Musiq: I am everyday people I am everyday people See, I was resting at the park, minding my own Business as I kick up the treble tone On my radio tape player box, right Just loud enough so folks could hear it's hype, see Outta nowhere, comes the woman I'm dating Investigation maybe she was demonstrating But nevertheless, I was pleased My day was going great and my soul was at ease Until a group of brothers started bugging out Drinking the 40 ounce, going the nigga route Disrespecting my black queen Holding their crotches and being obscene At first, I ignored them, 'cause, see, I know the type They got drunk, they got guns, and yeah, they wanna fight And they see a young couple having a time that's good So their egos wanna test a brother's manhood So they came to test 'cause of my hair-do And the loud bright colors that I wear I was a target, 'cause I'm a fashion misfit And the outfit that I'm wearing, brothers dissing it Well, I stay calm and pray the brothers leave me be But they're squeezing parts of my date's anatomy Why, Lord, do brothers have to drill me? 'Cause if I start to hit this man, they'll have to kill me I am everyday people I am everyday people I told the niggaz, please, let us pass, friend I said, please, 'cause I don't like killing Africans But he wouldn't stop, and I ain't But I had to take the brother out for being rude And like I said before, I was mad by then It took three or four cops to pull me off of him And that's the story, y'all, about a black man Acting like a brother and getting stomped by an African I am everyday people I am everyday people Come on Estelle: See the moral of the story is Everybody needs to change their way of thinking Being ignorant never got nobody nowhere It's not even worth it You know, you know, you know, you know Hit it Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I I am everyday people I am everyday people Ah, ah, oh I Ah, ah, oh I Ah, ah, oh I
