From the Hood
I don't trap
I don't stay strapped
Nah I don't know where
the weed man at
Nah we can't dap
No you can't have a plate so
stop asking for that plus one
to the cookout, we straight
I won't rob you or hit a lick
comin through to yo crib
I don't bite
I don't snap
Don't insinuate that I have
an attitude or that I'm angry
when I open my mouth or disagree with you
No you can't touch my hair
or smooth brown skin
And damn sure don't call me
sis or use AAVE incorrectly
because we'll have problems
indefinitely
I'm not cappin', capin' or
gatekeepin'
But I'm damn sure not
comfortable with that shit you
bring to me and mine
So yes I'm from the hood
I will fuck up yo life if you
don't leave them dumbass generalizations
at the door because you had me fucked up at
"Black Bitch."
