Am7
There's peng black girls in my area code
Bm7 CM7
Dark skin, light skin, medium tone
Permed tings, braids, got mini afros
D9
Thick lips, got hips some of us don’t
Am7
Big nose contour, some of us won’t
Bm7 CM7
Never wanna put us in the media, bro
Want a fat booty like Kardashians? (No)
D9
Want a fat booty like my aunty got, yo (Ayy)
Am7
Wheel up the bloodclart, tell her reload it
Bm7 CM7
I've got the camera, my girls are posin'

Grown woman ting, so I'm never at risk
Am7
Mind my own business so I'm never in mess (Uh)
Bm7
Who am I? I ain't bait (Oh)

Get a slice of the cake
Want a house with a view and a new pair of shoes
D9
Keep it real from the jump
Gucci gang, Lil Pump
Am7
Little vibe, little bass, little kick, little snare
Bm7
Little lies, big truths
CM7
Do you, they don't care
Do you, they don't care
D9
Get your ass out the box and build up from there
Am7
I don't have a gang with me
Bm7 CM7
But I still walk with a gangster lean
And rock Nike's cause we think they're clean
D9
MJ, leather jacket, beat it, Billie Jean

MJ, leather jacket 'cause I think I'm bad
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm7 CM7
That's cool, I like it
The growth, the light

The pain, the fight

We love, we fight

N.C.
ENNY said there's peng black girls in our area codes
Bm7 CM7
These black girls need to be in the shows
Be on the runways, not just mood boards
D9
On top of that, we gotta see them in your team
Am7
Look at your crown, natural relaxed
Bm7 CM7
Had a Jheri curl one time, soft and sheen
Where black girl magic is sometimes blue
D9
Might have broke a hair band or two
Am7
Raise my voice, you gonna say that I'm angry
Bm7 CM7
Kiss my teeth and now you say that I'm hood
Kid at sixteen, you say it's my destiny
D9
Drive a Range, you think I'm up to no good
Am7
Give us a break and let us breathe, man
Bm7 CM7
Give us a chance, let us achieve, fam
And I know that my hair looks a bit different today
Am7
So don't touch my hair
[Verse 3]
Like, new hair, who this?
Bm7 CM7
Old black bomber jacket and the Bantu twists
Look, mind over matter, I can handle this
D9
We're fine, took a second, the rewards in risk
Am7
See, I think that I care too much
Bm7 CM7
Bottle of some Covousier, two cups
D9
I've got nothing to show but you love to check my flaws and all my trials
Am7
I was black back when it wasn't even in style
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm7 CM7
That's cool, I like it
The growth, the light
D9
The pain, the fight
Am7
We love, we fight
Bm7 CM7
We hurt, we cry (No, no)
He paid the price
