Mookie2blk - Survive

I still ride
Thru a city where a nigga never know when he gone die

I survive
In a country where a nigga never know when he gone die

All these police killings gotta nigga driving timid
Windows still tented 10 percent below the limit
Flirt wit white women but know what happen to Emmit
Till
Rubber grip on the magnum staying concealed
I hope this CCW dont get a nigga killed
For real
I need it for them niggas round the block
State wont give us jobs so its trappin nonstop
Dont do black on black crime but try to rob me you get shot

What if a nigga killed a cop justifiably
Would he be labeled as a menace to society
You ain't gone make it out alive
When the rest of them pigs show up its body for body just like the hood
Corrupt legal system more gangster then the hood
We go to war for money like the mutha fuckin hood
And uh
The president think ima son of a bitch
Then all blacks need to get up out the army ya bitch

I still ride
Thru a city where a nigga never know when he gone die

I survive
In a country where a nigga never know when he gone die

Woke up this morning feeling less then a man
My son told me he dont wana go to school in his skin
White kids tellin him they can not be his friend
I understand this is something that you dont understand
But them kids raised by some idiots understand
There's no better feeling then being a smart black man
Uh
Take pride in who you are on the outside
Make them ashamed be genuine on the inside
Living our fears and that's what made ya mom cry
When I was young I got abandoned by my own kind
Picked on cuz I ain't rock they favorite clothing line
Look at me now they doing bad and I'm gone shine
Ain't have a father at ya age but he was on time
Looking at you make it easy to make the pen glide
And if I die before you really get to know me
Black mirror is the image I'm upholding

I still ride
Thru a city where a nigga never know when he gone die

I survive
In a country where a nigga never know when he gone die
