See I was resting at the park minding my own
|
business as I kick up the treble tone
|
on my radio tape player box, right
|
just loud enough so folks could hear it's hype, see ?
|
Outta nowhere comes the woman I'm dating
|
investigation maybe she was demonstrating
|
But nevertheless I was pleased
|
My day was going great and my soul was at ease
|
until a group of brothers started bugging out
|
drinking the 40 oz, going the nigga route
|
Disrespecting my black queen
|
holding their crotches and being obscene
|
At first I ignored them cause see I know their type
|
They got drunk and got guns and they wanna fight
|
and they see a young couple having a time that's good
|
and their egos wanna test a brother's manhood
|
So they came to test Speech cause of my hair-do
|
and the loud bright colors that I wear [Boo !]
|
I was a target cause I'm a fashion misfit
|
and the outfit that I'm wearing brothers dissing it
|
Well I stay calm and pray the niggaz leave me be
|
but they're squeezing parts of my date's anatomy
|
Why, Lord, do brothers have to drill me ?
|
Cause if I start to hit this man they'll have to kill me
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
I am everyday people (2x)
|
|
I told the niggaz please let us pass, friend
|
I said please cause I don't like killing Africans
|
but he wouldn't stop and I ain't Ice Cube
|
but I had to take the brother out for being rude
|
and like I said before I was mad by then
|
It took three or four cops to pull me off of him
|
But that's the story y'all of a black man
|
acting like a nigga and get stomped by an African
|
|
[CHORUS]
