These lines will make you break you make you choose a side

1 (George)
your first rap show posted in the row
of a sea of white bent on supermanning that hoe
pretty soon you're buying fitted and high tops
pretending that you're black and rapping with the lights off
it's like a cyclops one closed eye
you can tell me that you're winking, but the grin lie
and no mouth supplies, what skin tone hides
about a thousand south as the jim crow flies
And then playing he said she said
I see red i peep a pink cheeked boston meathead
I go Bruce Lee
When I see him on the T up two seats
and say, "excuse me, but would you move if froze?"
you know the subway is the underground
lynch trees have the same white
check out my arms, I look like him

Let's you and I get one straight
The game never equal, ain't no food on my plate
I gave birth to this and you just it and co opted it and profited
and packaged it and wouldn't me half of it
Peep how I master this and break how you took it all
Raped the culture and you standing looking all
innocent, a mile when I give and inch
And how you getting rich, is it a
or is it You don't know your own privilege
You own riches and know what homeless is
You got a lot to learn before you think about
Hip hop, black culture and fitted you pickin out
in the street, I don't think so bro
My people ain't supportin your black history
So stop you doing we won't take it anymore
you come in my house wipe ya feet at the door

We ain't living in a that master built
If you understand that, tell people what you know
Because one of em got enough money to pay back you owe

Yes, My great had land, had slaves
I guess I pressed this record off the bank he
But I want independance, past the
but one down ass white boy pay for reparations

I'm running out of patience while you do the of Satan
Like an impulse. Edu Leedz Black history's an

Number one. I'm not. trying. to tell. your.
I just want to sit on my porch, drink a forty and
Number two, You can smell bullshit
I just hip hop
swear that's it

If you hip hop respect it
That the people who created it and paved the way for this
So you're making it

Well if you're talking on who's making it, I'll devil's advocate
A lot of black music has white dollars it
(Kweli's got it on lock)
Rupert Murdoch funded
You for the keys, then you better check the pockets

I'll be checking all right
As soon as it gets and all night

You taking out the and the mighty
