Forget this chain, ‘cause this ain’t me
Although I’m eternally grateful to Jay-Z
We’re so elated, we celebrated like obama waited until his last day in office to tell the nation brothers is gettin’ their reparations, hey
A man can dream, can't he?
No disrespect, in terms of change, I haven’t seen any
Maybe he had good intentions but was stifled by the system
And was sad to learn he actually couldn’t bring any
That’s what I get for thinking this world is fair
They let a brother steer the ship, and never told him that the ship was sinkin'
But I got other things to think about, like my bank account
Forget that watch you paid too much for it, you ought to be ashamed
When brothers back home be dreadin' when the seasons change
‘cause they ain’t got no heat
And they ain’t got no AC, Walmart Distribution
Fired my homie, he just had a baby
You wonder why there’s been so many B&E’s lately
Why brothers from the hood shootin’ like this is TNT lately
And since all the ballers leaving college early
I turn on the tv and don’t see no brothers with degrees lately
