Got us learning about the heroes with the whitest of skin
One thing about the men that's controlling the pen

Maybe we'll never see a black man in the White House again
I'll write a check to the IRS, my pockets get slim
Damn, do I even have a say 'bout where it's goin'?
Some older nigga told me to start votin'
I said "Democracy is too fuckin' slow"
If I'm givin' y'all this hard-earned bread, I wanna know
Better yet, let me decide, bitch, it's 2018

Better that than letting wack congressman I've never seen
Dictate where my money go, straight into the palms of some
Money-hungry company that make guns that circulate the country
And then wind up in my hood, making bloody clothes
Stray bullet hit a young boy with a snotty nose
From the concrete, he was prolly rose
Now his body froze and nobody knows what to tell his mother
He did good at the white man schools unlike his brother
Who was lost in the streets all day, not using rubbers
So right now, he got two on the way
Still sleep on covers in his mama house
She can't take this shit no more, she want him out

Où vont mes dollars ? Tu vois, dernièrement, je n'ai pas été convaincu
I guess they say my dollars supposed to build roads and schools
Je suppose qu'ils disent que mes dollars sont censés construire des routes et des écoles
But my niggas barely graduate, they ain't got the tools
Mais mes négros à peine diplômés, ils n'ont pas les outils
Maybe 'cause the tax dollars that I make sure I send
Peut-être parce que les dollars d'impôts que je m'assure d'envoyer
Get spent hirin' some teachers that don't look like them
Sont dépensés pour embaucher des enseignants qui ne leur ressemblent pas
And the curriculum be tricking them, them dollars I spend
Et le programme les trompe, ces dollars que je dépense
Got us learning about the heroes with the whitest of skin

Mieux encore, laissez-moi décider, salope, c'est 2018
Let me pick the things I'm funding from an app on my screen
Laissez-moi choisir les choses que je finance à partir d'une application sur mon écran
Better that than letting wack congressman I've never seen

Dictate where my money go, straight into the palms of some
Dicter où va mon argent, directement dans les mains de certains
Money-hungry company that make guns that circulate the country

Get spent hirin' some teachers that don't look like them
Sejam gastos contratando alguns professores que não se parecem com eles
And the curriculum be tricking them, them dollars I spend

Melhor ainda, deixe-me decidir, vadia, é 2018
Let me pick the things I'm funding from an app on my screen

I guess they say my dollars supposed to build roads and schools
Ich nehme an, sie sagen, mein Geld soll Straßen und Schulen bauen
But my niggas barely graduate, they ain't got the tools
Aber meine Niggas schaffen es kaum, sie haben nicht die Werkzeuge
Maybe 'cause the tax dollars that I make sure I send
Vielleicht, weil die Steuergelder, die ich sicher schicke
Get spent hirin' some teachers that don't look like them
Ausgegeben werden, um Lehrer einzustellen, die nicht wie sie aussehen
And the curriculum be tricking them, them dollars I spend

Let me pick the things I'm funding from an app on my screen
Lasst mich die Dinge auswählen, die ich von einer App auf meinem Bildschirm finanziere
Better that than letting wack congressman I've never seen
Besser das als zuzulassen, dass ein schlechter Kongressabgeordneter, den ich nie gesehen habe
Dictate where my money go, straight into the palms of some
Bestimmt, wohin mein Geld geht, direkt in die Hände von irgendeinem
Money-hungry company that make guns that circulate the country

And if it work for them, well shit, I'm cool with that

Maybe 'cause the tax dollars that I make sure I send
Forse perché i dollari delle tasse che mi assicuro di inviare
Get spent hirin' some teachers that don't look like them
Vengono spesi per assumere alcuni insegnanti che non assomigliano a loro
And the curriculum be tricking them, them dollars I spend

Meglio ancora, lasciatemi decidere, cagna, è il 2018
Let me pick the things I'm funding from an app on my screen
Lasciatemi scegliere le cose che sto finanziando da un'app sul mio schermo
Better that than letting wack congressman I've never seen
Meglio che lasciare che un deputato scadente che non ho mai visto
Dictate where my money go, straight into the palms of some
Decida dove vanno i miei soldi, direttamente nelle mani di qualche
Money-hungry company that make guns that circulate the country
Azienda avida di soldi che produce armi che circolano nel paese
And then wind up in my hood, making bloody clothes
E poi finiscono nel mio quartiere, facendo vestiti insanguinati
Stray bullet hit a young boy with a snotty nose
