My black skin yea I'm with it, I'm so proud of my pigment
Black in America it feels good to be different
I know I ain't the only one with this kind of vision
My premonition I can see my future in the distance
I gotta stay focused, and be the most consistent
And keep memories when I ain't have a pot to piss in
Remove all my friends that don't communicate or listen
And also the ones that always try to play the victim
Looking at old photos see Henny bottles in my pictures
Now the liquor permanently stained my liver
What a wonderful way to die quicker
All because I want to be an average nigga
My car crash done changed my life it made me open my eyes
Made me realize that real life is not a disguise
Told my queen if theirs a problem keep that between you and I
Because a woman's scorn is known to always spread a few lies
Just another day in the life of a black man
Who got too much PTSD
Social media ain't helping out noway
It's giving me anxiety
Just another day in the life of a black man
So believe me when I say I can't breathe
Got the weight of the world on my shoulder
So Lord please have mercy on me
Dry my skin the devil shines on me now I'm hell's raisin
Kill a man for my pride now I got hell waiting
Decisions that inflicted on my pride
Cause I don't know how to let things slide
If they hate on you, take it as a reflection that you made it
And they didn't, sooner or later they'll learn patience
But keep cautious, what you got they'll try to take it
When trouble comes, true colors show their true faces
In my DM with negativity I just take it and smile
My mindset is too different I can't comprehend with a child
Kobe past, life is short, you want beef get a cow
I treat the booth like my closet I got too many styles
My black skin yea I'm with it, I'm so proud of my pigment
Black in America it feels good to be different
Nipsey started the marathon so I'm going the distance
Humble flex cause I know everything can be gone in an instant
Just another day in the life of a black man
Who got too much PTSD
Social media ain't helping out noway
It's giving me anxiety
Just another day in the life of a black man
So believe me when I say I can't breathe
Got the weight of the world on my shoulder
So Lord please have mercy on me
If you don't know how it feels to be a black man
Then keep your comments to yourself
See I'm hated for one reason that's the color of my skin
I'm just playing the hand that I was dealt
Have you ever had fears of not making it home
Knowing you did everything right but they still gonna treat you wrong
Thanks to the internet it just shows I ain't alone
But thanks to the internet I gotta leave some folks alone
If your first question is what he do, then you're the problem
Do you not realize a black man just got killed in cold blood
Now you wanna play investigators and be problem solvers
Realize officer not every black man is a thug
Now when I leave the crib I keep my gun on my hip
Cause I refuse to not see another day with my kids
Yes you talk to me nice but you don't show me respect
If I don't keep my foot on the gas than your knee on my neck
Just another day in the life of a black man
Who got too much PTSD
Social media ain't helping out noway
It's giving me anxiety
Just another day in the life of a black man
So believe me when I say I can't breathe
Got the weight of the world on my shoulder
So Lord please have mercy on me
