Песня: Endangered Species (Tales from the Darkside)
At the bottom of our news tonight, there's been a new animal aimed at falling off the face of our Earth. Yes, young black teenagers are reported to be the oldest, and the newest, creatures added to the Endangered Species List. As of now, no efforts have been made to preserve the blacks. When asked why, a top top law official adds, 'Because they make good game.'

A young nigga got it bad ‘cause I'm brown!

[Verse 1: Ice Cube]
Peace!? don't make me laugh!
All I hear is mothafuckas rappin' succotash,
Livin' large, tellin' me to get out the gang,
I'm a nigga, gotta live by the trigger,
How the fuck do you figure
That I can say peace and the gunshots will cease?!
Every cop killer goes ignored,
They just send another nigga to the morgue!
A point scored, they could give a fuck about us,
They rather catch us with guns and white powder!
If I was old, they'd probably be a friend of me,
Since I'm young, they consider me the enemy!
They kill ten of me to get the job correct
To serve, protect, and break a niggas neck!
‘Cause I'm the one with the trunk of funk
And 'Fuck tha Police' in the tape deck,
You should listen to me ‘cause there's more to see,
Call my neighborhood a ghetto ‘cause it houses minorities,
The other color don't know you can run but not hide,
These are tales from the darkside!

All of us are endangered, damn!
A young nigga got it bad ‘cause I'm brown!
A young nigga got it bad ‘cause I'm brown!

[Verse 2: Ice Cube]
You wanna free Africa, I stare at ya,
‘Cause we ain't got it too good in America,
I can't fuck with them overseas,
My homeboy died over a key of cocaine.
It was plain and simple,
The 9mm went bang to the temple,
Bang-bang was the sound I put the bitch down,
And ran to the schoolyard bathroom,
Looked in the trash can, yo, it had room,
So I ducked my ass in it for a minute!
Covered with trash I had to lay back
Mad as fuck!
Thinkin' about the payback,
Tonight the crew gonna have a little fun,
I went home and cut the barrel of my shotgun.
It's gettin' critical, I stole a 5.0,
I let it go, drive real slow,
I yelled out, 'Ice Cube sucka!'
The shotgun kicked, and it murdered mothafuckas!
I told you last album
When I got a sawed off, bodies are hauled off.
It's a shame, that niggas die young,
But to the lightside it don't matter none,
It'll be a drive-by homicide,
But to me it's just another tale from the darkside!

[Verse 3: Chuck D]
Standin' in the middle of war,
In the middle we flex,
When we die, we won't make Jet,
Ebony can't see to the lightside.
The term they apply to us is a nigga,
Call it what you want, ‘cause I'm comin' from the corner,
Same applies with a Ph.D.
Who's black – don't wanna roll – sells his soul,
Watch his head go rollin',
Who the fuck are they foolin'?
Nobody knows, but I suppose the color of my clothes
Matches the color of the one on my face,
As they wonder what's under my waist.
Standin' on the verge of them gettin' brown,
That's a fact,
Got a fear of the bozack.
Run, run, run their ass off, they can not hide,
Yet, Cube, they can't fuck with the
Darkside!

Виды под угрозой вымирания (Истории с тёмной стороны)

И в завершение нашего выпуска новостей: новое животное скоро исчезнет с лица Земли. Да, чёрные подростки стали старейшим и, в то же время, самым новым животным, добавленным в Красную книгу. На данный момент не предпринимается никаких попыток сохранить популяцию чёрнокожих. На вопрос "почему", высокопоставленное официальное лицо из силовых структур завило: "Потому что с ними весело играть".

У молодого ниггера всё плохо, потому что я коричневый!

[Куплет 1: Ice Cube]
Мир?! Не смешите меня,
Я слышу только, как дебилы читают рэп-мешанину,
Живут на широкую ногу, они велят мне проваливать из группы,..... [открыть перевод]
