It's all starting to make sense this will never have a ending Ouh we looking like a riot please don't make us get violent This what they want black on black deaths every day This what they want they want to lock us up or put us in a grave This what they want they want to beat us down bad like a slave This what they want it's time for a change This what we want we want our 40 acres don't forget amule This what we want better education with some better schools This what we want better pay better neighborhoods too This what we want equality treat us just like you Question how you kill someone who didn't have a weapon No second-guessing because of our skin complexion He left his knee on his neck and we can't stand it He shot Jordan because he had his music whamming He shot Trayvon he had a juice and some candy Sandra Bland rest in peace we know what happened They shot Ahmaud he was jogging just being active But we wrong for any type of reaction We fed up its going down ain't no let up You must've forgot you bleed and ain't talking bout ketchup This world ain't getting no better Our life feel like a setup it's been a long time It started with our ancestors and I ain't rapping I'm just stating facts I know they hate me Cus I'm blessed and black Dead serious like a heart attack eye for an eye money won't bring them back This what they want black on black deaths every day This what they want they want to lock us up or put us in a grave This what they want they want to beat us down bad like a slave This what they want it's time for a change This what we want we want our 40 acres don't forget amule This what we want better education with some better schools This what we want better pay better neighborhoods too This what we want equality treat us just like you We need some answers like why Brianna Taylor she would've been 27 Eric Gardner couldn't breathe they choked that man all on camera Mike Brown had graduated hoping to go to vatterott Remember Juneteenth this a history lesson If this the land of the free why we trapped up in they system We know all lives matter but blacks get treated different We always been the victim and everybody a witness They committing hate crimes but we the ones convicted Better give us our respect if not then we gone get it Trump in that white house tweeting like every minute Beefing with other countries just to get some attention It's a war on poverty but his bank account full of billions Fighting for our rights for the sake of our children Rest in peace to black people that died to cop killings You'll never be forgotten thank you for every lyric This beat really alive I know you can feel they spirits This what they want black on black deaths every day This what they want they want to lock us up or put us in a grave This what they want they want to beat us down bad like a slave This what they want it's time for a change This what we want we want our 40 acres don't forget amule This what we want better education with some better schools This what we want better pay better neighborhoods too This what we want equality treat us just like you
