He said that lyric was to remind people that if you are a person of color, "you have to be accurate." He continued by saying Trayvon could have been any of his people and he says he wants people "to stay alert and never miss your target...whatever that target may be...getting out the hood, providing for family." Even still, Ross may need to choose his words a little better.
