Your guilt is real but its what you do with it
Don't you judge the people screaming
All my people living livid
What would you do if your little one was killed in broad day?
You would kick and you would scream till you made the mirrors break
But that wouldn't be enough
Something else has got to break 
But you see those guns and cuffs 
Saying "you can't scream today"
Saying "you can't grieve today"
Ain't no "try again tomorrow"
But your neighbors see it happen and say here's my voice to borrow
"Ima shout Ima scream ima lash out with you
Heres a megaphone cuz we the voice that will 
Not go against you"
Now you surrounded by mothers who all know the same pain
But you still won't hear your love call out your name
So we scream theirs saying

"Know we feel your pain...
Cuz it happened and it cant happen again..."

Its sunny LA days but all I see is rain...
Like boston overcast
Some of y'all know only sunny days so we'll make the gray last

Every day 
Another one of us is killed by your shooting
We traumatized 
Yet all you can comment on is the looting?
Your husband is a murderer, lady, what are you doing?
Your Karen is a is a killer my n- who are you screwing?

Check the people around you...
Cuz when they say some off shit
You can turn the tv off 
But this has no off switch
I know I know some people who talk off script when I dip
But if you check em bet they'll listen 
Cuz u don't look like this

Yeah it's awkward it's hard
But you can miss me with these 
Cuz what's difficult is being black
Protesting the police 
What's difficult's having to grieve
Face racism plus teach 
Cuz even though I got this skin
It doesn't educate me 

You wanna know what's difficult? 
Knowing I wrote this song
So motherfuck your anxiety 
Tell your mother she wrong
Tell your father he wrong 
Tell your brother he wrong 
Turn off Fox News 
Cuz all those fuckers are wrong 
They're teaching you to hate
While deciding your fate 
Pretend to be on your side 
But aren't all puppets fake?

Breonna 
Its hard to say it was just your birthday 
I shed tears for you
Shoulda lit a candle that day
Shoulda dropped down and prayed
But all I could do was cry
And put pen to the page
With fatigue in my eyes
At this point 
They'd better start switching up lullabies 
So it matches the world our kids will see when they arrive 
Like...

Hush little baby don't you cry...
Cuz you'll see the fire in my eyes 
And I promise we gon burn the world
Cuz they took our little boys and girls
