Black

What is being black?
Is it sagging your pants below your ass?
Is it calling women bitches as they pass?
What is being black?
Is it calling each other nigga while smoking
blunts and drinking 40's?
What is being black?
Is it slanging dope while gang banging throughout
the hood?
What is being black?
Is it living life in and out of prison while you
watch your son follow in your footsteps?
What is being black?
Is it rejecting black women while glorifying white
women?
What is being black?
Is it living in the projects while collecting a
welfare check?
What is being black?
