"(rap lyrics) ... and you watch us take it all and then you'll understand our pain! We'll make you the rat that crawled through the cracks. You love that red, white and blue but you hate that black-black-black. And you try to make me think I did this to myself, when the drugs I smoke and the guns I tote both came from your shelf! … But I never had a dream, cuz. My life is a nightmare. America's been my bogey-man for four hundred years!"
