Thoughts of a Niggah
Sleepy the Woke Poet on this sheet niggah
I stand up for what’s mines
I can not take a seat niggah
and its a cold world
so I pack heat niggah
blow it one time
and all my monsters retreat niggah
carry protection
cuz nobody else protecting me
don’t step in the church
cuz they hypocrites and rejecting me
These crooked police wont even say why they arresting me
You say reasonable suspicion
but tell me why are you suspecting me?
government some shit
don’t even care bout what’s affecting me
Donald Trump for president?
you better off electing me
Sleepy for President!
and ima represent
all my hood residents
at least then we’ll no where all the countries money getting spent
what ima spend it on?
trees to be planted
that got that loud scent
ima put DC up on the map niggah
turn the whole white house to a trap niggah
put my face up on the dollar
so you see me when you shoot craps niggah
and ill be the first black president that raps niggah
the police gone be all my niggas holding straps
at least then
they won’t be shooting at the handicapped
at least then
they won’t be shooting at kids wearing hoodies
at least then
we’ll have black people in the juries
at least then
everybody would be treated equal
cuz as of now
we still having Rodney King sequels
wont me to say that all lives matter
but all lives not be taken when police bullets scatter
y’all not the ones getting wrongfully beat on camera
gotta scream I Cant Breathe
hoping it’ll get heard by the dispatcher
y’all get arrested its al glitz and glamour
we get arrested we gotta take mugshots with our jaws fractured
slamming us on concrete putting the knees in our chest
when did you’re hurting me start sounding like resisting arrest?
when did the color of my skin start making me a suspect?
and when did me lifting my hands up start to make me a threat?
but what would I know
I’m just a niggah from the hood
and since my jacket got a hood
then I’m up to no good
but what about when they wore white hoods
lynching us in the woods
is it the niggah in me or that shit not understood?
and they still got the right to wear that shit
but we not gone ever have the right to wear our skin I swear that shit
God bless America
God bless America
land that I hate
stand beside me and guide me
into Section 8
ask me how do I describe my day
I say hell
the weeping and the fire and the smoke from bullet shells
but at least in hell you know that you deserve it
been through so much hell on this earth I know that Heaven’s worth it
the way this nation set up ill be getting there kinda early
but I’m cool with that I heard them gates are white & pearly
but once I get there first thing ill ask is God bless america
God bless America
it’s a horrific area!
