White America

歌詞

America (Background: The white zone is for loading and unloading of passengers only. No parking.) We love you How many people are proud to be citizens Of this beautiful country of ours? The stripes and the stars for the rights that men have died for to protect. The women and men who have broke their necks for the freedom of speech the United States Government has sworn to uphold Or so we are told (Yo, I want everyone to listen to the words of this song) I never would have dreamed in a million years I'd see so many motherfuckin' people who feel like me Who share the same views and the same exact beliefs Its like a fuckin' army marchin' in back of me So many lives I touch, so much anger aimed at no particular direction just sprays and sprays Straight through your radio waves it plays and plays Till it stays stuck in your head for days and days Who woulda thought standin' in this mirror bleachin' my hair wit some Peroxide reachin' for a T shirt to wear That I would catapult to the forefront of rap like this? How could I predict my words would have an impact like this I must've struck a chord wit somebody up in the office 'Cause Congress keeps tellin' me I ain't causin' nothin' but problems And now they sayin' I'm in trouble wit the government I'm lovin' it I shoveled shit all my life and now I'm dumping it on White America I could be one of your kids White America little Eric looks just like this White America Erica loves my shit I go to TRL Look how many hugs I get White America I could be one of your kids White America little Eric looks just like this White America Erica loves my shit I go to TRL Look how many hugs I get Look at these eyes baby blue baby just like yourself If they were brown Shady lose Shady sits on the shelf But Shady's cute Shady knew Shady's dimples would help Make ladies swoon baby (Ooh baby) Look at myself Lets do the math, if I was black I woulda sold half I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that But I can rap so fuck school I'm too cool to go back Gimme the mic show me where the fuckin' studio's at When I was underground no one gave a fuck I was white No labels wanted to sign me almost gave up, I was like Fuck it until I met Dre the only one who looked past Gave me a chance and I lit a fire up under his ass Helped him get back to the top every fan black that I got Was probably his in exchange for every white fan that he's got Like damn we just swapped sittin back lookin' at shit, wow I'm like My skin, is it startin' to work to my benefit now? It's White America I could be one of your kids White America little Eric looks just like this White America Erica loves my shit I go to TRL Look how many hugs I get White America I could be one of your kids White America little Eric looks just like this White America Erica loves my shit I go to TRL Look how many hugs I get See the problem is I speak to suburban kids Who otherwise woulda never knew these words exist whose moms probably woulda never gave 2 squirts of piss Till I created so much mutherfuckin' turbulence Straight out the tube right into your livin' rooms I came And kids flipped when they knew I was produced by Dre That's all it took and they were instantly hooked right in And they connected wit me too because I looked like them That's why they put my lyrics up under this microscope Searchin' with a fine tooth comb its like this rope waitin' to choke tightenin' around my throat Watchin' me while I write this like I don't like yes no All I hear is: Lyrics lyrics constant controversy sponsors workin' round the clock to try to stop my concerts early surely hip hop was never a problem in Harlem only in Boston After it bothered the fathers of daughters startin' to blossom so now I'm catchin' the flack from these activists when they raggin ' Actin' like I'm the first rapper to smack a bitch and say faggot Shit, just look at me like I'm your closest pal, the poster child The mutherfuckin' spokesman now for White America I could be one of your kids White America little Eric looks just like this White America Erica loves my shit I go to TRL Look how many hugs I get White America I could be one of your kids White America little Eric looks just like this White America Erica loves my shit I go to TRL Look how many hugs I get So to the parents of America I am the derringer aimed at little Erica To attack her character of The ring leader of the circus of worthless pawns Sent to lead the march right up to the steps of Congress And piss on the lawns of the White House and to burn the casket and replace it with a parental advisory sticker To spit liquor in the faces of this democracy of hypocrisy Fuck you Ms Cheney! Fuck you Tipper Gore! Fuck you with the freedom of speech this divided state Of embarrassment will allow me to have, Fuck You! Ha Ha Ha I'm just playin' America, you know I love you
