Chef Boy JB - Depressed Black Man Lyrics

You ever stand in the shower
And think about your life
Well as a black man I have to
Tell myself you'll be alright
Sometimes I think I might
But then sometimes I wonder
Am I even doing things right
Do people understand
What a black man have to fight

I will always do what I can
But I'm just saying
Sometimes I be feeling like a
Depressed black man

I look in the mirror and say
I don't know yo
If I will ever connect with a sista
Have some kids
Running around
With some Afros

When you have thoughts like that
You have to stop and say whoa
I know that's pretty deep I know
But sometimes you gotta go
To go deep to the
Root of things so you can grow

Even if you feeling depressed
You gotta let things go
Can't talk to the doctors
They like to run scans
I would like to dodge the pill-taking doc
If I can I'm just saying

I have to look in the mirror
And say black man
What the plan
I'm just saying sometimes I
Be just be feeling like a
Depressed black man

I don't want to lose but sometimes
As a black man, i feel like
I don't have the clues
What do you do when you feel
You missing screws
Is this too real talking about
Black men mental health issues

Throughout the years black men
Have been stressed
Well what about the black men
Who always feel depressed
They tell us you got a wife a job
You alive you blessed
No bro my homie just caught an arrest
I confess black men we go through lot of mess

When you get pulled over in
Your Honda sedan
You better man sure you don't
Piss off Officer Klan
What you talking about
You can't see my hands
Officer Klan Officer Klan
I'm just saying sometimes
I just be feeling like
A depressed Black man
Damn did Bobby make this beat
