| [00:01.19] | Don't want the world to see me |
| [00:08.50] | Don't think that they'd understand |
| [00:15.56] | Everything's meant to be broken |
| [00:22.56] | Want you to know who I am |
| [00:27.94] | |
| [00:34.22] | I see myself in the mirror, but I don't see nothing |
| [00:36.32] | |
| [00:40.61] | If you understand what I'm seeing please tell me something |
| [00:45.55] | When you black, the media make you wonder why |
| [00:54.60] | I need to learn... |
| [00:55.66] | My lifetime came from struggle |
| [01:00.03] | All I've seen is what I follow |
| [01:01.85] | My skin color, automatic transaction |
| [01:05.04] | I'm already classified, no second chance |
| [01:08.85] | Taught to feel nappy hands, little grade |
| [01:11.72] | Why can't I sag when it's just a style |
| [01:15.04] | Grown beard, black hoodie, and I'm all good |
| [01:18.48] | People judge before they even know me |
| [01:20.91] | Stare at me, don't know I'm lonely |
| [01:23.60] | Outside's front these stares from police |
| [01:26.47] | And I get the bad rap because another man that just looks like me |
| [01:31.80] | Think life's a movie like Spike Lee |
| [01:34.49] | Too cool like Ice T |
| [01:36.30] | Yeah, I move with Life's Peace, and he move with the gun piece |
| [01:39.68] | So there's no peace |
| [01:41.55] | I gotta go to the hood, all I see is |
| [01:44.18] | Divided, the freshest schizophrenics |
| [01:47.37] | Men pimping women, people losing vision |
| [01:49.93] | Given choices before she started living |
| [01:52.75] | I hate myself |
| [01:53.55] | |
| [01:54.18] | Don't want the world to see me |
| [02:01.25] | Don't think that they'd understand |
| [02:08.24] | Everything's meant to be broken |
| [02:12.49] | Want you to know who I am |
| [02:19.74] | |
| [02:22.99] | I see myself in the mirror, but I don't see nothing |
| [02:24.95] | If you understand what I'm seeing please tell me something |
| [02:28.45] | When you black, the media make you wonder why |
| [02:29.57] | I just need my history, because I hate myself |
| [02:30.90] | It makes me sad to see pimping like I'm at a battle with my surroundings |
| [02:32.15] | Everybody do it, but not really |
| [02:33.03] | And I couldn't imagine my momma |
| [02:33.40] | Universal knowledge is karma |
| [02:34.15] | I see young girls hanging off the corner |
| [02:37.15] | And they searching for love in the wrong space |
| [02:40.21] | Gave her mind to a pimp, now he's changing faces |
| [02:43.78] | Sometimes I just wish I could trade places |
| [02:47.56] | I hate myself for being taught the roots of the hood |
| [02:51.25] | Which don't matter, no respect and no love |
| [02:54.63] | That got jailed for the real thugs |
| [02:57.06] | And I'm sorry to all the innocent in prison |
| [03:00.00] | You get a second chance when you free or in heaven |
| [03:03.75] | I promise if you really love and you watch your steps |
| [03:07.88] | Respect everybody, man you will get blessed |
| [03:11.45] | Get your point across without violence |
| [03:14.22] | The black dying by the gun, I'm tired of crying |
| [03:16.78] | I hate myself |
| [03:18.22] | |
| [03:18.85] | Don't want the world to see me |
| [03:27.62] | Don't think that they'd understand |
| [03:33.37] | Everything's meant to be broken |
| [03:38.35] | Want you to know who I am |
