At the bottom of our news tonight, there's been a new animal aimed at falling off the face of our Earth. Yes,
|
young black teenagers are reported to be the oldest, and the newest, creatures added to the Endangered
|
SpeciesList. As of now, no efforts have been made to preserve the blacks. When asked why, a top top law
|
official adds, 'Because they make good game hunting.'

Peace. Haha don't make me laugh! All I hear is muthafucker's talkin' sucotash Livin' large, tellin' me to get
|
out the gang
|
I'm a niggga, gotta live by the trigger How the fuck do you figure
|
That I can say peace and the gunshots won't cease Every cop killin' goes ignored They just send another
|
nigga to the morgue My boys gone - they can't give a fuck about us They rather catch us with guns and
|
white powder If I was home, they'd probably be front of me Since I'm young, they consider me the enemy
|
They'll kill ten of me to get the job correct To serve, protect, and break a nigga's neck
|
Cuz I'm the one with a trunk of funk And 'Fuck tha Police' in the tape deck You should listen to me cuz
|
there's more to see
|
Call my neighborhood a ghetto cuz it houses minorities The other color don't know you can run but not
|
hide These are tales from the darkside...
|
|
You wanna free Africa, I stare at yuh Cuz we ain't got it too good in America I can't fuck with them overseas
|
My homeboy died over keys of cocaine It was plain and simple The 9mm went <pop> to the temple
|
<pop pop pop> was the sound I put the bitch down And ran to the schoolyard bathroomLooked in the trash
|
can, yo it had room
|
So I ducked my ass in it for a minute Covered with trash I had the layback Mad as fuck thinkin' about the
|
payback Tonight the crew had a little fun I went home and cut the barrel off my shotgun It's gettin
|
critical*I stole a five point o There they go - drive real slow
|
I yelled out 'Ice Cube sucka' Shot gun kicked- and murder muthafuckers I told you last album, when I got a
|
sawed off, bodies are hard offIts a shame, that niggas die young But to the light side it don't matter none
|
It'll be a drive by homicide But to me its just another tale from the darkside...

Standing in the middle of war The middle we flex When we die, they won't make check Ebony can't see to
|
the darkside The term they apply to us is a nigga Call it what you want, cuz I'm comin' from the coroner
|
Same applies with a PhD Who'z black - don't wanna role - sells his soul Watch his head go rollin'
|
Who the fuck are they foolin'? Nobody knows, but I suppose the color of my clothes Matches the color of
|
the one on my face as they wonder whats under my waist Standing while they're burning thats a fact
|
Got a fear of the bozack Run, run, run, their ass off, they can not hide Yet Cube, they can't fuck with the
|
darkside!
