Lyrics
Yeah, see, you a little dismayed
Cause my molars, bicuspids and canines is bustin
But whole time I could be an Olympic gold medalist or somethin
Look, could it be my skinny jeans and my gold teeth that make me different
Or my colloquialisms, why you feel so dismissive
And you assume because I'm slugged up and I talk with rhythm
That I'm a goon and you a target on my newest mission
I got more chance of getting shot in my back
By a cop cause I'm black
Than you will ever have walking down the street getting attacked
And these are facts backed by statistical data
That's the part that makes it sadder
I just get more madder as you scatter to the other side of the road
Cause you just know my dental jewelry makes me stick to some codes
That you feel is imposed
Cause you watch the people that look like me
Always be thugs on movies and TV shows
You know
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm from the streets nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm I'm I'm from the streets nigga
I serve my country, feed my fam and go to work to get money
You judge a book based off it's cover but it ain't hurting me dummy
But it's certainly funny that you let that propaganda
Stand in the way if you treating me like a man, huh
Damn bruh, I was never worried bout you
Paying you zero attention, got my own stuff to do
But my appearance gave you clearance to jump to conclusions
Thought I would beat you in your head, leave you lumped with contusions
Sixteen of my teeth is gold, I'm from the streets mo'
Threaten me or my people then I go into beast mode
But that's for special circumstances, case by case basis
Cause I love all races, there could never be a racist but
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm from the streets nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm I'm I'm from the streets nigga
Yeah my teeth gold, check my shoe game, yeah my feet cold
Carry permit good in 30 states so yeah my heat cold
But these folks who hate me solely based on my appearance
Don't care about the fact I got a security clearance
Or the fact I raise my kids and be respectful to all
Or the fact my 401k set up for me to retire and ball
I can't entirely fall cause I make strides to prevail
Put all your eggs in one basket and yeah you trying to fail
And these are things that I have gathered from reading, living and learning
Can't let your disdain for my color detract from my earnings
Can't stop, won't stop, gotta keep, keep getting
P-H-U-C-K-Y-O-U, if you feelin' different cause
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm from the streets nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm I'm I'm from the streets nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm from the streets nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I got gold teeth nigga
Yea nigga yea nigga I'm I'm I'm I'm from the streets nigga
