Is it Im black?
Is it because Im

When you black you got to hustle, got to struggle and
And not cat that goes through that struggle survive
But he got to stay stronger and the struggle alive
They say the struggle died, I say the revived

Hey you, my is going through oppression
Thats why Im so and I'm working with no rest
And no question fight for y'all 'cause I dont like it y'all
We make half as much as them, we twice as hard y'all

It fair sometimes you see and hear the signs
I Farachan but I got knowledge and Im sharing mines
I swear it's time to be aware that fear you mind
And they fear heart, you want to change here's the start

Im tired of cops outline my peers and y'all
Im trying to make a move, Im not tryin' to make the
They say the consequences when we break the rules
To get back and you got to make a sacrifice

For they had a plan we let them executed
Everyday another getting executed
And all our artist arrested I expect improvement
Its a message in the music, I you use it

Somebody tell me can I do
Will I survive or I die?

On the streets hard to survive why, is it because Im black?
Hot Shot got rock, I bring my cousin back

But Clyde me another try 'cause I wasnt whack

And now I'm buzzin' back, yeah, I got my back
Renegotiating got a mil to do a tracks
Yeah, Im only reason is because I rap
My homies only reason is because of crack

They can't get a job so niggas quick to rob
Quick to steal, quick to kill, the steal, quick to ride

These politician, they got us hypnotized

'Cause if we keep em they just goin' keep control
And hold our sisters and in the pen
And we was guilty 'cause the color of our skin

Is it Im black?
