Lupe Fiasco, Ayesha Jaco - Baba Says Cool for Thought lyrics

They thought it was cool to
Burn crosses in your front
Lawn as they hung you from
Trees in your backyard
They thought it was cool to
Leave you thirsty and stranded, katrina
He thought it was cool to carry a gun in
His classroom and open fire

Virginia Tech, Columbine, stop the violence
They thought it was cool to tear down the
Projects and put up million dollar condos
Gentrification they think it's cool to stand
On the block hiding
Product in their socks making
Quick dime bag dollars
They think it's cool to ride down on you
In blue and white and unmarked cars
Busting you upside your head freeze
'Cause the problem is we think it's cool too
Check your ingredients before you
Overdose on The Cool
