Dressed like I'm finna rob a liquor sto' All black, black skin With my hoodie on Unshaven Edge up is nearly gone You wouldn't even think that I teach at Vaughn Middle school Dressed like a criminal Living smooth But I look like a twisted screw Because society assumes Based on visions shown If it ain't what we expect Then it is wrong Guilty, 'Till proven otherwise If I had OJ's lawyers I'd get away with crime But I don't So my innocence is ever left to die I never broke a law But I'd probably be facing life, uh There's more to me than my hue Than my hue I try to act civilized But they don't understand my view I don't act black Nor do I even act like you I'm an anomaly standing alone In the middle of the room Ooohhh We don't wanna hear ya We already seen enough You don't have to say a word We already know what's up Ooohhh Go ahead and get outta here, here We don't even want you here So keep your mouth closed Uh Got me afraid to share my faith Wait I mean they try to make me hide 'em Say put him away Rap about Jesus You'll never meet the fame You'll never make any money Don't get into this game This game will eat you alive No one will even hear You're imperfect But your Christians try to condemn You can try to sell a mill But your chances are slim Why don't you be like Fred Hammond or the rest of them I'm driven by purpose But hindered by worthless forces Trying to put me in a box Tryna shift my course, its Preposterous for me to change what I believe To listen to people Who ain't on the same level as me, uh I can rap in a church And turn rap into worship To glorify Jesus Who came to this planet to purge it But before I open my mouth They laughing at me My words can save 'em But their prejudice Happens to sing Ooohhh We don't wanna hear ya We already seen enough You don't have to say a word We already know what's up Ooohhh Go ahead and get outta here, here We don't even want you here So keep your mouth closed Uh I'll never please anyone But luckily I don't wanna please none of yall Seeking validation Is how you get caught It's how you lose yourself In opinions of who you are By other people Who ain't supporting you They're hating everything you do Because they're nothing too Killing dreamers They gotta gun like their gonna shoot They making noise, but they're false A Donald trumpet toon So I'm never hesitant Words are irrelevant To where I'm going So I'm rejecting them Every haiku, parable Paragraph which is spent To discourage me It's a waste of your money Take back your cents, uh I'm sharing this for the dreamers Open up your eyes Understand the deceivers From the mentors Who try to lead you to the distant season You'll benefit from saying shut up To all those who don't believe ya Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Shut ya mouth Ooohhh We don't wanna hear ya We already seen enough You don't have to say a word We already know what's up Ooohhh Go ahead and get outta here, here We don't even want you here So keep your mouth closed
