Black THougHts Lyrics

[Intro: Trayvon Ray Cail & ScHoolboy Q]
Our circumstance to where we had parents in our lives that was showing us everything
Like didn't nobody walk us and— by our hand and show us like you do this and don't do that
It wasn't like that coming up in our motherfuckin' community where we grew up at

We grew up off of, what? Figueroa, nigga, like a, a, a, a worldwide blade
A real strip (Yeah)
A real, real ho store
I mean, you know like
You got a mama tellin' you somethin' and a daddy
A daddy tellin' you somethin'
And at the same time, you got your daddy, he, he, he, he around the corner
Gettin' high off the heroin
Your mama on the county, you know what I mean? Like
Supportin', wanna take care of ten kids
I mean, you know, man, it's like
Smokin' the gas on the regular, man, you know what I mean?
Word
Sippin' on Henn', nothin' but regular, you know what I mean?
Word, uh


[Verse 1: ScHoolboy Q]
Pissy sofas, sharin' food with roaches, uh
On gangster Crip, my papa was a bitch
Left me where hope just don't exist

And every neighbor got a fence
With bars on windows,
my moms slavin' for the rent
Throwin' dices, GT Dyno groovin'
Where you hang, we shootin'
You slip, you stiffen
Creative Crippin', uh

Nigga, uh
Bitches stop in traffic
This that type of shit that make the MAC a classic
Reason I'm pussy magnet
She learned to carry package
I been the best at rappin', uh
I'm hot as Vegas
Your favorite rapper broke, he don't get this paper
But claim he got a kilo, been born in '93, though
He tryna fool the people

About

Genius Annotation

ScHoolboy Q addresses the current state of the hood and the overall black community, addressing stereotypes on the culture.

Q delivers most of these lines in this track with brief pauses, showing how scattered these thoughts can be before you can connect them. Even in the line “I wrote these rhymes days apart” can be an example of how long it can take to connect your thoughts.

With rising tensions between cops and black people, it’s going to take more than just people talking about it to make a change. Q acknowledges that his role as an entertainer can be used to influence a change in society. Gang violence is an issue with which Q has been involved deeply, so it is evident to him that gangs need to focus on the real problem at hand.
