You told us
we hold these truths to be self-evident
that all men and women are created equal
and that they are endowed
by their Creator
with certain unalienable rights
among these are life, liberty, and the-
and the pursuit of happiness
Young, Black, wild and free
Naked in a limousine
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Riding through the hood real slow
I love it when I smell the trees
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I just wanna party hard
Sex in the swimming pool
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I don't need a lot of cash
I just wanna break the rules
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
We don't need another ruler
All of my friends are kings
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm not America's nightmare
I'm the American dream
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Just let me live my life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
I don't need a diamond ring
I don't wanna waste my youth
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I don't wanna live on my knees
I just have to tell the truth, baby
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I don't wanna be let down
I don't wanna cheat on you
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I just wanna find a God
And I hope she loves me too
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
We don't need another ruler
We don't need another fool
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm not America's nightmare
I'm the American cool
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Just let me live my life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
Crazy, classic, life
Yeah, uh, yea, yea, yea, uh
Handcuffed in a bandeau
White boy in his sandals
Police like a Rambo
Blow it out, blow it out
like a candle, Sambo
Me and you was friends,
but to them, we the opposite
The same mistake, I'm in jail,
you on top of shit
You living life
while I'm walking around moppin' shit
Tech kid, backpack,
no, you a college kid
All I wanted was to break
the rules like you
All I wanted was someone to love me too
But no matter where
it was I always stood out
Black Waldo dancing with the thick brows
We was both running naked at the luau
We was both on shrooms praying
face down, waist down
Remember when they told you
I was too Black for ya?
And now my Black poppin'
like a bra-strap on ya
I was kicked out, said I'm too loud
Kicked out, said I'm too proud
But all I really ever
felt was stressed out
Kinda like my afro
when it's pressed out
