Lyrics
So I go back to my Black roots and spend my Black loot
Wear my Black suit and kick my Black boots
This is my neighborhood
So I help my neighbor as all Blacks should
I come back to give back to the flats of the Blacks
But I feel smacked when I look at the lack of support
Never short of a sport when the court let 'em walk
But they ran so I talk street slang from the streets where I came
I remain but the same, ain't a damn thing changed
In the game just a name as I look through the window pane
I see shame, what a shame
Now I gotta walk back, walk back down the sidewalk
Back down the back streets
Backyard cause I'm back, way back, never back off
Back off me
Back in the back room, back seat
I repeat, back in the back room, back seat
I repeat, back in the back room, back seat
How'd you meet back then, back when, back again
Black men came back, turned your back on the Blacks
Get backslapped
All you Black athletes going to white schools
All you Black athletes going to white schools
All you Black athletes going to white schools
Now all the white schools get all the revenues
Who's confused? Refuse to choose
Now you're abused every day, you lose
Would not acknowledge, help the Black college
Help the Black college, help the Black college
I see brothers and sisters just as they missed the train
I feel pain, cause I see down my family tree
Not enough Black universities
So the money that we earn, we might as well burn
If we give it to those who really are concerned
With higher education for the Black population
Feeling constipation from the shit that we're taking
Like George Washington or Abraham Lincoln
Now they got you thinking there's some kind of link
In between them and us that allows us to bust
To all of the schools so we can be fools
Follow their rules and learn from the news
But that's bad news, that's bad news
Now I gotta walk back, walk back down the sidewalk
Back down the back streets
Backyard cause I'm back, way back, never back off
Back off me
Back in the back room, back seat
I repeat, back in the back room, back seat
I repeat, back in the back room, back seat
How'd you meet back then, back when, back again
Black men came back, turned your back on the Blacks
Get backslapped
Six million dollar man
Six million dollar Black man
Watch the Black man, see how he runs
Watch the Black man having much fun
Watch the Black man, where is he from?
Watch the Black man, see how he runs
From the Blacks still back in the back
He's still Black but Black don't attract
Fat contracts from the pack of the tracks
So you cross but your cross gets cracked
Burnt to a crisp cause you didn't resist
And now you wish you didn't claim mixed
Trick, trick them, you didn't trick me
Cause you didn't use your money for Black families
You didn't speak out when your voice was the loudest
And didn't build homes when your ghetto was the crowded
Be like you, won't you be like me?
And give something back to the Black community
Now I gotta walk back, walk back down the sidewalk
Back down the back streets
Backyard cause I'm back, way back, never back off
Back off me
Back in the back room, back seat
I repeat, back in the back room, back seat
I repeat, back in the back room, back seat
How'd you meet back then, back when, back again
Black men came back, turned your back on the Blacks
Get backslapped
