Spalding

Niggas are playing basketball

Standing tall in public stalls

Of exploitation

Led by NBA commissioners

Positions allow players

To point guard layers

Of paychecks

That scream:

Run nigger, run!"

Don't stand under the forward sun

'Cuz you'll get blacker

And blacker only means

You'll run up and down the court more.


Don't forget your athletic chores

Score at least 15 points per game

In order to claim the bodies of your groupies

For you are a trophy Black star

And in this arena your tar

Is

Accepted

Expected

Respected
