I know I'm not the only one
Na I'm not the only one
Ya'll see it too
Ya you see it
It's right there
Right in front of your face
Wasssup
It's going on right around the corner
Next to you
And you
Out of sight is out of mind
They don't hear you when you blind
Is there really sun if you ain't never see it shine?
I’m not caught up on the news man it gives me the blues
Scrolling on my timeline has got me slightly confused
Why we laying down crosses cause we went for a walk?
Instead of racin' for a second
You shoulda put it in park
We are already locked up
Yet we're building more compartments
We're living in a cell
And they look like our apartments
A doc committed suicide the same day that Kobe died
Curing other people
Led to goodbye
A pandemic in itself
Mental health is on the rise
Obsessed with social media
To filter lies
Every day like clockwork he get a coffee from Dunks
Needed a nice hot shower he ain’t offering much
They’re not billboards picking signs for poor
On every intersection, underpass and store
Painted black face
Just to boost your reputation
She seemed illiterate
Couldn't read the situation
2020 our people are still concerned
Will we make it to 18
Without a casket or a urn
Only time we take a knee
Is when we need to breathe
Or to stand up to oppression
You don't like it when we
Use our platforms
I'm calling all Kaepernicks
An end to slavery
They gone put an asterisk
I know my rights as their explained
But the logic isn't plain
All I see is chains
When you tell me to refrain
From using my voice
When I say I couldn't breathe
Breaking in my house
When I'm asking you to leave
Man I know it's heavy
Just imagine how we feel
Dose of you own medicine
Prescribe a refill
We heal
But the scars are here forever
What I'm seeing around the corner
Isn't getting any better
Yeah we gotta make that change
Focus the energy in your brain
Numb the soul like Novocain
MLK rolling in his grave
We work on being better
But the better been a stressor
It seem we work and work
But you still playing the oppressor
Since 1865
We been viewed as the aggressor
And it go way back before that
The evil don’t get lesser
Keep it real
Keep it honest (Ya)
Keep it confident but modest
Why you reply All
When we say black
Is beyond us
I can see the future like Nostradamus
And we better check before we wreck
Cause I’ll be damned if you kneel on my sons neck
Try me, You gon catch 7 in the back
You ain’t gon be able to breathe
How 'bout that?
