[Verse 1: Lady Scribe]
My People Went From..
Saturday Cartoons, Costumes and CoCo Puffs
To Them PoPo's, "Negro Polo"
Got My People Dogging Cuffs
Black Male 6'0
But When Flawed Laws That They Make Up
Conjunct With Punctured Social Scopes
So Are All Of Us
A Close Up
Hair That Extends, But Trust
Not By That Much, And It Locks
So On Spot 5-0 Lock That Nigga Up
He's Wearing Polo Identical To The Logo On My Stuff
Coincidental That As People They Don't Differentiate Us
Offspring Went From Being Beings
Now We Just Things That Disrupt
Our Kids Went From Screaming
'Toys!' To 'Trayvon R US"
And It Hurts
Treat Us As Dirt
Like We Not All Carved Of Dust
I Got A Passion For Ice
That I Suffice My Christ As Cover Up
But See They Lock Our Limbs In Cuffs
So We Can't Run From They Convictions
They FK My People Over
That's Why We Shoulder Our Commitments
Anything I Swear They Scheme For Things To Keep My Kin In Prison
'Cuz When The White Man Did It Abolished Prohibitions On Liquor
But When The Black Kids In It They Acknowledge
Our Struggle As Sinning
Say That They Helping Out Our Spirits
So They Bails Hail As Our Penance
That's Why Our
Brain Cells Non Existent
We Inhale
'Cuz We In It
And Even When We Plea Forgiveness
We Still Flee To Diamond Pendants
Jesus Died On Wood
I Wish You Would Stop Forgetting
'Cuz The Way They Paint His Ending
Is As If His Punishment Was Pimpish
Maybe If He Was Slain More Humane
They Wouldn't Be Ashamed To Claim Forgiveness
'Cuz When They Hung My Savoir Up
Them Punks Ain't Show Him No Significance
So Through This Walk Of Life
I Don't Expect Y'all To Really Listen
I Just Pray That When I Go
Y'all Don't Whine, But Rewind My Lyrics...
Don't Whine, But Rewind My Lyrics...
Don't Whine, But Rewind My...Uh..
