This is complex Take this all into context This the truth and law, this my coup de grace But honestly this a calm flex This is Ice T meets Sophocles On 808s spitting isosceles They wanna keep me under lock and key Until I peel off without dropping tea Tryna get out, I'm deep in ya conscience Truth that I Tell tryna penetrate the nonsense This right here, ain't learned in no college School of hard knocks, graduated with honors Prayers from my mama, daddy showed the ropes Streets taught me sense, Jesus showed me hope Now I campaign telling y'all we need change Until you know we can like Obama with the votes This right here is years of fine crafting Patience, purpose, tears for my passion This tailor made to increase what I'm slacking This right here from God so stop asking This is what I know, this is what I believe This is my experience, this is what I've seen This kept me up at night, yeah this is what I dream And I do it for the people, and do it for the King Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Got my own thoughts, got my own voice, got my own path where I need to be Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Long as God's in control, ima speak from my soul, you can hate all you want but if you feel me let's go! Don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin' Don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin' Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Got my own thoughts, got my own voice, got my own path where I need to be Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Long as God's in control, ima speak from my soul, you can hate all you want but if you feel me let's go Look at this nonsense We live in a time when everyone feels they're politically conscious Morale is low cuz the morals we thought that we had, man we lost it Politicians obnoxious, but they feeling they God sent, but ain't answered no problems, so who gonna solve em Be clear, this ain't conservative or liberal Neither one of them can define how I live so Better know the rules, they affect how we live though I'm raising up the bar while y'all living in limbo Ancestors died give a chance for our life Generations later still demanding our rights The scales ain't equal, 'cause the people live evil, words spelled backwards describing our plight We Still need lawyers, lobbyists and activists Politicians, judges, tell us what we're stacked against Educated people, enlighten us where we're lacking sense A unified cause, so everyone knows the practices I want you to remember, when you're gone til November You think it's all sweet like Splenda While you got plans for your alternate agendas That I'm my brother's keeper, right before I end ya Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Got my own thoughts, got my own voice, got my own path where I need to be Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Long as God's in control, ima speak from my soul, you can hate all you want but if you feel me let's go! Don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin' Don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin', don't say nothin' Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Got my own thoughts, got my own voice, got my own path where I need to be Don't speak for me, real talk don't speak for me Long as God's in control, ima speak from my soul, you can hate all you want but if you feel me let's go Young black dapper divine It's some thoughts that's been plaguing my mind As we kneel by the sand and we drawing the lines Whose bloody hands threw the rocks that they hide? All of these years they've been blocking progression But float in our tears as they make their confession Evangelicals, living heretical The love that you lack ima call into question Oh y'all woke and black now? Guess you tired of the background? But Since we all back on track now I got a message for you: don't back down Voice of the abused and black towns Who were poached for conferences & pack crowds Who was told that their homes were never that sound When you challenge they norms, now you act proud? But I was made in God's image, but so was every slave in the kitchen Every civil leader on a mission, you see how we living? Change ya point of view to see the vision The sum of all fears brings division A passion of Christ means a passion for life Equality across, because we all passed the price Before you ever say what I need to be Look ya self in the mirror don't speak for me
