(feat. Bilal)    [Hook]  Can't come around  They gon' wanna bring you down  No one knows just what's inside  Doing dope and doing time  Why they messing with your mind  Black maybe...    [Common]  I heard a white man's yes  Is a black maybe  I was delivered in this world  As a crack baby  Hard for me to pay attention  And I act crazy  Gotta get over from the tip  I watch the fat lady sing a song  On how we guerillas in warfare  And I'm the kingest kong  They say we dreamin wrong  Them same strips that them older cats lingered on  Now the walgreens is gone  Hope is killed fiends are born  We leanin on a wall that ain't that ain't stable  Its hard to turn on the hood that made you  To leave We afraid to the same streets that raised you  Can aid you. What other black births came suit  the rage up in harlem and the southside  Brothers is starving with there mouth wide open  Floating across state got the workout plans so they can move weight  The fate of the black man, woman, and child maybe    [Hook - 2X]    [Common]  He had game since he used to hoop at chattum  Neither the ghetto nor defenders could trap him  The stones had his back and they'd pat him  He was living a life they couldn't fathom  Colleges getting at him with all type of scholarships  Even if he went they knew he'd leave college quick  For the pros the one from the hood that was chose  The black rose that grew in the jungle  But humble stud still had rumble in his blood  Women all around giving him trouble love  You know the love when you up they down  Cause you wrap a ball they round  Your win is their crown  Dudes in the circle he known for years  Shared beers and cheers but chose different careers  when paper and fame came they ain't know how to react  Them same studs shot him in the back  Now that's black...maybe    [Hook - 2X]    [Common - talking]  When we talk about black maybe  We talk about situations  Of people of color and because you are that color  You endure obstacles and opposition  And not all the time from...from other nationalities  Sometimes it come from your own kind  Or maybe even your own mind  You get judged..you get laughed at..you get looked at wrong  You get sighted for not being strong  The struggle of just being you  The struggle of just being us..black maybe    black maybe...    [Hook]
