Wild Thing
Let the drums play
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Aye, It's not religion, psychiatrist twice a week
It not the devil, it's suppressed mental illness that got em weak
It's population control
Keep the blacks from getting old
So wisdom ain't never told
The ignorance getting bold
Who put legs on Big Ben, feel like my time running out
All this cop on black crime keep niggas from going out
Urban homophobia kept Tyler from coming out
Ignite some black unity, keep it from burning out
We the hood need to put ourselves on a financial diet
Conspicuous consumption, they don't even wanna try it
If it make us look rich, then we all gotta buy it
Two strings between us and wealth and we don't wanna tie it
Always hire black folks to a prison cell
Bill Clinton made sure all my niggas a sell well
Devil told me being black in America worse than hell
Jesus probably ain't coming back, his skin ain't pale
I just hope my little sister feel pretty inside this fake world
My girl don't she a pretty mixed light skin girl
6 years old talking about her hair too nappy
I hope her mama stop perming out her 4c curl
Let the drums play
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Let the drums play
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Two degrees make my parents proud to do list
On to my who are you list
Sallie calling I'm like who dis
Thousands in debt for parental respect living through me I guess
I can't live your regrets
Nothing major till they pick your major
Make you a doctor, lawyer,
engineer, some life saver
Picking at a nigga brain like what the fuck do I do
Looking at convict clientele like what the fuck we gonna do
And man, shout out the kids who made their parents half proud
They chose art school instead of vicarious routes
The ones who chose music school or star in a movie school
The ones on their who am I list, got so much to do
Don't wanna fake it til i make it like Bollywood
Pay off a couple debts if I go Hollywood
Party hard and come to class with a hangover
Aside from school right now I'm giving the game a makeover
Are you proud yet
Can you see me now
Are you proud yet
Can you see me now
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Let the drums play
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Let the drums play
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Let the drums play
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Let the boys cry
Let the kids sing
Be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
Be a wild thing
Can I be a wild thing
