Judged by the way that I look inside
they're killing and lying with so much pride
using my name to attack the dead
they close their eyes while being misled.
A black man with honor they'll try to attack
not telling the truth is what they attrack
so many people are out in the street
moments like this for me aren't sweet.
Precious children are forced to lie
they're killing black boys & also black guys
knowing they all have been in the wrong
the hate they have for me is real strong.
Judged by ones who would know me so well
believing the lies that they would tell
lying and cheating and trying to be cool
one good look & you'll see them as fools.
