Dark child, dark child
Dark child, runnin' wild on curse land
Dark child, no smile just open hands
Dark child
Yeah, dark child
It's no such thing as a coincidence
It's no wonder why you feel the way you feel
Why you are where you are
We are an oppressed people
Black people
Money makes the world twirl
Money buys the girls pearls
Money buys the men Benz's and gives independence
Hollow points, and the tips burn like an incense
Shit we lost our innocence when we couldn't keep up with the rent
Probably go buy a block of weed and break it to increments
Robberies on every Halloween about them Benjamins
Went from stealin' out the corner store to really hittin' licks
Mama strict but we poverty stricken mixed with ignorant
Shit ain't healthy for a kid when the tooth fairy don't exist
When you young and they ain't scratchin nothin' off your Christmas list
Can't afford the butter or the sugar to put in your grits
So we grind like f*ck the butter and the suga I want shrimp
All our teachers condescending talkin' to us like we pits
When to eat, when to sit
Even when to take a piss
Barely graduated, the word college never left my lips
But I'm steady ballin' like I got athletic scholarships
Probably coulda made it out with the proper resources
Wasn't no inherent money or properties for me
Statistically it'd be a miracle if I see 40
This shit was by design but that's a whole different story
Dark child, runnin' wild on cursed land
Dark child, no smile just open hands
Dark child
Yeah, dark child
All my life I been strugglin
Is it ever gon' change
Sometimes I feel cursed
They throw dirt on my name
I don't deserve this pain
But I guess it just come with the territory
Dark child, dark child
Dark child, dark child
I ain't seen you in a while, dark child
Go and make your mama proud, dark child
I know your daddy ain't around, dark child
But if he show his face, then you gotta show him grace
Don't get in your own way, dark child
When your spirit feelin' shook, better pray dark child
Say amen and tuck that flamer by your waist, dark child
You be safe cause them devils on they way, dark child
It ain't no such thing as a coincidence
We still slaves with all these prison bids
All of this hate gets so meticulous
Work dark child, don't leet 'em give you shit
No such thing as a coincidence
We still slaves with all these prison bids
All of this hate gets so meticulous
Work, dark child, don't let 'em give you shit
Don't let 'em give you shit
