Oprah, Bill Cosby and MJ get the proverbial pass
but, the great majority of my people you kick in the ass
In sports and entertainment you love the magic that we do
but, on a day to day basis with us you are too through
We are the Chefs that bring "flava" to your bland culture
but, you look down on us the eyes of a vulture
When we play the game your way-our successes you love to track
but, like Kaepernick when we stand up for our people-you are like Brutus and stick a knife in our back
White America is filled with label pin politics and hack political writers
these zealots that pass themselves off on Fox News as freedom fighters
A few Black folks get a modicum of respect and your "club" we are allowed to join
the rest of us you would like to ship out of here because we are-the other side of the coin
