Best American

Lyrics

Hey, I'm just doing everything that I can (I can)
 Never been jealous of the white man
 Black skin, I'm not better, I'm just different
 He ain't never sold drugs, this is all a false image, hey
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under sieze boy, that's how we do
 And they know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize nigga, that's how we do
 And you know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 Pay a load of tax, take it out your check
 Boy, I know you know this debt
 Til you hesitate and right before you purchase that
 New chain, new fame, original black
 We are well-anointed with the knowledge of the slaves
 Land of the free, yeah, home of the brave
 Hard to close my eyes at night, I'm dreamin' of the day
 Dark terrors in the ferry, turn the world grey
 Somehow we gotta pray, it ain't 'bout religious praise
 This is real shit, nigga this is not a phase
 Born afflicted, misinformed children on the way
 Eyes teary, blind feary, cryin' to be saved
 Find another way, while escapin', a rude awakenin'
 While we caged in, abomination
 Clean water for the cavemen, salutations
 Signin' off with a molotov, throwing salt
 While we marchin' off for the common cause
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize boy, that's how we do
 And they know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize nigga, that's how we do
 And they know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 This a new world, artificial
 Second brain in my pocket, tell me how that live through
 Y'all don't hear me
 Unless I talk about my skin tone, and what comes with it
 If you live it then you stand strong, that's how we do it
 Ain't no father figure, live n' learn
 Gotta get the money little nigga making earns
 Another day, another cop killed an honest man
 Black skin, young-aged, probably had a kid, it never ends
 They say government control the weather
 How we bustin' all these guns but we can't get together
 Start a, and make that bread together
 Are they crooks, are they pedophiles or politicians
 Plottin' FDA poisonin' our children now
 That's how we living, throwing niggas in prison
 Unlivable conditions, repeat offender
 Brown, broke
 That's the agenda, never surrender
 Keep your eyes wide shut, nicca
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize boy, that's how we do
 And they know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize nigga, that's how we do
 And you know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 Say "God bless America"
 To the red, white, blue noose on my neck, wylin' for respect
 Guess freedom ain't free, huh?
 Really wanna see a difference, kill some politicians
 Red men get executed and forgotten
 Black men spent 200 years pickin' cotton
 Now they poison our minds and put shackles on our conscious
 But they will never get mine, never get mine, dawg I promise
 Black American Psycho, ya like Tae-Bo, ya might just get
 American ream be double up the money with no minusin'
 Hate is a disease with no paradise they can't find that shit
 Honestly this shit here's wave make climate shatter thermometers
 Promise my mama, I see mañana, no matter what it is
 Coppers be killin' niggas for nada, that shit gotta end
 You probably think slavery's abolished homie they got your brain
 Never forget what they did to the man with the moccasin
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize boy, that's how we do
 And they know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 Who's the best American? Is it you?
 And I say never love again, but I do
 Whole planet under seize nigga, that's how we do
 And you know we keep a blind eye to hide the truth
 We are all the problem, when we don't make sure our dollars stay in our communities for more than six hours
 We are all the problem when we don't make sure that our children are safe going to the public school, to prison pipeline
 We are all the problem when we don't hold school, our children, after school
 We are all the problem when we lay down and expect somebody else to do the work for us
 We are all the problem when we don't stand up to oppression
 We are all the problem if we go back into slavery
 That makes us all the problem
