What would you do lord if you was me I ain’t trying to be rude or disrespect you, I just need to know truthfully was born in it so sinning ain’t nothing new to me The world you made in the beginning ain’t what it used to be Sometimes I wonder if you’d understand If you was human and walked the shoes of a man That was confused with no choice to choose who commands And is either loose or played by the rules of the land Would you refuse the pressure or choose to withstand To later be stuck on a cross with screws in your hand I need to know just give me the jewels to the plan And I promise that i will spread the news to the fans That’s my brother my sister my neighbor That’s my family That’s my mama my teacher my father Black lives matter I know you picture me being a good guy But nowadays, the good guys in the hood die If good was justified, maybe I would try But then again, if I had wings I could fly That ain’t my reality Where I’m from every other day it’s a casualty In the slums where we can’t escape the mentality Of thinking that a mic or a basketball is the best way for a salary So actually the things that we dream is limited to just dreams Because reality is what we’re living in Yeah the schools try to show us how to be a citizen But history class teach you it’s all about the Benjamins The Lincoln’s and the Grants It’s hard to really make it when you thinking that you can’t Get over the hurdles of these racist to advance And take my people further cause we feel like we’re not equal That’s the reason that we chant That’s my brother my sister my neighbor That’s my family That’s my mama my teacher my father Black lives matter A yo these black lives matter But it seems like don’t nobody really care into a black life shatters Then the black minds gather Because we sick and tired of seeing the dead bodies of these black guys add up In our situation different Most of us don’t notice the condition that we live in Thinking that it’s normal to be sitting in a prison Or scared to take a knee or say that you can’t breathe Because nobody’s gonna listen No Kap If you ain’t in position to play, it’s no stats And if the truths hidden away, it’s no facts We need the youth vision to change today Because it’s no way to go back So it’s affirmative it’s time for some action Time to recognize the great minds of the black men And women that done sacrificed they lives for the black skin We just want real freedom, we’re tired of asking That’s my brother my sister my neighbor That’s my family That’s my mama my teacher my father Black lives matter
