The mind such a terrible thing to waste And I don't even know what to think today We all got American dreams to chase Forty acres an a mule they ain't teachin this in school yo Cold wind blow through my souls window We got Wade vs Roe And the new Jim Crow Constitutional code all the wrongs we've wrote Sick of seeing five zero off another camera phone Sound like the beast that's the sound of police Put a target on a king make him bargain for a plea Used to toss them in the sea now you toss away the keys Might plant it under seats just to give you strike three Sign of white privilege more silent politicians Another homicide victim just a modern day lynching We got cotton in the stitching got a sweat shop system In a private stock prison Kind of over crowded is it Look birth of a nation through mass incarceration Cop car feeling Like a ride on the slave ship Twenty five to life in a cage I'll say Who made America great when it was built by slaves I'll never understand the pain to have a slave last name Or be the product of rape in this white mans game Shit is deep strange fruit hanging on the tree Tiki torch reeks of that tall white sheet And I don't like the smell of it clansmen delegates Donkey or an elephant prolly both confederate Another false narrative rebel flag heritage Blood line marriages made an American They don't get the bigger picture Gotta tell another white friend not to say Go figure Only see a baller or a stripper A rapper or a dealer Yet you still get triggered I'm so tired of the white lie bias Same thing you want to pass down to you child What about the poets and the scholars Inventors and the authors Supreme leading freedom fighting martyrs That's real black excellence This the remembrance No more censorship welfare spending it Health care plan don't plan for its citizens Cell block resembling The project building But they say it's for the greater good Gentrify the neighborhood Want to raise rent but not everybody's paper good Whitey on the moon they be whiting out the truth And they lied to me too wasnt nothing I could do It's more than just having a black friend or singing and rapping Or knowing every hip hop classic Who's willing to kneel march out in the field Through any ordeal just to see how it feels Man I'm sick of fake activist They delay the catalyst Blind eye pacifist bitching about Kaepernick They ain't really down for the haul Loot the capitol lawn Sabotaging the cause Now they calling SWAT
