Lyrics
Uh, bloody murder, murder, murder
Bloody murder, murder, murder, murder
Bloody murder, murder, murder
Bloody murder, murder, murder
Paper read murder
Black on black murder
Paper read murder
Black on black murder
This is to the memory of Danroy Henry
Too much enemy fire to catch a friendly
Strays from the same shade, still we on the same team
Giving you respect, I expect the same thing
All black everything, you know my fresh coat
My fight for you don't increase my stress though
Watch the throne, very happy to be you
Power to the people, when you see me, see you
And I'm from the murder capital where they murder for capital
Heard about at least three killings this afternoon
Looking at the news like, "Damn, I was just with him after school"
No shop class, but had the school gatter too
And a "I could die any day" type attitude
Plus his little brother got shot repping his avenue
It's time for us to stop and redefine black power
Forty-one souls murdered in fifty hours
The paper read murder
Black on black murder
The paper read murder
Black on black murder again
Murder again
It's a genocide
'Cause I can still hear his mama cries
Know the family traumatized
Shots left holes in his face, 'bout paranocized
The old pastor closed the cold casket
And said the church ain't got enough room for all the tombs
It's a war going on outside we ain't safe from
I feel the pain of my city wherever I go
Three hundred fourteen soldiers died in Iraq
Five hundred nine died in Chicago
I get robbed on the day Fred Hampton died
Uh, real niggas smoke the fly
And he said by twenty-one I'm supposed to die
So I'm out here celebrating my post-demise
If you put crabs in a barrel to ensure your survival
You gon' end up pulling down niggas that look just like you
What up, blood? What up, cuz?
It's all black, I love us
The paper read murder
Black on black murder
The paper read murder
Black on black murder again
Black on black murder again
Black on black murder again
It's a celebration of black excellence
Black tie, black Maybachs
Huh, yeah, uh
Black excellence, opulence, decadence
Tuxes next to the president
I'm pressing our dress in Drees
And other boutique stores in Paris
And sheepskin coats, I silence the glam
Do you know who I am, Clarice?
No cheap cologne whenever I shh, shh
Success never smelled so sweet
I stink of success, the new black elite
They say my black card bear the mark of the beast
I repeat, my religion is the beat
My verse is like church, my Jesus piece
Now please, domino, domino
Only spot a few blacks the higher I go
What's up, Will? Shout out to O
That ain't enough, we gon' need a million more
Uh, kick in the door, uh, Biggie flow
I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Yeah, it's all messed up when it's nowhere to go
So we won't take the time out 'til we reach the T-O-P
From parolees to whole Gs, soul keys, low keys
We like the promised land of the OGs
In the past, if you picture events like a black tie
What's the last thing you expect to see? Black guys
What's the life expectancy for black guys?
The system's working effectively, that's why
I be a real man, take care of your son
Every problem you had before this day is now done
New crib, watch a movie
'Cause there ain't nothing on the news but the blues
Hit the mall, pick up some Gucci
There ain't nothing new but your shoes
Sunday morning, praise the Lord
You the girl that Jesus have been saving me for
So let's savor this moment and take it to the floor
Black excellence, truly yours
