SCAPEGOAT Lyrics by Z (USA)

2020

[INTRO]
Five, Five, Five, Five, Five, Five time more likely to get jailed for doing the same crime
Cops taking swings at niggas like baseballs/
How am I making it about race when you invented the fucking race card?/
You think racism is gone? Huh, like a thing of the past?Outdated like Floppy discs?
In 2020, guess what being 6’3 and Black means everyday I walk out of my house…
My life’s at risk-- get up against the wall nigga! Stop and frisk/
Usually I’m not usually non violent, but this shit..make me wanna pass a fist…
To the face of a racist mother fucker
You hear me mufucker?
This a stat sheet, check the data
I’m here to remind you racist fucks, that Black lives Mat——
[Verse 1]
Pulling on my wool, cause there’s success behind my tailcoat
Black sheep take blame, I always end up as the the scapegoat
I charge it to the game, I keep a lane so cut throats
And everyday I’m raining heavy—gonna need a raincoat
Took 40 days and 40 nights before I saw my rainbow
I’m swimming up streams got big holes inside my sailboat
Big as whales, that ship has sailed, and all that’s left is wrecked boats/
Search for light, but took an L, so welcome to my death note/
A footnote on your thesis, whom’s fucking with Z?
I’m Celibite to all these rappers, you not fucking with me
Look—They tried lock me out…but my success was the key/
I’m Denzel—this man is on fire like 1000 degrees/
I’m a black panther under pressure, means that I never freeze
And I’m a breath of fresh air just like I’m spraying febreeze—
Praise to Allah, I make the devil weak in the knees…I never had to join a gang to get respect in the streets/
[Verse 2]
Black Sheep
Growing up, I was a problem kid, Now my focus is doing better than my father did
And I’m not saying it cause he was the worst, or placing blame,I’m just saying, growing up, How we saw some things just wunt same/
He’d say “always use your muscle, II would always use my brai/
Get upset, I’d start to cry, get a whooping’, wonder know why
All these memories in my brain, make em vanish; David Blane/
Staring out my windowpane, hoping God will take the pain/
Black sheep always take the blame
[Hook]
Use me as the scapegoat, Fuck you, not a misquote
I was tryna live, then they threw me off the lifeboat/
Throw me off my balance, got me walking on a tightrope/
Black sheep take the blame, sse me as the scapegoat
Fuck you, not a misquote, I was tryna live, then they threw me off the lifeboat
Throw me off my balance, got me walking on a tight rope--fuck/
