Blu
You Ain’t Never Been Blu(e)
[Intro]
You ain't never been blue
You ain't never been blue
You ain't never been blue
You ain't never been blue
You ain't never been blue

[Verse 1]
Uh, fuck what you going through
Look at what third worlds be going through
Donald Trump is Agent Orange and you still buying orange juice
Foreign groups jacking planes, attacking The Pentagon with little bombs
And you think you the man with your little arms
People dying all over
It's a war going on in the promised land and we still tryna get over
Segregation, police brutality, equal rights
Separate then arm up your families and learn to fight
Cause you ain't never been in war, you don't know what's going on
You at home relaxed, smoking weed, watching porn
But early in the morn' is the corporate slave
Slaving for a higher wage than people who do not behave
Ain't got a diploma or degree and you see
What it did to your future when you just wanted to emcee
You got bums on the street, long lines for unemployment
People getting paid to leave, more people exploited
And if you ever see cigarettes or beef, avoid it
Cause you don't wanna see that face of cancer when that boy hit
Boy it get ugly, people dying up in custody
All beat up and bloody cause they didn't have no money
To fight for a case anyway, shit could happen any day
People die, many go, many stay
But hey, what can you say? It's a brand new day
Long as you ain't in hell, you should tell yourself that

[Chorus]
You ain't never been blue (Bam)
You ain't never been blue (Yeah, trip on that)
You ain't never been blue (Realize the facts)
You ain't never been blue

[Verse 2]
Ayo, picture me all successful, acting like I can't help folks
Acting like they not special cause they all hella broke
You either nine-to-five-in', or you successful and you striving
Everybody else is either dying or crying
You ain't never been hella poor or hella rich
So you sit at your desk feeling blessed for what you get
Which is pleasant if you sit at a desk, people stressing
Cause they can't get a check, what you think happens next?
Get a brick or a mask or a gun and you run
From the law while you sell to the bums, what a scum
Killing people is illegal but it's feasible
So they sell to the slums all the drugs to appease you
To ease your stress when some people just think about death
When they know nothing's left, what's left?
Put your fear on your shelf, bust your ass for a pass
To live life past your twenties unlike folks who die fast
Paul Walker died in a car crash
Michael Brown got shot by a cop, and the block is still hot
Black men afraid to get stopped, pulled over for nothing and popped
Cause they skin color has a different pigment
Pig men picking on the poor for they pension
Leave the families torn, no conviction, friction
Builds higher skyscraper buildings in the slums
And in the night, you can hear all the bums sing and hum saying
[Outro]
You ain't never been blue (Bam)
You ain't never been blue (Trip on that)
You ain't never been blue
