Songtext zu 'Black People' von Dizzy Wright

[Verse 1:]
Dam, what has the world come to
I swear that we used to be slaves
And Martin Luther King had a dream
And I bet that he turnin' over in his grave
Look at how we behave, my black people
We don't even act equal, we act evil
Why, because it's easy and we see diamonds and then our favorite rappers go off and preach violence, for weak minded
Because we follow that shit
We went from leaders, to be followin' shit
So we bottle it in like we don't see it
When we know we believe it
So I'm hear to make you change for a reason, my black people

[Hook:]
Uhh, I'm just a kid from Las Vegas
And I ain't trynna come up like I'm racist
And lately I've been feelin like we act evil
So I had to do this for my black people
Time to make a change
[x3]
Sayin' it loud I'm black and I'm proud
And I'm about to make a change starting now

[Verse 2:]
I look at the generation under us
And I wonder how they gone do it
Our great grandparents fought for our rights
Now we got them and we sit up and abuse em
It's time to make a change, but I ain't God
Ya'll ain't gonna listen
Ya'll just gonna sit up and nod
And tell me that I'm hot and say I need a deal
If it come, then it come, but I'm talking about what's real
It takes one day
It takes one smile
Put your fist up, put the gun down
Nigga be a man
Don't do what you can for nothing
Cause if your gonna stand better stand for somethin'
Black people wanna know why they winning
Wanna know why we looked at so different
Cause we allow these little black children to raised by a fucking television
Are you kidding me dog
You teaching kids how to be fresh, but you forget to teach them how to have some respect
So they walk around without it
Never what's up
We need to teach these kids to be better than us
But we don't, so why bother
If we won't, than why offer
Life's crazy but it gets a little harder
We like being flashy
BBut we love being fathers my black people

[Hook]

Uhh, I'm just a kid from Las Vegas
And I ain't trynna come up like I'm racist
And lately I've been feelin like we act evil
So I had to do this for my black people
Time to make a change
[x3]
Sayin' it loud I'm black and I'm proud
And I'm about to make a change starting now
And we go'n do it like this
[x3]
Put your fist in the air if you feel this

This is a public announcement
[3x]
Put your fist in the air if you feel this

Uhh, I'm just a kid from Las Vegas
And I ain't trynna come up like I'm racist
And lately I've been feelin like we act evil
So I had to do this for my black people
And I'm about to start making a change starting now

[Verse 2]

I do this for the kids
I do this for the community, musically I'm trying to bring back that unity

[Outro:]
You are not Ty
Yeah, for my black people and I'm a make a change startin' now
