My hooptie rollin’, tailpipe draggin’
Heat don’t work an’ my girl keeps naggin’
Six-nine Buick, deuce keeps rollin’

Yes, exactly this right here. As I white person who possesses an ounce of fucking empathy, I cannot for the life of me understand how black Americans can hold this country in anything but absolute contempt.
