Young Black Brotha
Mac Dre Lyrics

Young black brotha can never be a lover
The young black man cannot imagine himself as someone who unconditionally loves a woman.

He keeps a joint in one hand and heem in the other
He holds a marijuana cigarette in one hand and an alcoholic beverage called Heem in the other.

So fly you never see him buming
He looks so stylish that no one would ever think he's poor.

He's never had a job and keeps a pocket full of money
He never worked and always carries a lot of cash with him.

Live low daytons and vogues
He drives two types of expensive cars, Dayton and Vogue, that sit low to the ground.

A beeper on his belt and a gang of hos
He wears a beeper on his belt and is always surrounded by many women.

Been in and out of jail sense the day he was ten
He has been incarcerated several times since he was ten years old.

The hall, the county, and next is the pen
So far, he's been arrested and tried in juvenile hall and county jail and could get sentenced to prison next.

See really doesn't know what the games about
He doesn't understand the risks and consequences of life as a criminal.

Get in stack a bank and get the fuck out
He thinks that a criminal's mission is to rob a bank and flee.

Because a D-boys life is cool at first
In the beginning, he may enjoy being a drug dealer or distributor.

But in the end it's the pen or even wares a hearst
But eventually a D-boy may end up in jail or even in a funeral hearse.

Young brotha loves to get keyed

Some call him a sad case but who do that figga

Many want to be like that young nigga
