Young Black Male Lyrics by Jay Vilpin

Patience

2017

JAY VILPIN (VERSE 1)
Which of our lives matter to more my nigga yours or mine
Seems to be yours but if I die I’ll be immortalized
Another MLK or Trayvon
I went to high school with him never met him but I pray on
Yelling nigga at me to get in my skin like Avon
Call me colored but you turn more colors than a crayon
I’ve been thinking about it
I live in a place that my family only dreams about it
But they all ignorant to the truth because they can’t read about it
There’s more to learn and more to find
They work two nine to fives and can’t afford to lose the time
And then they take their hands and place them firm on our behind to get an education
What they don’t know is that the system is the spawn of Satan
You live your life with no regrets and no one gets upset
But if I do the same then they gon think I rep a set
I get no love if I ain’t famous
I bet youd ride my dick if you’d had thought my name was Jameis
HOOK (2x)
It’s a blessing and a curse to be a black man I’ve seen the best in all the worst in my life span
Don’t have a thing to lose but only more to gain
And if you kill me now at least the world will know my name
SHON ELEAZOR (VERSE 2)
OK I’ma take the time so I could paint this perfect picture for you
He was 22 inside the coupe and now they lurking for him
Seems like they just want to tie the noose around his neck
He just want a check
So he can go and feed his daughter
But ain’t no food on the table tonight
Cops pulled him over in the car and then they shot him he a single father
Apparently, he was up to suspicious activity like are you kidding me?
That cop went home unbothered
Because ain’t no sentence for a crime if a white man do it
And ain’t no letting up on time if the black man do it
So tell me
How are we supposed to trust the system
In a country built off racism
It’s been a scam all along damn
That Niggas daughter being raised in another man’s home that ain’t okay
So please don’t take this shit for a joke
Cuz we out here getting smoked
And then they give us false hope like it was fair play
HOOK (2x)
