The negro problem lyrics Chance The Rapper

The negro problem

You know it's dirty when the sink dirty
Nowadays, you thirteen, you gotta think thirty
Can't be out here sitting waiting on the next, man
Wake up early, hit your reps, cook the eggs, man
Keep your head on a swivel 'cause the pistols got switches on 'em
And even little sticks got extensions on 'em
It sound a long way from some whippings, don't it?
It's all the same road with some distance on it
Now it's train police and it's school police
It's gon' be police at the balloon release
Being real, that's business as usual here
Look alive, you could die at a funeral here
It's a lot of complaints but we just can't file 'em
Open case, shut case, still won't solve 'em
The judge said, "What? I don't see no problem"
The world said, "Yup, that's the Negro Problem"

The Negro Problem
The Negro Problem
The Negro Problem

Ooh, I'm sick of you
All your minions so despicable
Me, my typical medical journey
Only takes place when it's critical
I know how you get when it's melanated individuals, huh?
More clinical trials, more chemicals for our women
It's symptoms seem cynical
Give 'em Tylenol and steal the umbilical
Scripts refillable, hey
If I'm billable and gullible enough to go
Might as well show up in a tux, you know
Make sure my hearse and my ducks in rows
'Cause that bill's gon' rupture your bucks, you know?
Malpractice, we still can't file 'em
All know the number, but we just can't dial 'em
The doctor said, "Nurse, I don't see no problem"
The world said, "Yup, that's a Negro Problem"

'Cause it's your problem
Even though we are the same
The Negro Problem
We don't feel your pain
'Cause it's your problem
The Negro Problem
Even though we see your face
The Negro Problem
We don't share your pain
'Cause it's your

My problem is your problem
Your problem is my problem
My problem is your problem
Your problem is my problem

If they say gonna kick his ass or let him go
When it's time to stay or when to go
Street lights, they wanna come home
Stealing shit from the corner store
Remember the first time that you fell in love
The favorite song on the radio
Hanging out with nowhere to go

It's everything, but they never know
Oh, oh-oh, oh
It's everything, but they never know
Oh, oh-oh, oh
It's everything, but they never know

My problem is your problem
Your problem is my problem
My problem is your problem
Your problem is my problem
My problem is your problem
Your problem is my problem
My problem is your problem
Your problem is my problem
