Uccchh, The Qor - BLack in CoLorado Lyrics

Being Black in Colorado
Being Black in Colorado

You would think I hit the lotto
Way I'm hype about some tacos
Address way before Dorado
Raised in Eastside and Montbello
Now I'm Duckin dodgin 5-0
Real estate bought up like pronto
Gassed up shawty semiauto
Being Black in Colorado
You would think I hit the lotto
Way I'm hype about some tacos
Address way before Dorado
Raised in Eastside and Montbello
Now I'm Duckin dodgin 5-0
Real estate bought up like pronto
Gassed up shawty semiauto
Being Black in Colorado

Notice how I'm pullin up
These streets I know too well (Skkrrtt!)
The aves, the roads, the blvds
A difference i can tell
Neighborhoods vary in look
the creeks and hills for sure
Still hearing in between the walls
So why they charging more? (Why they charging this?)
Gentrified the Five Points
Replacing quality with wack shit
Typical of white people
Tryna emulate the Black shit
The fact is
It's not lit
Denver nights anticlimactic
Breweries on every corner
Beer ain't got me doin backflips (No it don't)
Seeking my community
Not new to me
This wave is
Born and raised here
So I'm Rare to meet
Us natives an anomaly
I'm fond of me
Quite honestly
Unappreciated constantly
Gotta roll into Aurora
For acknowledgement lookin like me
Black in Colorado
Needing moisture in the air
I show up how I wanna be
Yall never cease the stare
It's tiring (I'm tired) I'm used to it (I'm tired)
White guilt i cannot coddle (I'm tired)
I spew the excerpts I go through bein
Black in Colorado

You would think I hit the lotto
Way I'm hype about some tacos
Address way before Dorado
Raised in Eastside and Montbello
Now I'm Duckin dodgin 5-0

Peeps I went to school with
Relocated to the south
Screaming 'for the culture'
From ATL or from H-town
Black culture in other places
Much different than my own
Being Black in other white states too
I kno I'm not alone
Having to explain your hairdos (What the fuck?)
Thinkin bout the colors worn
I ain't even talkin gangbang
Another double edged sword
It's too much or it's too little (Too much)
Fake gatekeepers every turn (Too little)
City stingy with resources (Too much)
Residents feelin that burn (Too little)
I'm usually invisible (Mmhm)
I take advantage of that plug
Until yall on the sidewalk
Can't say excuse me in the club
Puttin them days behind me
Soon enough this box state too
Takin my ass to a place
I can be comfortable as Uccchh (For the culture!)
That means different foods
Options too
Diverse range of things to do
Space to function
Hella cooo
Be me however i choose
You'd think it'd be so simple
But it's layers to the shit
I get all sentimental
Thinkin what was and what is

You would think I hit the lotto
Way I'm hype about some tacos
Address way before Dorado
Raised in Eastside and Montbello
Now I'm Duckin dodgin 5-0

We struggle from the start
The struggle makes us hard
The struggle harden hearts
The struggle makes us smart
The struggle make us wise
It makes us cry
It makes us tremble
The struggle makes us realize that expressions have no symbols
The struggle make me wanna do some drugs forget I'm living
Wake up in the morning
Whole lot of thanks givin
Keep callin me a turkey
Ima show you how I pilgrim
Aye ain't nobody touching me
I grew up on that olive street
I planted many olive trees
Why they make a branch of me
These hoes is out here matching weaves
I'm in here matching beats and weed
Get rich before I D I E
That's always been the P L Ay
I'm out here tryna snatch the game
I'm in it for the fortune fame
I'm mighty mighty greatness
And that's mighty fuckin fair
I'm Black in colorado
No this black is everywhere
I'm Black in colorado
No this black is everywhere
I'm Black in colorado
No this black is everywhere
Bitch I'm rare

You would think I hit the lotto
Way I'm hype about some tacos
Address way before Dorado
Raised in Eastside and Montbello
Now I'm Duckin dodgin 5-0
