[02:15.47] | what you bout bitch |
[02:17.09] | excuse my french emotion in my passion |
[02:19.96] | but I wear my heart on my sleeve like it's the new fashion |
[02:23.90] | what are you asking, if i don't have the answer |
[02:27.03] | it's probably on the web, like i'm a damn tarantula |
[02:30.40] | but i know you don't understand, cuz you thought lil wayne is weezy |
[02:35.27] | but weezy is dwayne |
[02:37.03] | i'm just a soul whose intentions are good |
[02:42.03] | O lord please don't let me be misunderstood |
[02:45.90] | I was watching t.v. the other day right |
[02:56.08] | got this white guy up there talking about black guys |
[03:01.52] | talking about how young black guys are targeted |
[03:06.46] | targeted by who? america |
[03:11.15] | you see one in every 100 americans are locked up |
[03:19.59] | one in every 9 black americans are locked up |
[03:23.65] | and see what the white guy was trying to stress was that |
[03:29.15] | the money we spend on sending a mothaf**ka to jail |
[03:35.58] | a young mothaf**ka to jail |
[03:38.21] | would be less to send his or her young ass to college |
[03:46.52] | see, and another thing the white guy was stressing was that |
[03:50.90] | our jails are populated with drug dealers, you know crack/cocaine stuff like that |
[03:58.02] | meaning due to the laws we have on crack/cocaine and regular cocaine |
[04:03.90] | police are only, i don't want to say only right, but shit |
[04:13.02] | only logic by riding around in the hood all day |
[04:18.27] | and not in the suburbs |
[04:19.83] | because crack cocaine is mostly found in the hood |
[04:24.95] | and you know the other thing is mostly found in you know where i'm going |
[04:32.14] | but why bring a mothaf**ka to jail if it's not gon stand up in court |
[04:37.14] | cuz this drug aint that drug, you know level 3, level 4 drug, shit like that |
[04:46.77] | i guess it's all a misunderstanding |
[04:49.46] | i sit back and think, you know us young mothaf**kas you know that 1 in 9 |
[04:58.52] | we probably only selling the crack cocaine because we in the hood |
[05:02.33] | and it's not like in the suburbs, we don't have what you have |
[05:06.02] | why? i really don't wanna know the answer |
[05:09.08] | i guess we just misunderstood hunh |
[05:13.33] | you know we don't have room in the jail now for the real mothaf**kas, the real criminals |
[05:18.51] | sex offenders, rapists serial killers, s**t like that |
[05:29.02] | don't get scared, don't get scared |
[05:34.20] | I know you saw one them sex offenders papers |

[06:05.70] | you understand me and why the f**k would you bring my neighbor to jail |
[06:13.22] | jus because the reason why he live next door to me, ain’t the reason why I live next door to him |
[06:20.79] | Meaning he didn’t rap his way to my f**king neighborhood |
[06:24.66] | he sold crack cocaine to get to my neighborhood |
[06:28.04] | you move him out bring him to jail for life |
[06:33.22] | and then you move in with a sex offender |
[06:35.54] | ahaha, hey give me a paper, |

[06:45.60] | another thing, let me take my glasses off |

[07:14.41] | rather unhuman, I should say |
[07:17.84] | I mean giving the fact that humanity were a good humanity |
[07:21.34] | rather to me is helping one another |
[07:24.66] | no matter your color or race |
[07:27.41] | but this guy and people like him, they’d rather speculate before they informate |
[07:31.91] | if that’s a word, ha-haahha you know spec before check |

[06:05.70] | you understand me and why the f k would you bring my neighbor to jail |
[06:13.22] | jus because the reason why he live next door to me, ain' t the reason why I live next door to him |
[06:20.79] | Meaning he didn' t rap his way to my f king neighborhood |

[06:48.85] | cause I wanna see the reaction on their faces when I say this |
[06:54.85] | uhh Mr Al Sharpton, this is why I don' t respect you and nobody like ya |
[07:04.34] | see you' re the type that gets off on getting on other people |
[07:10.03] | that' s not good |
[07:13.91] | no homo, |
[07:14.41] | rather unhuman, I should say |
[07:17.84] | I mean giving the fact that humanity were a good humanity |
[07:21.34] | rather to me is helping one another |
[07:24.66] | no matter your color or race |
[07:27.41] | but this guy and people like him, they' d rather speculate before they informate |
[07:31.91] | if that' s a word, hahaahha you know spec before check |
[07:37.72] | anyways meaning id much rather |
[07:42.59] | you talk to me first and see if you can lend an opinion before you link one |
[07:51.07] | just my thought of good humanity, Mr. Sharpton, hold on I aint finished with you man |
[08:01.38] | na f k that shit Mhm hold on, um, |
[08:06.69] | Mr. sharpton and anyone like you, you don' t know me |
[08:09.93] | so if your not going to try to then what you say or think about me |
[08:19.07] | are what ever I do is totally Casper the friendly ghost, |
[08:24.00] | to me, and it doesn' t make you a good person to criticize before you improvise |
[08:29.50] | doesn' t necessarily make you a bad person either but the characteristics fall heavily into bads way, |
[08:34.63] | ahah but since I am human I am good and bad, as well but I try my hardest to stay good |
[08:39.93] | some of the things I do and say may be bad or just not to good |
[08:44.50] | but I do try, so with that said I don' t fault you, I mean your only human, good or bad |
[08:51.63] | but I also don' t respect you and I don' t care if that' s good or bad |
[08:58.01] | you see you are no MLK you are no Jesse Jackson, you are nobody, to me, your just another don king, |
[09:05.26] | with a perm, hahah just a little more political, and that just means you' re a little unhuman |
[09:14.95] | than us humans, and now let me be human and say, f k Al Sharpton and anyone like him |
[09:22.07] | f k if you understand me |
[09:27.19] | I love being misunderstood |
[09:28.26] | haha why?, |
