Way I Feel

Black man
I am just a black man
They tryna go against my grain I need a cat scan
I don't want to end up dead like the last man
I took the time to tip toe through the troopers this the tap dance
I wish I could use racists in the past tense
Cops killing unarmed black men is tragic
Tired of saying my life matters to the masses
But they don't see color so let me grab some glasses
Just so I can help you see what's I see
People like to Yale I'm Brown just like an ivy
League of my own yes I put myself highly
But I swear you will never have your neck under my knee
Try me
What I say brings magic like Hermione
In the city helping the youth is where you'll find me
Me and the hood have a contract that is binding
I can leave but never forget and keep grinding

Seem like the system setup
To see us fed up
And anybody tried to change it they getting wet up
Meaning that they got lead up cause they ain't let up
Now the rich get richer even as the world ending
These private companies saved wit government spending
Let me need a handout
Uncle Sam he ain't lending
Just think about that and the message that they sendin'
Pull yourself up by your bootstraps that's offending
JP was down bad
Hit 'em wit the bail out
GM was lookin sad
Hit 'em wit the bail out
Delta Air was red flagged
Hit 'em wit the bail out
If you ain't to big to fail then you can get the hell out
But I should say less I don't really need the stress
As a black man in America
You know the rest
All these foul shootings
Don't nobody blame the refs
Imagine bein murdered then defamed for your death
