"You white and I'm Black. If white people have a party tonight and Black people have a party. The party would be 100 percent different. The music. I go to a white restaurant, we integrated today right, you go in a white restaurant, you gotta look all day on the jukebox to find some music-"
"No, no, no. At our party we'll have Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder- "
"Hold on, lemme tell ya now. If I go play a jukebox in a white restaurant, anybody Black'll tell ya, you gotta look all over that box for some Black music."
Need that 2000 tatted on me
A matrimony to whеre I learned 'bout
My catеgory
The back and forths of the
Matador shit they trampled on me
Through acrimony and happiness
Through the ceremonies
Where I heard those train tracks sing
Hoopin' through hoops and obstacles
That jeopardized my heart
Corner store chronicles
Daddy said don’t you wander off
Either doggin' a bitch or
Gettin' bitched by a dog
Look
Had my head straight
Lookin' back I shoulda been in
More trouble
Woulda learned more about life
Than I had did in that bubble
Oftentimes I catch myself
Missin that 19th and Erie
Or that crib in Tioga
Had to learn 'bout composure
Cause any second I was down
To tell *blank* to get the toaster
Coulda been a fuckin wanted poster
Really I wanted closure
And the knuckleheads offered that
I wonder if it’s still love when
I go back
