Bad World (feat. Lil Stormin Stakk)
I am not a slave I am not a slave
The knowledge I obtain shifts the way I think
Take me from my land put me in a cage
Separate me from my tribe make me change my name
Put me against my brother for a piece of land
That we don't even own part of the plan
Situation getting worst we just tryna live
Feelin like we cursed for the color of our skin
Down bad only thing left to do is trap
Can't get no job gotta record shits all bad
Police patrolling lights flash don't move too fast
He'll pull you over put one in you go home to his fam
Ain't too far from slavery if you ask me work
For nothing die for nothing what does life mean
Ain't too far from slavery if you ask me work
For nothing die for nothing what does life mean
When did life get rough like this
When did life get tough like this
I am not a slave black man with a name kinda strange
That I'm stuck like this
Came in a boat wasn't no plane
Brain washed and the man took everything
Now A hitter with persuasion at close range
And if I strike back it's a closed thang
Close call with the law before I even knew
Been a victim and I couldn't even tie shoes
Jumped ship if I could even swim too
Cold shit no Eskimo or igloo
Take me back to where I'm from
Officer please I am no the one
Fuck your gun I ain't about to run
Don't Get to asking question like where I'm from
I love being black and I mean that
And you we know the white man don't like that
We just tryna make a way and get our life back
We was on the wrong train now we on the right track
So when did life get rough like this
When did life get tough like this
I am not a slave black man with a name kinda strange
That I'm stuck like this
The knowledge I obtain shifts the way I think
Take me from my land put me in a cage
Separate me from my tribe make me change my name
Put me against my brother for a piece of land
That we don't even own part of the plan
Situation getting worst we just tryna live
Feelin like we cursed for the color of our skin
Down bad only thing left to do is trap
Can't get no job gotta record shits all bad
Police patrolling lights flash don't move too fast
He'll pull you over put one in you go home to his fam
Ain't too far from slavery if you ask me work
For nothing die for nothing what does life mean
Ain't too far from slavery if you ask me work
For nothing die for nothing what does life mean
When did life get rough like this
When did life get tough like this
I am not a slave black man with a name kinda strange
That I'm stuck like this
Came in a boat wasn't no plane
Brain washed and the man took everything
Now A hitter with persuasion at close range
And if I strike back it's a closed thang
Close call with the law before I even knew
Been a victim and I couldn't even tie shoes
Jumped ship if I could even swim too
Cold shit no Eskimo or igloo
Take me back to where I'm from
Officer please I am no the one
Fuck your gun I ain't about to run
Don't Get to asking question like where I'm from
I love being black and I mean that
And you we know the white man don't like that
We just tryna make a way and get our life back
We was on the wrong train now we on the right track
So when did life get rough like this
When did life get tough like this
I am not a slave black man with a name kinda strange
That I'm stuck like this
