(oh) Talkin' 'bout like how you like my songs, not knowin' it was me Security had me in a headlock and I told you I couldn't breathe Now it's Black Lives Matter and white letters on your shirt Now how many black lives did you help, or did you hurt? Did you handicap, block, push to excel or did you hinder? Since hindsight's 2020, I guess you don't remember Now you with your mixed child, havin' all these mixed feelings But do your black husband know you tried to burn down our village? But never mind, from the line, that's for y'all to figure out Just know that boy who wasn't shit bailed all his niggas out And it's my black queen, I kiss her on her black lips And she rock Off-White 'cause she support black shit And I'm blacker than a Steeler helmet or a Spike Lee flick Black like the pick stuck in the afro of Kaepernick
