Black Privilege 2

The biggest lie the devil told was that he didn't exist
 That we accepted a second class status and didn't resist
 That white privilege was something made up like science fiction
 That American is wasn't built on the back of a violent system
 But our gut told us different see the color of this body
 Made this lady wanna cross the street instead of walk by me
 Or cops stopping me next to the subway station
 Claiming I fit the description of a crime investigation when they
 They see my name on a resume then it's decimated
 What's up my man what's the reason for the hesitation
 Explain this, why my accolades look less amazing?
 Don't want your sympathy just fees and reparations see
 When we say white privilege first they think excuses
 Cause a few of us made it so the rest of us are useless
 But some others have it hard to We can have all of the same things
 But it feels we have to work twice as hard to
 We ain't scared to work hard even tho we didn't start off
 With a million dollars that was in Donald Trumps cards
 Same song cause what doesn't kill us it makes us strong
 Felt the pain repeatedly we no longer afraid of harm
 We learned to be more crafty talk a little slicker
 Jump a little higher and think a little quicker
 Run a little faster sleep a little less
 Studied a bit more and learned better to manage stress
 And it's all a bit ironic like Alanis Morrisette
 Got us all looking up to western ideals for respect
 Singling out success like Morris Chestnut on a set
 Straight pimping all of our talent then collecting all the checks
 Privilege is a right a special edge or an advantage
 Fuck it we got better when the system left us abandoned
 Black Privilege cause the upper class had its turn
 White is what is given and black it's what's earned
 Haves and the have nots you won't give us our share
 So we take it updated and we coming up the stairs
 Black Privilege
 Underground rappers are broke (laughter)
 You ain't got no money, you ain't got no job
 Damn Charlamagne right off the gate
 You have to be disrespectful though
 You a very underrated lyricist
 People watching this interview right now like who the hell is this guy
 I'm glad you said that cause we all need an introduction
 I'm a tell yall a story about how it all lead up to this
 Wrote black Privilege for Steal This Mixtape too
 Tapped Mad Squablz for it the young homie came through
 Shot the video and dropped it Music Box copped it
 Dropped some jewels for those who operate with flawed logic
 Then the homie told me Charlamagne was dropping a book
 It's gonna give the concept legs that's a quality look
 I had some shirts made already I could drop em a few
 I waited in a front of the station 3 hours for duke
 Was cold as fuck ignored Envy as he walked up
 Angela came an hour later word she was dolled up
 His boys Wax was posting up as he stepped out his car
 "Peace Charlamagne I got something for you and ya squad"
 He paused "I meant a gift beloved I came in peace
 I got a song called black privilege and gave him a T"
 He said "Dope! I wrote a book that had the same title"
 "Congratulations! Spread the gospel like the saints in the Bible"
 He gave me dap and said "respect" then he dashed upstairs
 Literally two minutes later he was live on air
 I understand you a successful man so I kept it moving
 Ideas is worth nothing with no proper execution
 Next day seen sway the same way gave him a hoodie
 First reaction I'm a wear this today it's all goodie
 Then I posted the video sales went up
 Around the time Taxstone went to jail that was bugged
 But where's the black privilege when you be dissing on ya guest
 On ya hoodie underlined with a sentence on ya chest
 And see you good at what you do that's obvious fact
 People share more interviews that get the audience mad
 Fickle when you lose em hard to get ya audience back
 Bringing Farrakhan don't be that Pharaoh conning ya pack
 Ya Black Privilege is burned when corporations help you earn
 I see ya work in Carolina to give back in return
 Talking about gangsta rapper and their image in rap
 But you talking and shining light on mostly rappers that trap
 Or claim it I know ya struggles with Wendy and other stations
 The success and the scrutiny coming from publications
 I salute you love you as a brother even as stranger
 It always good to see black man who made it
 Wanna see you reaching higher don't resent those
 Who ya voice represents we still holding ya feet to the fire

 Black Privilege black black privilege
 You know the premise if you black then you primitive
 That's the main stream I don't play the same stream
 This ain't fast food I don't sell fake dreams
 I spit it different with the words yea
 I give my own definition to the words yea
 I put my vision in these words and disturb
 Then I Destroy the system with my word yea
 They call me Po never riding coat tails
 No crimes no coke sales no gunshots no jail
 No co-signs from a Nobel prize winner
 If you building then I side with cha yea
 Climb with cha break bread drink wine with cha
 It's not about the bank account kid my mind richer
 If you a snake spend no time with cha
 Never blind with cha never stand in line with cha
 Stand tall I can tell you got some pride witcha
 White privileges is what's given from society
 Cops Letting go after you failed ya sobriety
 Good jobs good schools you get the first dibs
 Ya whole profile on paper looking perfect
 Black Privileges what you did to make yourself better
 Gave yourself an edge in life being a go getter
 Never quitting when the odds go against you
 Working on ya talent to be sharper than a ginsu
 Slice the competition cause u better now you get fetta now
 It's on another level now
 Create my own Privilege I'm different
 Everything I say sound different
 Everything I wear look different
 I'm different spit to beat that I kill for a living
