b o b - new black lyrics

(verse)
tell me what it means (what?)
to be black, someone tell me what it means!
who i gotta vote for, who am i to be?
what car i gotta drive, where i gotta buy my jeans, black man?
if ya ain’t really hood, ya can’t be a black man
is it cuz i’m propa when i speak, black man?
should i be a chain and gold teeth black man?
or a martin luther king had a dream black man, a dream black man
ya really gotta practice what ya preach, black man!
how ya going to talk about peace, black man
when i got death threats on my screen, nah i’m not the enemy, black man
so who draws the first straw?
errybody hurt, who caused the first scar
cuz as soon as ya see n-gg-s get to fightin
ya be the first m-th-f-cka want to yell out world star!
can’t n-body else touch a n-gg-!
but it’s cool for a brutha just to bust a n-gg- (pow)
guns sold in erry hood, here, sland a dozen n-gg-s
gon’ kill yoself, while you’re at it, take a couple withya
and that don’t justify the cop sh-t (nah)
i’m just on some black mob sh-t
the best way to protest, hit em where it hurts, they pockets
it’s time to boyka sh-t
we need less rappers and more doctrines
we need less ballas and more prophets
we need more unity and less gossip
but who am i to speak, i neva went to college
i hate to be the bearer of bad news
but all of this double standard thinkin is taboo
if black hate is a myth, the term new black wouldn’t even exist!
i pray for tomorrow, i pray for the sorrow
i pray for the truth and i pray for chicago
i pray for detroit and i pray for oakland!
i pray for port au prince and i pray for new orleans
somebody let me know, how can i be a betta african american
like i ain’t grow up bein black in america
like i ain’t grow up around crack aids and heroin
d-mn!

(hook x4)
they don’t really know, black man
they don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really
they don’t really know, black man, black man, black man

(verse 2)
sim simma sim simma, ah, pour some liquor, for my n-gg-s ah
bust a swisher, roll a cigar
hitta, nother strip club, throw my income
well, i guess it’s all we know
hate is all we been taught, so that’s all we show
just a n-gg- from decatur, white as all our doors
even tho the days of dark, still we all got hope
so what’s the motive
we don’t control sh-t, cuz we don’t own sh-t
even in our own hoods, we ain’t voting
and not just for obama, but locally voting, that’s power!
rome wadn’t built in just an hour
can ya hear me? do i need to speak louder
christopher columbus ain’t the only one founder
they don’t mention n-gg-s that was on the mayflower
wait a second, let it soak, mind blown!
bobby ray from a different time zone
i dare to speak my mind, and i’m wrong?!
well shove it up yo -ss with a pinecone! (shove it!)
i’m tryna paint the bigger picture
ya looking for the enemy, then stare into the mirror
i said i’m trying to paint a bigger picture
ya lookin for the answer, then look into the mirror, black man!

(hook x4)
they don’t really know, black man
they don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really
they don’t really know, black man, black man, black man

(interlude)
i’m not even again, i’m not even against the whole movement
like i’m not even hating on it
it’s just, if we put that energy into ourselves
and into our community
and not so much into complainin about how we’ve been done wrong
and, and we have been done wrong, but it’s like
we gotta stop just saying the same thing and do somethin different
all this energy that we’re puttin into protesting
we should put it into our community
put it into start up businesses, put it into yo kids
put it into yo community, put it into start our own businesses
so we don’t have to support all these other businesses
feed the, f-ck, feed the homeless all year
do this all year, don’t just stop
don’t just stop after this case is over
