Lyrics
The black cop
Took me to the black top
Judged me on my jump shot
Tested me for punk rock
The black cop
Asked me for my black card
Identification
We building a nation
Say that
My black card
He got it suspended
Told me I was bending
Rules of the culture
How tho?
Pink paint all over my toes now
Pops wouldn't like that
Black cop said I look like
I won't fight back
She said That I could beat that
So I got my card back
Caught me with a -
Then I got my card snatched
Black cop tell me that there been rules
This ain't nothing new new
Current generations
Holding onto roots
that resist mutation
Whole lotta laws for a home
That's vacant
Switching up the code
So they never have to work
And the jobs on us
For the white translation
The black cop
Look after the ladies
Well only the pretty ones
Who drive Mercedes
And dress in floral
Teaches me game and
he calls it morals
I'm not convinced he's good
The black cop
Tell if you black or not
Tell ya if ya worthy
Black cop promised
That he would not hurt me
The black cop
Took me to the black top
Judged me on my jump shot
Tested me for punk rock
The black cop
Asked me for my black card
Identification
We building a nation
Say that
