BLACK Lyrics by Eddy Cube

2017

[Verse 1]
I'm living in a dream where the black man ruling/
Will we ever tho? I’ll never know /
Is the white man's show, don't get me wrong/
Leaders ain’t helping will we ever grow/
Where the money go, will we ever know/
They say we growing, would it ever show/
A lot of borrowing, a lot of cash flow/
Buh we ain't see shit, where the cash go?/
This shit like a movie and we the cast yo/
Where the script at, let the cast know/
Swimming through money using backstroke/
While the nation crippling no backbone/
Black on black, black never crack/
Black and proud buh ma people crazy/
Fuck y'all leaders, y'all niggas lazy/
Doing nothing relevant, waiting for the payday/
Black mentality the real slave master/
The way we're thinking, we need change faster/
I'm coming for the heads of the leaders now/
And put them all on a note, call it cedi now/
Yh I'm the truth so they hate me now/
I ain't stopping, they’ll try to lay me down/
In the hearse or the dirt imma say it loud/
In the flesh or the spirit hope they hear the sound/

[Hook]
Yh, let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell ’em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now
Ha!
Let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell ’em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now

[Verse 2]
Snitching get 'em stitches, they some rats/
Name me 3 niggas that can really rap/
I'm ahead of these rappers with a gap/
"CUBE CHILL" nah I ain’t feeling they guts/
They be feeding rap fans with some crap/
U aiming for the best hope you strapped/
Trynna go against me it a trap/
If I run up on you niggas is a wrap/

[Hook]
Let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell 'em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now
Ha!
Let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell 'em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now

[Bridge]
I'm a King with a crown creating BARS for the power you gone say it say it loud I'm the best/
Imma win with BARS all they shit below par nothing more play ma sound fuck the rest /
From nothing that I came Hip Hop tattered huge on ma chest yh I'm proud nothing less bring a vest bars piercing through the chest damn can I take a breath 24/7 can't get a rest/

[Hook]
Ha! let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell 'em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now
Ha!
Let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell 'em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now

[Verse 3]
I'm a one man team, got the bars got the punches, metaphors, wordplay all in one/
Its a one man dream, to be the greatest, only rapper killing beats, all these rappers getting killed/
Looking like a crime scene, on errthing I get on, is a god glow/
Zeus, Poseidon & Hades all in one yh
Call it a god show, hear the god flow/
Yh black man, on a black soil/
All this shit going on yh my blood boil/
Mama had to raise me yh her hands soiled/
African Queen, yh she really royal/
She raised a King, she the Queen Mother/
She raised me right, she the Queen of Mothers/
She did a great a job for single mother/
So I told her Imma make it almost there mother/

[Hook]
Yh, let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell 'em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now
Ha!
Let them say it now
Let them say it now
Let them say it now, yh
Let them say it now
Tell 'em I'm the GOAT and let them say it now

[Bridge]
I'm a King with a crown creating BARS for the power you gone say it say it loud I'm the best/
I'm a King with a crown/
Say it loud I'm the best/
Imma win with the BARS all they shit below par nothing more play ma sound fuck the rest /
Imma win with the BARS/
Play ma sound fuck the rest
From nothing that I came Hip Hop tattered huge on ma chest yh I'm proud nothing less bring a vest bars piercing through the chest damn can I take a breath 24/7 can't get a rest/
Can't get a rest/
