America
Ha ha ha we love you
How many people are proud
To be citizens
Ofthis beautiful
Country of ours
The stripes and the stars
For the rights that men
Have died for to protect
The women and men
Who have broke their necks
For the freedom of speech
The United States Government
Has sworn to uphold
Or so we're told
I never would've dreamed
In a million years I'd see
So many motherf##kin' people
Who feel like me
Who share the same views
And the same exact beliefs
It's like a f##kin' army
Marchin' in back of me
So many lives I touch
So much anger aimed
In no particular direction
Just sprays and sprays
And straight
Through your radio waves
It plays and plays
'Til it stays stuck
In your head for days and days
Who would of thought
Standing in this mirror
Bleachin' my hair
With some peroxide
Reachin for a t-shirt to wear
That I would catapult
To the forefront
Of rap like this
How could I predict my words
Would have an impact like this
I must've struck a chord
With somebody up in the office
Cause congress keeps telling me
I ain't causin'
Nuthin' but problems
And now they're sayin'
I'm in trouble
With the government
I'm lovin' it
I shoveled s##t all my life
And now I'm dumping it on
White America
I could be one ofyour kids
White America
Little Eric looks just like this
White America
Erica loves my s##t
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs I get
White America
I could be one ofyour kids
White America
Little Eric looks just like this
White America
Erica Loves my s##t
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs I get
Look at these eyes
Baby blue
Babyjust like yourself
lfthey were brown
Shady lose
Shady sits on the shelf
But Shady's cute
Shady knew
Shady's dimple's would help
Make ladies swoon
Baby {ooh baby}
Look at my sales
Let's do the math
If I was black
I would've sold half
I ain't have to graduate
From Lincoln high school
To know that
But I could rap
So f##k school
I'm too cool to go back
Gimme the mic
Show me where the
F##kin' studio's at
When I was underground
No one gave a f##k I was white
No labels wanted to sign me
Almost gave up
I was like f##k it
Until I met Dre
The only one to look past
Gave me a chance
And I lit a fire up
Under his ass
Helped him get back to the top
Every fan black that I got
Was probably his
In exchange for every white fan
That he's got
Like damn we just swapped
Sittin' back lookin' at
S##t wow
I'm like my skin is
It starting to work
To my benefit now it's
White America
I could be one ofyour kids
White America
Little Eric looks just like this
White America
Erica loves my s##t
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs I get
White America
I could be one ofyour kids
White America
Little Eric looks just like this
White America
Erica loves my s##t
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs I get
See the problem is
I speak to suburban kids
Who otherwise would of
Never knew these words exist
Whose mom's probably would of
Never gave two squirts of piss
'Till I created so much
Motherf##kin' turbulence
Straight out the tube
Right into your
Living rooms I came
And kids flipped when they knew
I was produced by Dre
That's all it took
And they were instantly hooked
Right in
And they connected with me too
Because I looked like them
That's why they
Put my lyric's up
Under this microscope
Searchin' with a
Fine tooth comb
It's like this rope
Waitin' to choke
Tightening around my throat
Watching me while I write this
Like I don't like this
Nope all I hear is
Lyrics lyrics
Constant controversy
Sponsors working
'Round the clock
To try to stop
My concerts early
Surely hip-hop
Was never a problem
In Harlem only in Boston
After it bothered the fathers
Of daughters
Starting to blossom
So now
I'm catchin' the flack
From these activists
When they raggin'
Actin' like I'm the first
Rapper to smack a b##ch
Or say faggot s##t
Just look at me
Like I'm your closest pal
The posterchild
The motherf##kin'
Spokesman now for
White America
I could be one ofyour kids
White America
Little Eric looks just like this
White America
Erica loves my s##t
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs I get
White America
I could be one ofyour kids
White America
Little Eric looks just like this
White America
Erica loves my s##t
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs I get
So to the parents of America
I am the derringer
Aimed at little Erica
To attack her character
The ringleader of this circus
Ofworthless pawns
Sent to lead the march
Right up to
The steps of congress
And piss on the lawns
Of the White House
To burn the casket
And replace it with a
Parental advisory sticker
To spit liquor in the faces
Ofthis democracy
Of hypocrisy
F##k you Ms Cheney
F##k you Tipper Gore
F##k you with the
Freest of speech this
Divided states of embarassment
Will allow me to have
F##k you
Heh hahaha
I'm just playin' America
You know I love you
