See a young black man and they scared to death Of the way that I talk and the way I dress "Why his pants so low?" Why he ain't all prep You can view in the news, boo, they all threats Don't trust them dudes they don't pay off debts Just drop out of school and wait on checks Ain't nothing but a thug, bet they all strapped Just waste of a space thinking they all that Until you signed to the big leagues Now they intrigued See you on the tube, you're a star of the big screen That's different though You ain't just a "nigga" no more, you're famous See how that changes You ain't just dangerous, now you're THE MAN At first they was afraid of you, now they're your fans Go to the top and be all that you can You've got the world in the palm of your hand You're MORE than black, you're a superstar With the nicest clothes and the smoothest cars Get awards and such with the oohs and ahhs That's when they hit you with the coup de grace Got play by the rules or get the hues involved Forget how you sing or you're shooting a ball You're just like the rest of em Who woulda thought Showtime, nigga. Now cue the applause Now dance for the cameras. Get the ratings Run this touchdown and entertain me Make this moola, forget the babies Drink this champagne and quit complaining Nothing's changing, it all revolves Throw something shiny at them. Problem solved If he steps out of line just call the Law Now back to the hood where you all belong Peace You sing the songs that'll make em sing along now they wanna bring you home I bet they love you now You making cream you the flyest on the scene and they promise all your dreams I bet they love you now They like your stroll how you speak from your soul but they wanna take control I bet they love you now I bet they love you now Look out for that one The hood with the hood yea the black one Black cat with the black backpack on Backpack full of raps that he snaps on If they didn't judge us by the surface They'll see his words was truth with a passion And the way he rocks a beat should keep his butt out the street All he needs is a platform See as long as I still kick raps you can deal with the fact That we opposite of flesh tones And the white folks trip when the rest of us come Not too many best just one See while you're on top in the spotlight Got whites swearing up and down you're the best one But if a nigga ever were to pause on a rap jump off bandwagon to the next one See the problem is a matter of discussion but Does it really even matter no question It's best that we make it the def-est year yet Pulling up rocking the freshest gear yet Long as y'all saying the mic is on fire I'ma snatch one of your whites only pies If not, that's great I'll go circulate the dollar round my cause that's just wise Wonder what you talk about when that door is closed Hey have you ever heard of so and so I don't really listen to rap but he's so swell He's never been to jail and he speak so well You must be so impressed If you saw me at the corner store would you show respect Windows would roll and them doors would lock and that's it I never sweat being relevant Rather quit You sing the songs that'll make em sing along now they wanna bring you home I bet they love you now You making cream you the flyest on the scene and they promise all your dreams I bet they love you now They like your stroll how you speak from your soul but they wanna take control I bet they love you now I bet they love you now
