Intro
At the bottom of our news tonight, there's been a new animal aimed at falling off the face of our Earth. Yes,
young black teenagers are reported to be the oldest, and the newest, creatures added to the Endangered
SpeciesList. As of now, no efforts have been made to preserve the blacks. When asked why, a top top law
official adds, 'Because they make good game hunting.'
Ice Cube
Peace. Haha don't make me laugh! All I hear is muthafucker's talkin' sucotash Livin' large, tellin' me to get
out the gang
I'm a niggga, gotta live by the trigger How the fuck do you figure
That I can say peace and the gunshots won't cease Every cop killin' goes ignored They just send another
nigga to the morgue My boys gone - they can't give a fuck about us They rather catch us with guns and
white powder If I was home, they'd probably be front of me Since I'm young, they consider me the enemy
They'll kill ten of me to get the job correct To serve, protect, and break a nigga's neck
Cuz I'm the one with a trunk of funk And 'Fuck tha Police' in the tape deck You should listen to me cuz
there's more to see
Call my neighborhood a ghetto cuz it houses minorities The other color don't know you can run but not
hide These are tales from the darkside...
You wanna free Africa, I stare at yuh Cuz we ain't got it too good in America I can't fuck with them overseas
My homeboy died over keys of cocaine It was plain and simple The 9mm went <pop> to the temple
<pop pop pop> was the sound I put the bitch down And ran to the schoolyard bathroomLooked in the trash
can, yo it had room
So I ducked my ass in it for a minute Covered with trash I had the layback Mad as fuck thinkin' about the
payback Tonight the crew had a little fun I went home and cut the barrel off my shotgun It's gettin
critical*I stole a five point o There they go - drive real slow
I yelled out 'Ice Cube sucka' Shot gun kicked- and murder muthafuckers I told you last album, when I got a
sawed off, bodies are hard offIts a shame, that niggas die young But to the light side it don't matter none
It'll be a drive by homicide But to me its just another tale from the darkside...
Chuck D
Standing in the middle of war The middle we flex When we die, they won't make check Ebony can't see to
the darkside The term they apply to us is a nigga Call it what you want, cuz I'm comin' from the coroner
Same applies with a PhD Who'z black - don't wanna role - sells his soul Watch his head go rollin'
Who the fuck are they foolin'? Nobody knows, but I suppose the color of my clothes Matches the color of
the one on my face as they wonder whats under my waist Standing while they're burning thats a fact
Got a fear of the bozack Run, run, run, their ass off, they can not hide Yet Cube, they can't fuck with the
darkside!
