Nexperience
[CeeLo Green]
Well, alright...
I stood and fought
Then I taught myself to talk
I changed my clothes
But I kept my nigga nose
I sang and danced
And made sure you have a chance
Come on
Yeah
After all I done
You know what?
I'm still the nigga, yeah
Oh, I walked the line
And the cameras caught the crime
I broke the rules
With a pair of dancing shoes
Committed blasphemy
And even let you laugh at me
Oh, come on
Yessir
After all I’ve done
Behind me
Still the nigga, uh-uh, yeah
Now my name in description
Is 'stranger than fiction'
I profane with conviction
When I explain it’s a prism
So I'm aiming to kill 'em
From this range I can't miss 'em
They're detaining for dealing
And arraigning for killing
But I'm sane in the prison
And I'm blaiming the system
Proclaiming the mission
And I’m changing the position
While my brain’s in remission
My chains seem to glisten
And my pain seems to strengthen
With the danger we live in
When they bang, Lord, forgive 'em
Now the gang is religion
And my fame is appealing
But my lane is indifferent
And I’m famous for feeling
My brand name is a building
Pop music is pornography
They're game is for children
I'm the same if you listen
You can change, if you listen
These niggas are just too cool
They're ashamed of the rhythm
My flame is a vision
Just plain criticisim
With pain and affection
What they’re saying's unconvincing
You see, I hate nigga shit
Unless it's great nigga shit
You would sit in here for hours
And debate nigga shit
Expendable and ignorant
Is what they equate niggas with
'Yeah, that shit sound good'
But is making nigga sick
And is it making niggas rich?
Or making niggas' nigga rich?
You used to be my black queen
Now even you a nigga bitch
