Master P - Black And White lyrics

Your rating:

P: Son  didn't I tell you I don't want you fighting?
 Kid: But he called me a nigger.

 [Master P]
 I'm just a black man trapped in this white world (x5)
 And this goes to every woman  man  boy  and girl

 Its a shame when you can't send your kids  to decent schools
 We live in the world for the laws and no rules
 Gang bangers  crease sides  and chalk lines
 Correctional facilities full of juveniles doin' petty crimes
 In this ghetto, got me crazy
 Sometimes I wish, mama wouldn'ta made me
 But its a shame when you gotta raise a baby
 And the color of my skin might taint me

 I'm just a black man trapped in this white world (x3)
 And this goes to every woman, man, boy, and girl

 And all the money can't change the color of your skin
 Why so many blacks and Mexicans in the pen?
 It is cause we VIOLENT?
 But why Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves and started smilin'?
 So many people have dreams
 But why society eliminated Martin Luther King?
 And they tell us to be proud to be black
 And at the same time Uncle John shoot us in the back
 Independence, its a free country
 No jobs, most blacks turn to street money
 A bunch of ghetto full of drugs and alcohol
 Where found history books about white laws
 And tell me Hilfiger discriminate
 And sell us clothes
 But we can't blame him cause
 We don't support the black stores
 And only God can judge
 ??? and what's
 White or black and red and blue equals gang banging

 I'm just a black man trapped in this white world (x3)
 And this goes to every woman, man, boy, and girl

 (I'm just a black man
 Trapped in this white world)
 I'm colorblind, so Lord won't you feel my pain
 (Hold on, hold on
 Trapped in this white world)
 I'm colorblind, so Lord won't you feel my pain

 [Silkk]
 P pray for your little brother
 [Master P]
 Silkk, keep your head up
 [Silkk]
 I'm tryin' but sometime I get fed up (Damn)
 What about all of the people that died in the past?
 Peers I can't get back with too many found guilty
 And I know they didn't do it
 But still they can't get back
 I see the copper be tryin' to nail me
 Police constantly trailin' me
 Cause I'm young, rich, and black
 I'm always under survelience
 Dash me out the car
 And wanna ask me who the car fuck
 Thay allowed to carry guns
 Can't never be convicted
 Who that law fuck?
 I'm guilty till proven innocent
 Still we all equals, how do you figure?
 Cop told me
 "you weren't speeding but I'm gonna give you a ticket cause you a
 nigger"
 I seen the hardest of my homies
 Break down in tears
 A white judge looked them in the eyes
 And gave them 35 years
 Now its a everyday struggle
 I hustle just to live
 To raise your kids
 When they got them teachin' them
 Their parents better than them
 They got me thinkin'
 The color of my skin
 Is a sin
 I'm a black man in a white man's world
 Where its set up for me not to win
 Lookit, ain't that about a bitch
 They look at us like we ain't shit
 But lookit, I ain't racist, but face it, it exists
 I'm a black man (Unghhhhh)

 [Master P]
 I'm just a black man trapped in this white world (x3)
 And this goes to every woman, man, boy, and girl

 Outro:
 Check this out (check this out)
 Underneath (underneath)
 Ain't no black or white (there ain't no black or white)
 We all equal (we all equal)
 We all equal (we all equal)
 We all (remember that)
 Got the same opportunity
 Whether we wanna be judges, doctors, or lawyers
 Ain't a black or white thing
 Pick the best man for the job
 And there shouldn't be no hatin'
 Where you live, if you can afford to buy a house
 Should be able to live wherever you want
 The same hospitality they give to athletes
 And movie stars
 Should give that same hospitality and companionship
 To your neighbors
 You heard me?
 Y'all know it ain't a black and white thing with me
 I just make music
 For the reality
 Only the real could feel this, huh
 Only the real could feel this
