Ice-t - Black Hoodie lyrics

[Intro] All these people out here tripping off police brutality like this sh** is something new Give me a f**ing break I've been talking about this sh** for over 20 years And now you can k** a motherf**er just because of how he's dressed Are you f**ing serious [Hook] Got on a black hoodie, its hood up on my head I didn't have a gun so why am I dead You didn't have to shoot me and that's a known fact And now I'm laying face down with bullets in my back Got on a black hoodie, its hood up on my head I didn't have a gun so why am I dead You didn't have to shoot me and that's a known fact And now I'm laying face down with bullets in my back [Verse 1] This is how it happened Out late night just chilling with my clique No one had a gun, everyone's legit One of my boys is drunk, I'm talking toe'd up He can barely talk off that Cognac Then the cops roll up, I don't know why he ran Maybe traffic warrants I still don't understand That motherf**er's crazy, the homies laughed He might've got a block and then we heard shots The f**ing cop shot him, yo a n***a's dead They hit him twice in the back, once in the head and leg We all went crazy on that pig sh** They aimed at us, they meant business They didn't have to shoot him, he didn't have a gun What they're gonna say is "Why the f** he run?" We can't be seeing this, I'm like "What the f**?" My man's laying dead, they still cuffing him up [Interlude] You motherf**ers, call the f**ing paramedics man My man's not breathing, man What the f**'s the matter with you, man? Aw sh** [Hook] Got on a black hoodie, its hood up on my head I didn't have a gun so why am I dead You didn't have to shoot me and that's a known fact And now I'm laying face down with bullets in my back Got on my black hoodie, its hood up on my head I didn't have a gun so why am I dead You didn't have to shoot me and that's a known fact And now I'm laying face down with bullets in my back [Bridge] Woop woop, that's the sound of the police Woop woop, that's the sound on the streets Woop woop, that's the sound of the police That's the sound on the streets Woop woop, that's the sound of the police Woop woop, that's the sound on the streets [Verse 2] Now it's our day in court, we gotta have hope Maybe some justice, someone got it on video They say do something, he used to gang bang They made my homie look like f**ing sh** on everything Had on a black hoodie, that's all it took The DA portrayed him as a dirty f**ing street crook They let the cops off, nobody f**ing marched Nobody had a clue, it's never made the news [Bridge] Woop woop, that's the sound of the police Woop woop, that's the sound on the streets Woop woop, that's the sound of the police That's the sound on the streets Woop woop, that's the sound of the police Woop woop, that's the sound on the streets [Outro] Got on my black hoodie Got on my black hoodie Got on my black hoodie
