[Verse 1]
I can walk outside now and get shot down
If you ever wondered why I'm hostile
You can see the chief sending orders from the top down
All the civil leaders looking docile
Lord forgive him, maybe it's the dark forces in him. Or the
Medicaid cost just hit him
Or the evidence that all our history is getting washed out
But everybody taking our style
[Hook x4]
Who the new black now?
[Verse 2]
The most feared and most imitated
Grand daughter love it, grand daddy hate it
Brands pay top dollar to legally take it
They strip it naked
We recreate it
b**h this is basic. This came from love
We made a civilization from mud
We made a culture to break out the hood
All n***as gave us was pistols and d**. What!
[Hook x4]
Who the new black now?
[Outro: Kemba]
College professor gets locked up
Student gets locked up
What is the difference
What am I missing
If we all get looked at as monsters
The Guilty and innocent
End up in prison
Why are we divided
Why are we divided
I can't see the logic
Why are we divided
