Текст Christon Gray – Blackmail (Black Male)
Текст:
Alright thank you Lord
Small town 1993, two kids different sides of the street
Jus’ laughing and playing games, they didn’t know one day they’d share a name
They grew up headed off to school, couple years came back to jump the broom
But don’t you know that where he came from they don’t have those things
It took him long enough to save up just to buy that ring
She hears him singing no one knows the trouble that I’ve seen. She grew up in a happy home he had to make it own his own, as a black male
It’s a Black Male (blackmail), is it something that we do to ourselves
Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail)
She seemed a little nervous on the way home, got a lost no signal on the phone
When he realizes where they are, he’s thinking maybe she should drive the car
Lights start flashing red and blue, she’s afraid he’s thinking nothing new
She says, «sir what did we do? «, He says, «it has nothing to do with you»
They put a call out for a suspect that looks just like him
Around his height around his weight and he’s got darker skin. «Sir I need you out the car I’m calling backup in»
She looks up to see her eyes another tear but I ain’t surprised cause I’m a black male baby
Is it something that we do to ourselves
Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail)
Its hard I know and you deal with it everyday
Trust God be strong He’ll never lead you astray
I’m here for you no matter what comes our way
To be in love, this is the price that we pay
Monday night in the living room caught chills when they turned on the news
Missouri full of misery had to kiss his wife on the cheek
They’ll get over it after awhile is more concerned about what to tell his child
Don’t give into the worldview cause either way you didn’t choose to be a black male
Is it something that we do to ourselves
Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail), Black Male (blackmail)
