I'm Black...[Stop the stereotypes!]
 
lyrics for an audio track...
*Writing another song...and recently this topic has been on my mind. People are too stereotypical nowadays and think that because you are a certain race...then you must act a certain way*

[skit]
Person: Did you guys hear the new G-Unit Cd? Yo, that shit is beyond ill, Banks kills dat shit
T-West: Nah, it was nothing special...you know whuch group really has talent tho? Linkin Park. Espically Mike Shinoda.

[Everybody Pauses]

T-West: What?
Person: Tristen...your so white [White echos]

Yo...
Some call me white, though my skin colour is brown
Im black, Im accused of every crime in town
They say I must be actin white, cuz Im loved by der "g"s
But then why so many white kids watchin BET?
Sayin I'm white cuz it ain't only slang dat I say
and rap ain't the only thing my stereo plays
If I'm white, then our vision has been tellin us lies
so the grass is really blue and green's the colour of the sky
Stereotypical beliefs, people please, use ur brains
It don't make you a negro cuz u wear a platinum chain
We got kids in Escalades, equipped wit dem rims
The definition of black is not if u wear gucci tims
Cuz I'm black, people thinkin that I must love chicken
It's like theirs rules to each race is what ya'll are thinkin
So if you think that I'm white, we dont needa hear ur voice
Sure Im black by chance...but Im proud by choice


Some of ya'll caught in confusion, livin in an illusion
dat a cop cars the only place a black man is crusin
Even gurls make me laugh, just the thoughts of ya'll
[Female voice]
"Tris ain't black cuz he ain't only after booty calls"




All I have so far...still in process of finishing it off, was just thinkin in class and started writing.

Nice concept .. A little repetitive at times .. But still nice concept .. Easy to follow .. I think U should go back over and try to put more emotion into it tho .. I think U can make it better .. But for wat it was it was pretty nice ..

Dope Concept
 
Dope concept... goes both ways
had emotion (anger) behind
had multies, good flow, decent structure, (lengthen it)
Definately stayed on topic
I was looking forward for more verses (keep at it)

Work on wordplay, voab. multies

(Just a suggestion)


I'll be looikng for up'd version or audio
