Artist：Ice Cube/Chuck D |

Verse One：Ice Cube |
|
Peace - don't make me laugh! |
|
All I hear is mother******s rappin sucotash |
|
Livin large, tellin me to get out the gang |
|
I'm a *************, gotta live by the trigger |
|
How the ************* do you figure? |
|
that I can say peace and the gunshots will cease?! |
|
Every cop killer goes ignored |
|
They just send another ************* to the morgue |
|
A point scored- they could give a ************* about us |
|
They rather catch us with guns and white powder |
|
If I was old, they'd probably be a friend of me |
|
Since I'm young, they consider me the enemy |
|
They kill ten of me to get the job correct |
|
To serve, protect, and break a *************s neck |
|
Cuz I'm the one with the trunk of funk |
|
And '************* tha Police' in the tape deck |
|
You should listen to me cuz there's more to see |
|
Call my neighborhood a ghetto cuz it houses minorities |
|
The other color don't know you can run but not hide |
|
These are tales from the darkside... |
|
Verse Two: |
|
You wanna free Africa, I stare at yuh |
|
Cuz we ain't got it too good in America |
|
I can't ************* with them overseas |
|
My homeboy died over a key of ************* |
|
It was plain and simple |
|
The 9mm went to the temple |
|
was the sound I put the ************* down |
|
And ran to the schoolyard bathroom |
|
Looked in the trash can yo it had room |
|
So I ducked my ass in it for a minute |
|
Covered with trash I had to lay back |
|
Mad as *************, thinkin' about the payback |
|
Tonite the crew gonna have a little fun |
|
I went home and cut the barrel of my shotgun |
|
It's gettin critical - I stole a 5.0 |
|
I let it go - drive real slow |
|
I yelled out 'Ice Cube sucka' |
|
The shot-gun kicked - and it murdered mother******s |
|
I told you last album |
|
when I got a sawed off, bodies are hauled off |
|
Its a shame, that *************s die young |
|
But to the light side it don't matter none |
|
It'll be a drive by homicide |
|
But to me its just another tale from the darkside... |
|
Verse Three: Chuck D |
|
Standing in the middle of war |
|
In the middle we flex |
|
When we die, we won't make +Jet+ |
|
+Ebony+ can't see to the lightside |
|
The term they apply to us is a ************* |
|
Call it what you want, cause I'm comin from the coroner |
|
Sayin my rhymes with a Ph.D. |
|
Who's black - don't wanna role - sells his soul |
|
Watch his head go rollin |
|
Who the ************* are they foolin? |
|
Nobody knows, but I suppose the color of my clothes |
|
Matches the color of the one on my face |
|
as they wonder whats under my waist |
|
[Standin on the verge] of them gettin brown |
|
thats a fact got a fear on their bozack |
|
Run, run, run, their ass off, they can not hide |
|
Yet Cube, they can't ************* with the darkside! |
