Equality

[Verse 1: Joe Blow]
They don't care bout black problems or they choose to ignore 'em
My last trip to overseas, I was detained and deported
Hard to have a black business, blacks don't even support it
See a cop beating a black, don't just stand and record it
Shit it's hard to make it out when your family in poverty
Neighbour got the same struggle but you feel like robbing him
President can see our pain, it don't even bother him
You say you love your hood, well nigga buy up some property
Me and Aaliyah talking bout integrity and honesty
Playing Derrick Grace board game, not Monopoly
Xaniya so smart, I'm starting to think she a prodigy
Had a prophecy that she wouldn't have to fight for equality
This gotta be the realest shit I ever done wrote
Trump's sending out cheques, tryna pay for your vote
We done came a long way and got a long way to go
But when I go, I want my daughters to know their daddy's the GOAT

[Chorus: Mistah F.A.B.]
I say it's time to come together and build with each other
Cause we too busy in these streets tryna kill one another
She ran away from home man, she wasn't feeling her mother
Could never ever say you solid if you steal from your brother
Got no respect for a man cause daddy wasn't around
And watched your mama boyfriend beat her to the ground
Start getting high at a early age to take away the pain
You can leave me with the money, take away the fame

[Verse 2: Joe Blow]
Rest in peace Breonna Taylor and the hundreds of victims
Don't wish jail on nobody except the cops that killed them
Somebody shoulda helped George Floyd and not just filmed him
We gon' really see some riots if them cops not guilty
This was Kaepernick's stance from the jump, I knew it
I heard screaming "Uhuru", I just want my freedom
Say a virus going around and I wanna believe it
I been cautious but the government is deceiving
I'ma always be the same, you can love it or leave it
I still be having flashbacks when Ronnie Keane got beat
They know it's blacks' real history and won't even teach it
Know we always been kings, tryna keep it a secret
Programming us to go to church and listen to preachers
Who just taking all the money and got us waiting on Jesus
I been strapping up heavy, I been waiting on treason
Same day we come together, same day we achieving

[Chorus: Mistah F.A.B.]
I say it's time to come together and build with each other
Cause we too busy in these streets tryna kill one another
She ran away from home man, she wasn't feeling her mother
Could never ever say you solid if you steal from your brother
Got no respect for a man cause daddy wasn't around
And watched your mama boyfriend beat her to the ground
Start getting high at a early age to take away the pain
You can leave me with the money, take away the fame

[Verse 3: Mistah F.A.B.]
Daddy hit the house high, I could tell where he was
The streets discombobulated, niggas'll tell on the plug
Attention to Co High, that's a hell of a drug
They gave my uncle thirty years just for selling some drugs
Meanwhile rapists get five years, what a hell of a judge
Life will fill you up with hate, that's a hell of a grudge
My partner mama still smoke and he still sell crack
He say she was his first customer and he still feel bad
But shit somebody still gon' sell it to her, why not me?
I mean him and his mama the same cause he strung out on E
But who am I to judge? I'm fighting my own addictions
Flashed on my bitch, she wouldn't give me her prescription
We drink all of the Sprites from the corner store
Poured all the soda out, we filled 'em up with Bo
Her mama do it so she said she wanna be a ho
Imagine that, her and her mama bussing tricks on the stro

[Chorus: Mistah F.A.B.]
I say it's time to come together and build with each other
Cause we too busy in these streets tryna kill one another
She ran away from home man, she wasn't feeling her mother
Could never ever say you solid if you steal from your brother
Got no respect for a man cause daddy wasn't around
And watched your mama boyfriend beat her to the ground
Start getting high at a early age to take away the pain
You can leave me with the money, take away the fame
