I live in silence to understand the violence But I can't be quiet when I here police sirens Got a cross as a tat In memory of those who've passed Cuz in this life without god you will never last They got guns and knives that be taking our lives But bandanas in the reason why my people can't survive Jesus piece round my neck who gon be next A pray to the lord for my brothers he protect Claiming sets the war needs to stop God forbid I see another casket drop I see dead bodies all around me don't know what to do Another brother dead just seen it on the news Got my hand on the Bible don't pledge allegiance Just dodged another one of satans demons They say the devil attacks the people he fears Must be doing something right cuz I know he's near Now they wanna go to prison choose it over death But if it were up to me I'd rather take my last breath At least I'd I've the freedom to decide for myself Cuz dreams go to die in that cell So if I get gunned down so be it Cuz my life's short lived I can see it This morning woke up to gun shots police sirens Glance out my window see family crying Murdered in cold blood left in the street Sometimes I think what if it was me Left for dead over colored rags They retaliate leaving body bags It's a never ending cycle when will they learn That we living in hell cuz yea bullets Burn Communities run down over different clicks This is no way to raise your kids All they learn is hatred flipping the pages Obituaries filled all different ages Young and old or big and small But the gun fire will smoke them all Work your whole life and for what Eventually we'll all see our casket shut Mothers are crying while our brothers are dying Face down in the gutter bodies are lying Multiplying graves get dug quick This never ending cycle makes me sick Tossing and turning getting no rest It's kinda like we're playing political chess Ones sides helpless needing assistance But the tax money is going to building more prisons Civil unrest where Is the justice It feels like we're crippled they're kicking our crutches Out from under us divided we fall But United we stand so I ask how tall The chalk lines fade as it's pouring rain The people are grieving no one knows their pain Hatred being tossed in every direction After every altercation think they'd learn their lesson Brutalized and beaten murdered on live Again I ask how my people gonna survive When their exposed they try to play the victim They get off easy that's just the system When will it change when will it end All this hatred leaving people dead Governments failed is what else is new How many times do we have to ask you I say put down the pistols and pick up your brother Only way to make change it amongst one another This my protests this my message Take a second to listen to what I suggested It only takes one to get things going I've started it now no plan on slowing
