I'm America's worst nightmare

I'm young  black  and holding my nuts like  yeah
While ya'll was at the pub  havin' a light beer
I was at the club  havin' a fight there
Ya'll can go home  husband and wife there
My momma at work tryin' to buy me the right gear
Nine years old uncle lost his life here
I grew up thinkin' life ain't fair
How can I get a real job  China white right there
Right in front of my sight like here  yeah
There's ya ticket out the ghetto take flight right here
Tell on me you go bye-bye here  damn
There's a different set of rules we abide by here
You need a gun  niggas might drive by here
Ya'll havin' fun  racin' all ya hot-rods there
Downloadin' all our music on ya iPods there
I'm Chuck-D  standin' in the crosshairs here
Ya'll straight  chicks got horse hair here
Ya'll ain't gotta be in fear of ya'll bosses there
You lose your job  your pop rich  ya'll don't care
So I don't care  ya'll acting like ya'll don't hear
All the screams from the ghetto
Or the teens ducking metal here

So they steam like a kettle here
Trying to take they mind to a whole different level here
Yeah  we real close to devil here
Got to be a better way somebody call a reverend here
Yeah  have mercy really be in heaven here
Somebody tell God that we got a couple of questions here
My little cousin never got to see his seventh year
And I'm so used to pain that I ain't even shed a tear
