For Colored Boys

(album: FOTO - 2019)


You was born in a hospital with incompetent doctors who didn't bother to press you against your mother's chest
But that's okay 'cause Jehovah say that your mother blessed
And we are here to guide you through life
And teach you what is best
Do not have your kids in a hospital, they don't give a fuck
Especially 'bout black folk
Learn how to deliver your own kids
And have 'em at home, kid
And leave that placenta attached as long as you want, kid
It's different for black boys
Harder for black girls
Start your own business venture
Thrive in a black world
Where you and your homies don't gotta worry 'bout getting fired and facing discrimination
We are creators; we don't go begging for placement where we are not wanted
And I'mma keep it a hunnid younging we used to be hunted
They had us sitting in zoos
So what you see in the news
Is really nothing that's new
They really targeting you
You hear me talking to you?
But even if your bread straight
Big house, nice car, gotta keep your head straight
People that be gossiping constantly only dead weight
Wiser assessments of situations will carry you to your best days
Put away a portion of your profit when you get paid
And do not be afraid of change
It could be a segue
To a better something
But have patience
And always make time for family and celebration
And every good thing in life requires dedication
Like career, wife, kids, and it's spiritual
The point of our existence isn't physical
Make sure there is love in your living room
And make sure that you there for the ones that you give it to
And grudges'll do you no good
Life is too short to be stressing
Love your friends for who they are
If they there when you're down
Then you should keep 'em around
And then return that favor tenfold
Everything you hiding will be exposed
So you should probably keep it a thousand younging and let go
Embrace humiliation it's humbling
And take every situation for what it is
Love is free so don't be possessive
Love is a combination of letting go and holding tight
You'll learn when to do which
And get more love than you know what to do with
And you gon' make mistakes 'cause homie you only human
But that ain't no excuse to be foolish
Treat your woman with respect
That means keeping it real
Keeping her in your mind
If you about to be stupid
Just think about how she feel
Be honest with yourself
Put your ego on the shelf
And I promise you it helps
You ain't gotta be what they expect
Get to scrubbing when you make a mess
And treat your daughters same as your sons
We growing out of double standards
Speaking of standards
Let's move away from the European
Tell her she's beautiful
Wide nose, coarse hair, brown eyes, brown skin
Self-love for the win
Why conform to a society that hates you
And spent all they energy tryna break you?
Now they thinking, "y'all niggas still here?"
Yeah, and y'all still scared
Black boys still strong
Slavery's still here
Black boys still marked
The prisons is still packed
With innocent black boys
The black boys still thrive
The black girls still God
Yeah

fait
