“Black Boy” is the second track on Drain Gang’s collaborative album D&G.
The song shows ECCO2K engaging in an inner dialogue and talking to himself. He is the “lil black boy” that he speaks of.
Perhaps he is talking to his younger self and trying to give younger Ecco some advice.
[Intro]
Hey lil' black boy
Hey lil' black boy
[Chorus]
Hey lil' black boy (Hey lil' black boy)
Dreads and makeup (Dreads and makeup)
Where'd your head go? (Where'd your head go?)
Wake yourself up (Wake yourself up)
Brave lil' black kid (Brave lil' black kid)
Braids and black ones (Braids and black ones)
Wasted, burned out (Wasted, burned out)
Chasing the sun (Chasing the sun)
[Verse]
No joke, this time, I'm really ghosting
Yeah, he's got Margielas but he's still posing
I woke up sober, now I'm J.K. Rowling
I'll wake up soulless one day, I just know it
I only have one heart and it's still broken
But if I give it to you would you hold it?
And if it went missing then would you notice?
And would you kiss me if I gave you roses?
Why are you afraid? Why are you afraid?
Wake up with no face, who am I today?
Why are you afraid? What are you afraid of?
Look the other way, uh, you're all the same
Don't let it escape (Don't let it escape)
You gotta kill that snake (You gotta kill that snake)
Feel like RS-68s (Like RS-68s)
Burn out and get wasted
[Chorus]
Hey lil' black boy (Hey lil' black boy)
Dreads and makeup (Dreads and makeup)
Where'd your head go? (Where'd your head go?)
Wake yourself up (Wake yourself up)
Brave lil' black kid (Brave lil' black kid)
Braids and black ones (Braids and black ones)
Wasted, burned out (Wasted, burned out)
Chasing the sun (Chasing the sun)
[Outro]
Hey lil' black boy
Where'd your head go?
Brave lil' black kid
Wasted, burned out
