Generate meaning
1
Don't need no rich bitch, to tell me which
2
Fork to use, I paid my dues
3
In a rat-trap building called New York
4
Livin' off beans, greens, and pork
5
In a basement, tenement,
6
No one's got to tell me what it meant
7
To be black, Jack
8
Ace of spades
9
All the car-wash washers and day-work maids
10
Can't wash it off, never fades,
11
It's who you are until you're dead
12
Now ain't that a kick upside the head?
13
Yeah, I know about Pryor and Portier,
14
Can't get higher than Sugar Ray
15
Muhammed Ali and Doctor J
16
And 90% of the N.B.A.
17
Reggie Jackson, Jesse Jackson,
18
Michael and Mahaliah Jackson,
19
Now what's that got to do with me?
20
On the street the only thing I see is:
21
Crack dealers, pocketbook stealers,
22
Coke snorters, Time Square daughters,
23
Eight-year olds who dance for quarters,
24
And tokes, and two-line blows,
25
New Adidas and stereos!
26
That's us! That's it!
27
So don't be tellin' me all that shit!
