Tryna teach you a lesson I'm still teaching myself
It's like sitting at the table you don't know what you been dealt
I feel im 52 I don played the hand with the man
But you just the joker I'm the king know where you stand
Steady playing games I been on the sideline
Friday night lights yea it's my time to shine
Pick up the remote cause this life is on demand
Still flipping through these channels to see where I began
Pop goes the gun and we start the next race
This race that we living and we still ain't found our place
This place that we live in they just wanna do us wrong
And it's gonna be all wrong until our people are gone
Tell me sum new
All I see is blue
All they wanna do
Is beat me like a fool
Thud after thud til our faces is red
Til i'm layin in blood and my body is dead
They try to fill up our head wit all these lies and all theses games
But they still ain't found a cure for all this misery and pain
While I'm working for the man
While we workin on a plan
Feel like Tom and Jerry all we say is catch me if you can
Til we winning and we chillin and we got the upper hand
They steady chasing and debating and they takin all our brands
But look and we back it's just popular demand
And imma keep on grinding til it's me that got all the fans
It's like Elon testing Tesla's
All they wanna do is test us
And we still ain't got no answers so we still just out here guessing
Got us stressing for a lesson it's deja vu
Got my number 2 and scantron don't know what to do
Living black in America a daily strife
Fighting for justice yea it's the story of life
From the roots of oppression we gon rise with might
Still gon face challenges every day and night
I can't walk right out my door without them asking for more
I can't walk back in the door I might cause an uproar
Can you see my ID when I tell you it's me
It just go right past they eyes it's the color they see
Working 9-5 we just tryin to survive
Got us walking the line we steady takin the fines
They say the past is behind they must be thinking we blind
So just open up yo eyes so you can see who's outlined
In the land of the free where the dreams should soar
For my black brothers and sisters its just a constant war
Look we born into a system that's stacked against their race
Struggle of living black in America that we gotta face
In the streets we walk with targets on our backs
Systemic biases they try to hold us back
The use the color of our skin to justify they attacks
You better bet we won't be silenced counter every act
But still the struggle's real inequality's concealed
From streets to courtrooms the biases will be revealed
Walking on a tightrope in a system that's flawed
Searching for justice everyday until we aint the outlaws
Through art, through music, we raising our voice
A powerful message and for that we should rejoice
Shattering stereotypes its bought time we redefine
The strength and the beauty of our beautiful black design
We more than a statistic or a stereotype
Our talents are so boundless and our soulful spirit ignites
We break through every chain and let our dreams take flight
In the face of adversity you always see we shine bright
We steady saying that we can't talk it no more
But you don't see us out here quitting we not layin on the floor
This a battle that we fighting and it ain't just begin
We gon keep on doin us til we win in the end
