(Prelude) America! We love you! How many people are proud to be citizens of this
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. (Yo I want
everybody to listen to the words of this song) or so we're told...
Verse 1 I never would've dreamed in a million years I'd see, so many motherfuckin'
people who feel like me/who share the same views and the same exact beliefs, it's
like a fuckin' 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, till it stays stuck in your head for days and
days/who woulda 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, cuz 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 shit all my life/and now I'm dumping it on...
Chorus X2 White America! I could be one of your kids White America! Little Eric
looks just like this White America! Erica loves my shit I go to TRL, look how
many hugs I get Verse 2 Look at these eyes, baby blue, baby just like yourself, if
they were brown Shady lose, Shady sits on the shelf/but Shady's cute, Shady knew
Shady's dimples would help, make ladies swoon baby, ooh baby! Look at my
sales/Lets 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 fuck school, I'm too
cool to go back, gimme the mic, show me where the fuckin' studio's at/When I was
underground, no one gave a fuck I was white, no labels wanted to sign me almost
gave up, I was like/Fuck 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 shit, wow, I'm like my skin is it
starting to work to my benefit now? Chorus X2 Verse 3 See the problem is I speak
to suburban kids who otherwise would of never knew these words exist/whose
moms probably woulda never gave two squirts of piss, till I created so much
motherfuckin' turbulence/straight out the tube, right into your living room 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 lyrics up under this microscope, searchin' with a
fine tooth comb, its 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 bitch, or say faggot/shit, just look at me like I'm your closest pal, the posterchild,
the mother fuckin' spokesman now for...
Chorus X2
Verse 4 So to the parents of America / I am the derringer aimed at little Erica, to
attack her character / The ringleader of this circus of worthless pawns / Sent to lead
the march right up to the steps of Congress / And piss on the lawns of the White
House and replace it with a Parental Advisory sticker / To spit liquor in the faces of
in this democracy of hypocrisy / Fuck you Ms. Cheney! Fuck you Tipper Gore!
Fuck you with the freest of speech this divided states of embarassment will allow
me to have, Fuck you! I'm just kiddin' America, you know I love you...
