Black Man (feat. Quavo, Meek Mill & Rara)

Black man, drop top

There go the cops

There go the cops

There go the cops

Is it because of my people?

Is it because of my sneakers?

Is it because of my jersey?

Is it because that I'm perfect?

Riding down eighty-five, 3 in the morning

Why you pull me over say you smell marijuana? Smelling the gas

I said I got an ID, U got glaucoma, I got ID

He said, we ain't in Cali, ****, get out, throw your hands up

Running real hard, shook the taser, shook the taser

Running real hard, shook the taser, shook the taser

I told him, can we split it? We gon' shake 'em

**** hit my phone when you made it

Out of here, PJ to Jamaica

No, I ain't tell you wrong, get the paper

Been fighting too long against haters

My attitude, yeah I'm going for the shaders

Live from the cracks of the concrete

Twelve try to take a **** off the street

Make the gun sound off for Mike Brown

Take a **** life when you fade down

Hoodie gang strong like Trae Long

Gun by the window like Detroit Red

Bring that shit by the neck of my woods

And I bet a **** ass end up dead

Pig in a blanket, fuck was you thinking?

Free the ****, Boce, running at the police

Left him with a slow leak right outside VC

Tryna keep a Phantom like DC

Hanging out the G like free Meek

Kill a **** reaching for a cell phone

Hurt to tell his mama he ain't coming home

That's why I'm staying strapped all summer long

You know it

Black man, drop top

There go the cops

There go the cops

There go the cops

Is it because of my people?

Is it because of my sneakers?

Is it because of my jersey?

Is it because that you nervous? Damn

Black man running from the law like Pac Man

Try and throw the raw in the trashcan

Got smoked by a cop on the dash cam

Mug shot on the news, he a mad man

When all he did was hustle to run the cash in

He feeding kids in jail if he wasn't cracking

Too many felonies on my jacket

All of my brothers turn to assassins

We seen too many brothers put into caskets

Too many young baby mothers and baby daddies

In the graveyard back then

I went from sitting on club in the cashmere

You should've seen how I flossed on 'em last year

Too Maybachs and I had a bad year

Young **** counting money like a cashier

White man wanna pay me like I'm U and O

**** wanna see me at my funeral

Neither of my own homie wanna do me though

Laying on my dog crib like I'm Snoopy though

That my ****, I ain't even wanna do it though

If I don't do it, shit I know he gon' do me though

'Cause he broke and he tripping 'bout his stupid ho

But I'm a don just like motherfucking Julio

Black man

Black man, drop top

There go the cops

There go the cops

There go the cops

Is it because of my people?

Is it because of my sneakers?

Is it because of my jersey?

Is it because that I'm perfect?

Police see I got my hands up

Still wanna kill me, they don't understand us

They be looking for a reason just to shoot me

And wanna do me how they do us in the movies

Or how they do it out in Baton Rouge

Or Ferguson or Florida or Baltimore, they make excuses

Like I did it 'cause I thought he had a pistol

Or I did it 'cause I thought he was a Muslim

My message to America, felon or death here

The liquor we die, we just substances left here

First you put us in a small hood

And then you beat us and you treat us like it's all good

And then you shoot us and you screw us economically, mentally

Kill a **** no penalty, they can do that shit legally

Bet I can make that ass think 'fore they shoot

You kill me, man, there gon' be more of some rioting and looting

We say black lives matter, you say all lives

But y'all ain't the ones getting hogtied

Persecuted, executed, one day it gon' be time for retribution

Hope you don't ever see your son in an institution

I know karma is constant and God ain't no nonsense

You doing wrong just to run shit

One day the time gon' run out for the dumb shit

Ain't no deception, tryna get in heaven

You getting nailed, bet it's on Mary

And you know what you did for who

And what you really care and what you really felt

He gon' deny the opportunity to unify with people who look similar to you and I

'Cause he don't wanna have a

Black man, drop top

There go the cops

There go the cops

There go the cops

Is it because of my people?

Is it because of my sneakers?

Is it because of my jersey?

Is it because that you nervous?

Black man, drop top

There go the cops

There go the cops

There go the cops

Is it because of my people?

Is it because of my sneakers?

Is it because of my jersey?

Is it because that I'm perfect?
