[Intro]

Know what it's like to be half nigga

To be half nigga, to be half nigga

Yeah

Joyner

Joyner

[Verse 1: Joyner Lucas]

Know what it's like to be half nigga, just a half nigga (yeah)

My white Mom fell in love with a black nigga (damn)

Just a black nigga

A white lady with a colored kid

I don't even understand what my color is

What my color is (what my color is)

Black, White, Brown, and some other shit

Homie say you ain't allowed with us

I don't even want you hanging out with us (nah)

And quit trying to act like you proud of us

If we were slaves back then, you'd be a house nigga

A house nigga (a house nigga)

Wow nigga, know what I hate the most

A bunch of cartoons with some racist quotes

And subliminal messages and racist jokes

Kinda funny how the money not ours (money not ours)

Yeah the money not ours

All the white motherfuckers got power (damn)

While the black motherfuckers got talent

Trying to get respect that'll never be valid (never be valid)

Never be valid

Even if you had level 3 clearance (yeah)

Even if you had Hillary's parents (yeah)

Even if you were a rap star (rap star)

Even if you had 10 cars and

Even if you had a Red Porsche and a 747 with 10 floors and the best whores

Even if you were a ball player, playing for the Clippers

Just imagine how you would feel if you were Doc Rivers

With a boss like the racist motherfucker Donald Sterling

I've been in and out of feelings, how sad is it (how sad is it shit)

Yeah how bad is it, when your boss got billions of cash and shit

And you stuck at the bottom you ain't half as rich

Fighting to be equal in the battle with

Another race in this land full of happiness

Another day trying to race to establish this

Another way, gotta wait for an activist to come say how we feel

Ain't that some shh.. (ain't that some shit) ain't that some shit

But meanwhile I got morals to stand up for

Can't cause I got a daughter to man up for

Gotta bite my tongue (gotta bite my tongue)

While the life is young if you a black entertainer it'd be nice

To run this shit, but you not shit till the fight is done

And that's just with the icing on the cake

If we didn't break, we'd be twice as strong (twice as strong)

But now it's twice as hard

To be a half nigga living in this life of darkness

All the black kids looking at me like I'm awkward

Cause I'm too light to be on one side of the streets

Now I play both parts, like hide and go seek

Malcolm X gave hope of getting out of the streets

And Rosa Parks was never getting out of her seat

I guess we here for life (here for life)

And I heard Mr. Sterling got banned for life, from the NBA

And He can sell the team

If that don't take away the heat from his self esteem

We in a helpless scene and a helpless time

With no help, trying to help decide, if we in hell or a jail

Can't yell or cry, can't scream or tell

But they can tell us lies nigga

[Outro]

Know what it's like to be half nigga (a half nigga)

Just a half nigga

My white Mom fell in love with a black nigga(just a black nigga)

Just a black nigga

A white lady with a colored kid

I don't even understand what my color is

What my color is (what my color is)

Black, White, Brown, and some other shit

It's kinda funny how the money not ours (money not ours)

Yeah the money not ours

All the white motherfuckers got power (got power)

While the black motherfuckers got talent (got talent)

Trying to get respect that'll never be valid (never be valid)

Never be valid, just a half nigga(a half nigga)

Just a half nigga

(a half nigga)

(a half nigga)

(a half nigga)

(a half nigga)

(a half nigga)

(a half nigga)
