Oh no, oh no Oh no, oh no, oh no Oh no, oh no, oh no I wake up feeling like I am the coldest nigga breathing Look in the mirror like goddamn I know they wanna be him I wake up feeling like I am the realest nigga walking So watch your step and watch that shit you're talking, okay? (Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay) So watch the shit that you say, okay? (Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay) So watch the shit that you say On 65 I tell the truth, no lies (I tell the truth no lies) The sheets and crosses turned to suits and ties (They turn to suits and ties) In Black America, can you survive? (How well do you survive?) They made a nuisance once the noose is tied (Soon as the noose was tied) We gentrified, we victimized, we fighting for survival (Survival) No hopes and dreams, just leave us be, we leanin' on the bible They preyin' on us, prayin' for a better day tomorrow Hide the fear behind this here bravado I wake up feeling like I am the coldest nigga breathing Look in the mirror like goddamn I know they wanna be him I wake up feeling like I am the realest nigga walking So watch your step and watch that shit you're talking, okay?

(What are you saying) Don't shake my hand unless you're passin' payment (Passing my payment) Keep your salutations, need my forty acres (Why why why) Why they hate us? Why they want to rape us for our culture? They greet us, feed us, bleed us, then they leave us for the vultures They break the grill, get off with millions, tryna to break their focus More tan the man to mow a lawn, of hopeless I wake up feeling like I am the coldest nigga breathing Look in the mirror like goddamn I know they wanna be him I wake up feeling like I am the realest nigga walking So watch your step and watch that shit you're talking, okay? (Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay) So watch the shit that you say, okay? (Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay) So watch the shit that you say
