[Verse 1]

Picture them tattered beige bricks decorating my turf

Where cops raid shit then accumulate the work

Where I learned to blaze tracks like Rasta’s high grade

Learned bout racial profiling at a young age

Posted on my block like them transit signs

Bwoy dem took me down like that a France airline

Locked in they confines unlawful interrogation

I fit the profile of a young black Jamaican

I’m Bajan but they claiming I rob Asian stores

Like you stole this merchandise here and more

Threw it in my face talking bout pick that shit up

Yo you think I’m stupid dawg you shut out of luck

Cuz if I pick that shit up then I’m dumb as fuck

My finger prints be on it and you got me stuck

Me being smart made them pussies more vex

So you dun know the flex, the beatings they came next cuz they...

[Chorus]

You profiling analyzing me

Black so I guess I had to

The criminal that you saw in me

I ain’t your scapegoat so I hope you see

You profiling analyzing me

Black so I guess I had to

The criminal that you saw in me

I ain’t your scapegoat so I hope you see

[Verse 2]

Them charges were dropped insufficient evidence

While popular culture reinforced the relevance

Of their stereotypical ideas and views

Since 32 shootings were reported news

Now all hood residents got criminal nature

Yah, like all white guys fit the profile raper

Or BTK, you know that bind torture and kill

Please criminals manipulate this shit with skills

Playing your stereotypes like a minstrel show

Performing their game and steady earning they flow

But poverty is to blame you dun know the culprit

You on the take loving to mould and sculpt it

Corrupt like Chow Yung Fat on your silver screens

Niggas dying over over green and your income streams

You living in the burbs wife and 2.5 kids

Working in the hood citing 2.5 bids

[Chorus]

You profiling analyzing me

Black so I guess I had to

The criminal that you saw in me

I ain’t your scapegoat so I hope you see

You profiling analyzing me

Black so I guess I had to

The criminal that you saw in me

I ain’t your scapegoat so I hope you see

Profiling...
