Kendrick Lamar - The Blacker The Berry(2015)

[00:00.37] Everything black, I don't want black (They want us to bow)
[00:03.83] I want everything black, I ain't need black (Down to our knees)
[00:06.42] Some white, some black, I ain't mean black (And pray to a God)
[00:09.07] I want everything black (That we don't believe)
[00:10.76] Everything black, want all things black
[00:13.45] I don't need black, want everything black
[00:15.97] Don't need black, our eyes ain't black
[00:18.91] I own black, own everything black
[00:21.87] Six in the morn', fire in the street
[00:26.68] Burn, baby, burn, that's all I wanna see
[00:33.36] And sometimes I get off watchin' you die in vain
[00:36.85] It's such a shame they may call me crazy
[00:40.24] They may say I suffer from schizophrenia or somethin'
[00:42.95] But homie, you made me
[00:47.30] Black don't crack, my nigga
[00:54.49] I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015
[00:56.95] Once I finish this, witnesses will convey just what I mean
[00:59.89] Been feeling this way since I was 16, came to my senses
[01:02.74] You never liked us anyway, fuck your friendship, I meant it
[01:05.58] I'm African-American, I'm African
[01:07.32] I'm black as the moon, heritage of a small village
[01:10.16] Pardon my residence
[01:11.35] Came from the bottom of mankind
[01:13.27] My hair is nappy, my dick is big, my nose is round and wide
[01:16.12] You hate me don't you?
[01:17.66] You hate my people, your plan is to terminate my culture
[01:19.94] You're fuckin' evil I want you to recognize that I'm a proud monkey
[01:23.63] You vandalize my perception but can't take style from me
[01:26.44] And this is more than confession
[01:27.61] I mean I might press the button just so you know my discretion
[01:30.30] I'm guardin' my feelings, I know that you feel it
[01:33.92] You sabotage my community, makin' a killin'
[01:35.33] You made me a killer, emancipation of a real nigga
[01:37.94] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[01:40.89] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[01:43.38] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[01:45.88] The blacker the berry, the bigger I shoot
[01:48.56] I said they treat me like a slave, cah' me black
[01:51.20] Woi, we feel a whole heap of pain, cah' we black
[01:53.53] And man a say they put me inna chains, cah' we black
[01:56.55] Imagine now, big gold chains full of rocks
[01:59.06] How you no see the whip, left scars pon' me back
[02:01.79] But now we have a big whip parked pon' the block
[02:04.69] All them say we doomed from the start, cah' we black
[02:07.70] Remember this, every race start from the block, just remember that
[02:11.19] I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015
[02:13.26] Once I finish this, witnesses will convey just what I mean
[02:16.14] I mean, it's evident that I'm irrelevant to society
[02:19.29] That's what you're telling me, penitentiary would only hire me
[02:21.79] Curse me till I'm dead
[02:23.04] Church me with your fake prophesizing that I'mma be just another slave in my head
[02:26.81] Institutionalized manipulation and lies
[02:29.76] Reciprocation of freedom only live in your eyes
[02:32.49] You hate me don't you?
[02:33.78] I know you hate me just as much as you hate yourself
[02:36.29] Jealous of my wisdom and cards I dealt
[02:38.34] Watchin' me as I pull up, fill up my tank, then peel out
[02:40.80] Muscle cars like pull ups, show you what these big wheels 'bout, ah
[02:43.72] Black and successful, this black man meant to be special
[02:47.10] CAT scans on my radar, bitch, how can I help you?
[02:49.72] How can I tell you I'm making a killin'?
[02:51.63] You made me a killer, emancipation of a real nigga
[02:54.60] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[02:58.33] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[02:59.86] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[03:02.31] The blacker the berry, the bigger I shoot
[03:05.02] I said they treat me like a slave, cah' me black
[03:07.73] Woi, we feel a whole heap of pain, cah' we black
[03:09.86] And man a say they put me inna chains, cah' we black
[03:12.72] Imagine now, big gold chains full of rocks
[03:15.56] How you no see the whip, left scars pon' me back
[03:18.41] But now we have a big whip parked pon' the block
[03:20.99] All them say we doomed from the start, cah' we black
[03:23.85] Remember this, every race start from the block, just remember that
[03:27.28] I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015
[03:29.99] When I finish this if you listenin' then sure you will agree
[03:32.66] This plot is bigger than me, it's generational hatred
[03:35.15] It's genocism, it's grimy, little justification
[03:37.64] I'm African-American, I'm African
[03:40.14] I'm black as the heart of a fuckin' Aryan
[03:43.14] I'm black as the name of Tyrone and Darius
[03:44.99] Excuse my French but fuck you — no, fuck y'all
[03:47.44] That's as blunt as it gets, I know you hate me, don't you?
[03:49.91] You hate my people, I can tell cause it's threats when I see you
[03:52.98] I can tell cause your ways deceitful
[03:54.52] Know I can tell because you're in love with that Desert Eagle
[03:57.23] Thinkin' maliciously, he get a chain then you gone bleed him
[03:59.74] It's funny how Zulu and Xhosa might go to war
[04:02.56] Two tribal armies that want to build and destroy
[04:05.28] Remind me of these Compton Crip gangs that live next door
[04:08.19] Beefin' with Pirus, only death settle the score
[04:10.48] So don't matter how much I say I like to preach with the Panthers
[04:13.52] Or tell Georgia State "Marcus Garvey got all the answers"
[04:16.32] Or try to celebrate February like it's my B-Day
[04:19.09] Or eat watermelon, chicken, and Kool-Aid on weekdays
[04:21.79] Or jump high enough to get Michael Jordan endorsements
[04:24.40] Or watch BET cause urban support is important
[04:27.10] So why did I weep when Trayvon Martin was in the street?
[04:29.67] When gang banging make me kill a nigga blacker than me?
[04:32.44] Hypocrite!
[04:37.67]
