Black
Dave
The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice
And if he's white you give him a chance
He's ill and confused
If he's black he's probably armed
You see him and shoot
Look, black is growin' up around the barbershop

Meaning
Dave flips "the blacker the berry" into a line about media bias. A Black killer makes the tragedy feel more clickable, while whiteness gets softened into excuses like illness or confusion.

public sympathy
Scoring engine
Pen game, measured.
Repeatable technical metrics per track — not vibes. Rhyme schemes, vocabulary, and flow, quantified into one score.
Every metric is computed from the lyric sheet itself, then weighted into the overall score — same track, same score, every time.
