The New Black Theory

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I can walk outside now and get shot down If you ever wondered why I'm hostile You can see the chief sending orders from the top down All the civil leaders looking docile Lord forgive him, maybe it's the dark forces in him. Or the Medicaid cost just hit him Or the evidence that all our history is getting washed out But everybody taking our style [Hook: Kemba & 2Pac] Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love [Verse 2] The most feared and most imitated Granddaughter love it, granddaddy hate it Brands pay top dollar to legally take it They strip it naked We recreate it Bitch this is basic, this came from love We made a civilization from mud We made a culture to break out the hood All niggas gave us was pistols and drugs. What! [Hook: Kemba & 2Pac] Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love Who the new black now? And even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love [Outro: Kemba] College professor gets locked up Student gets locked up What is the difference What am I missing If we all get looked at as monsters The Guilty and innocent End up in prison Why are we divided Why are we divided I can't see the logic Why are we divided
