It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black They love our skin and bones Til it's time to get a business loan Gang nem ready to get it on You not from where they from So it's one in ya dome The law keep they fingers on the trigger Cause to them I'm just another nigga Here come the preacher man With another scripture Man them verses Ain't gonna stop them folks From wanna kill ya Damn we got it bad Literally watching Every car that pass Use to be human Now I'm viewed as a money bag Can tell by your posture The question that you gonna ask Brothers killing each other Over this sucker shit Y'all keep killing each other None of us gon exist The streets breaking the codes The freaks breaking up homes Against all odds We made it this long On top of all that It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black Yea don't know how it feel on your side But we can't catch a break The whites discriminate And blacks willing to catch a case Kill you cause they can't articulate That they feel a way The Reaper tired of da hood Can't even pick a day to get away I think it's very sad If you close to me and you envy me But time gonna expose What you didn't say It be your own kind That be the messiest That's why I start doing business With the Mexicans Too many black men insecure and pessimist That type of King Will turn a Kingdom desolate Being black in America leave us numb You think I'm finna cry over this dog I'm not the one Man shout out to the drug dealers The FDA and thug niggaz Which one you gonna judge nigga You know what never mind That conversation gon take up too much of my time It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black I'm sick of us being silent and I often wonder what will happen If every time we heard sirens We was the first to start firing You think then they'll start hiring Some black cops With sense enough to start Doing shit to these white kids The way them white people Did Emmett Till When he just whistled at a white bitch I mean cause when the last time You heard of a white cop Shooting a black kid And have to pay for it When is a black cop Gon shoot a white kid and say I thought he had a gun But damn that's a skateboard See that ain't gon happen Y'all and they know it Now they'll say I'm full of hate But wait they killing our ass At a rapid rate And always turn around and Say it's a mistake No that was a cell phone But it's too late Cause that's another black male gone Killed packed up shipped And just mailed home All I'm doing is asking What the hell wrong Why are we sitting still While our children being killed Grandma got to pay for the funeral But she can barely pay her bills Yea this shit real Now I ain't saying that we innocent Cause I know We that we can act militant All I'm saying is Let's get together and end this shit They started it let's finish it Cause for too long Have they walked through our blood Only to change their shoes Pretty soon They gonna put our murders on tape Just to see How many hits they can get on Youtube Cause when they kill us it's no crime They get suspended without pay And come back and get overtime So why are we continuing To being hesitant Is it now Because we got a black president Like all of a sudden He gonna push a button And they gon give all our black ass One big settlement Now if you waiting on that Or if you accept that Everything I just said is fucking irrelevant It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black It's Hard Being Black
