Black Man in A White World (Ghetto Gettysburg Address)

Black Man in a White World (Ghetto Gettysburg Address) - Michael Kiwanuka (邁克爾·基瓦努卡)/Nas/Mr. Books

I'm a black man in a white world

I'm a black man in a white world

I'm a black man in a white world

I'm a black man in a white world

I can see the saddest life a savage life

Snakes and thieves every man has his price

It's hell below who will or won't sell his soul

What's my goal go to jail or fail hell no

In the streets there's a few ways out cause face it

Time is short think fast while I resort

To a life of crime and fast cash

Nah I'm destined to be king stayin' on the right path

I'm in love I feel sad

I found peace and I'm not there

All my nights and all my days

I've been tryna runaway

I'm left in a world oppressed

How do I express

My very own ghetto gettysburg address

My platform is a rap song

Black man is politically attacked on the norm

My life's survivin' at night I'm ridin'

Smokin' hopin' dreamin' speedin'

White lightenin' steamin' streets triflin'

I keep writin' it gets deeper

My brother's keeper are divided

I decided to keep risin' yeah

I'm in love I feel sad

I found peace and I'm not there

All my nights and all my days

I've been tryna runaway

New York

New York the irrefutable

New York

New York the irrefutable

The city if you make it out here it's beautiful

And the streets can deceive you when the times are hard

And the pressure leaves your mind body and soul so scarred

I'm in love I feel sad

I found peace and I'm not there

All my nights and all my days

I've been tryna runaway

Let me out here

We need to wisen up

We risin' up

These times is rough

I'm a black man in a white world

For real

I'm a black man in a white world

For real

I'm a black man in a white world

Yeah

I'm a black man in a white world

Yeah

I'm a black man in a white world

Yeah

I'm a black man in a white world

Let's rise

I'm a black man in a white world

Let's rise

I'm a black man in a white world

Come on let's rise

I'm a black man in a white world

Come on y'all

I'm a black man in a white world
