The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We will be here forever

Do you understand?

Forever and ever and ever and ever

Hey, this black man made it in America

Basketball and rap attract kids to get the hell out the area

Nowadays, niggas kill when you get ahead of them

So I back-track and get 'em some act right

'Cause they confused the rap life for a trap life

Mentally, I ain't rap tight

You fuck with me, your situation turn to roy jones' last fight

This money music, that mean you get offended

These words like liquor when I'm bartending

Mama taught me well, she hold a hammer for me

She pray for me when I get it, it's mandatory (mandatory)

Call me big unc and I'll cosign ya

Bankrolls, rolling blunts, I'll be your role model

Drug addicts go cold chicken

They veins pop out, they say: Red, feed me what I ain't gettin'

I can get in my car and get out

And the same song is on when I get back in and get out

Check my archives, my stage show is like a bar fight

You want it, had to write sean price

I'm a legend, don't call me old-school

I move niggas like they building in a whole foods

And you gotta be ready for drama

Especially, when bloods and crips is livin' by your mama, I'm breathless

Reality speaking, dem all baby

Legendary, man ah bust it from the 80s

Dem fi know me head sicker than rabies

Black in America, yeah, don't play me

When we ah step, dem swear see ah di navy

Revolution kick off like inna '80

Dem fi know me head sicker than rabies

Black in America, yeah, just pay me

Hey, this black man made it in America

Facts, my blood kill live rats

I'm one like a snowflake

Abstract, that's why I take her to that mad max

And I grew up across from cemetery

That's why my commentary sound like your obituary

Grown man talk, we got our denzel on

I told ll I'm just getting warm (nigga, haaa)

Nigga, tristate, when niggas dying over bullets or they prostate

And cops against blacks never gon' migrate

I ain't gettin' shot, they try to pull me over, I turn it to a car chase

These little kids in the gang violence

Artists gettin' called hip-hop but they ain't rhyming

Ya'll voted for 'em, now they a rockstar

I feel like a black film tryna get an Oscar

God, forgive me for my sins

You dealt me these cards so I'm gon' play it to win

And I'm tryna get forty more haters

So I can sign 'em on to the reggie, I hate 'em but glad he made it, I'm breathless

Reality speaking, dem all baby

Legendary, man ah bust it from the 80s

Dem fi know me head sicker than rabies

Black in America, yeah, don't play me

When we ah step, dem swear see ah di navy

Revolution kick off like inna '80

Dem fi know me head sicker than rabies

Black in America, yeah, just pay me

Hey, this black man made it in America

Can you believe how I did it?

I had faith and had God as my witness

I couldn't just be an artist, I had to learn the business

And haters on the side, they tried to sell me wolf tickets

But I'm still relevant, me and rap, we got a life sentence

Success is like a bank loan, it's hard to get

I worked hard for everything, I wasn't offered it

And it's up to me to show my babies how to be a boss

I teach 'em how to win, but also how to take a loss

And education is key but nowadays

I'd advise you to learn a trade and not depend on a college degree

I sold drugs but I don't have no story to tell

'Cause music always was my life, patti labelle

As long as I love, you get honor and dedication

And fuck the media interrogating, I'm breathless

You see it on the news, you see it on social media

But when you a black man in America

It's very scary and terrifying, believe me

Sometimes I wonder

Will there ever be equality for a black man in America

I doubt it
