You’ve named me victim It's in the skin Mind my business Holding up my casket If we could see hearts Then what's black now Don’t that make you a racist to yourself now Is skin The only thing that tells me apart From the world that we live in Lock yourself up With the brothers that you’ve enjailed Now you know the life of a black male Wait If his heart pure gold Must he comply to the orders of a man who told Hands up! F*ck that! Gunshots to the back I can’t breathe I’m under attack Save me Who can save me It’s a white man's world and I’m just tryna eat Love me for me and my heart But you idol me as a prize to be won Am I a fetish or a criminal Mocked or invisible Now your mind is cynical This ain’t even biblical Safe to say This a life that ain’t livable Ain’t gonna see the beauty of the world through those eyes Have you listened to the laws it’s a devil in disguise But you Call me friend Still degrade me Call me equal Still wanna pain me This beyond common sense Silence is the word That keeps you on the fence Ain’t a game Speak up Hearts gotta change Rise up This beyond common sense Silence is the word That keeps you on the fence Ain’t a game Speak up Hearts gotta change Rise up This beyond common sense Silence is the word That keeps you on the fence Ain’t a game Speak up Hearts gotta change Rise up Save me Who can save me Save me Who can save me Save me Who can save me Save me Who can save me Ain’t a game Speak up Hearts gotta change Rise up
