Like Me

Mouth is dry, 'bout to die

Spoke in public, rope is tuggin'

Chokin' 'cause the ones that love to

Stand beside ya stayin' silent for survival

Open Bible, left to right

Body swangin', grip the knife

Body painted, cut ya privates

Sell your brother, rape your daughter

Beat your mother, kill your father

Why we slavin'? We some pagans

Beat us brainless, speak their language

Leave the names our teacher gave us

Jesus, save us, need some prayers

Preacher raise us, demon break us

Deep in anguish, feed us bacon

Even take our screamin' babies

We the bait to feed the gators

Read the paper, see the mayor

Lead the racist beamin' hatred

Toward the colors, wrong to love us

Mournin' mother, seed is taken

Need an angel, dream the day of free escapin'

Leave the cages, all the dungeons

Duck for cover, speed to chase us

Under tunnels, dogs are runnin'

Cops are comin' on the horses

We can make it, heat is blazin'

Road is tougher, warnin' others

Keep from faintin' from the pressure

Got me stressin', will they catch us?

Things don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me, like me)

Don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me, like me)

Don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me)

Don't look good if you look like

Don't look good if you look like me

Five hundred years later, no crime when they shot us

Baby mama knocked up, baby daddy locked up

Runnin' on the block 'cause I'm gettin' sick of master

Where I'm from **** ain't thinkin' 'bout a Master's

Thinkin' 'bout a Bachelor's, wanna be a bachelor

Legendary rapper but still don't own the masters

Get the money fast, but we spend the money faster

Trouble never pass us, I'm talkin' to the pastor

Dumpin' my advance, I never trust the gift (Yeah)

Never trust myself, shit's fuckin' my advancement

Never trust the bank, no, tuck it under mattress

Never trust a pig, fuck 'em, bussin' at the badges

Bussin' out a bando, what the fuck you sayin' though?

Gotta move the keys, a piano, locksmith

Left without a culture, we ain't got shit

Stand for the lost get us found, what's the plan, though?

Things don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me, like me)

Don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me, like me)

Don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me)

Don't look good if you look like

Don't look good if you look like me

(Like me, like me, like me, like me)

(Don't look good if you look like me)

(Don't look good if you look like me)

(Like me)

You made me change my fuckin' name

You fuckin' crazy?

Robbed us of everything that made us who we are

Fuck you

'Cause I don't look like you?

Why the fuck would I look like you?

When I could look like me?

(Like me, like me, like me, like me)
