Shaun King, Lee Merritt
John Boyega 
This is for you
And every other activist fighting for us 
Thank you 
For everything you've done for us 
This shit crazy 
Daniel Sara on the beat 
So he packing heat

Traumatized in my mind 
I been tryna keep quiet
Don't like to talk about my feelings
Rather sit back and hide it 
I been on a mental roller coaster 
Doing things that I ain't supposed to 
Momma in the kitchen 
Daddy at work
Tryna find my living 
Get my meaning from this Earth 

Not suicidal 
But I'm on the ledge
Tryna climb back up
But I'm on the edge 
Too many twisted thoughts
Twisting my head
Ain't got too much pride
To be admitting that 
I'm hesitant to go outside 
Without a clip & a half 
If the cops run up
Best believe, I'm blocking that
My Souljas in them bushes 
Them choppers spitting fast
I don't give a f*ck
Who got a problem
We gone live at last
My revolver it'll solve it 
If a bitch mad 
Say it proud
Without that badge
You a bitch a half 
MLK yelled
Free at last, free at least 
But in certain ways, I feel like
We were freer in the past
Too much Social unrest
And I'm getting mad
The government a mess 
And the police force
They been bad
Stay being mad 
Cause we stay being Black
That melanin, they can't imitate it
So they just hate it instead, yeah  

It's crazy how a knee from Kap
Can cause a movement ahead
But a knee for Big Floyd 
Meant being smothered instead
New Black panther
Yeah, I'm digging the pack
I'm ready for war, it's whatever
Me & Souljas getting strapped 
Set the cities on fire 
We bout to riot
I got a passion it's ignited
This injustice, we bout fight it
F*ck non-violence

No justice, no peace 
Can't put my mind at ease 
It's NWA
F*ck tha police

Traumatized in my mind 
I been tryna keep quiet
Don't like to talk about my feelings
Rather sit back and hide it 
I been on a mental roller coaster 
Doing things that I ain't supposed to 
Momma in the kitchen 
Daddy at work
Tryna find my living 
Get my meaning from this Earth 

You can ignore all of our cries 
If you wanna 
But them protests won't stop 
Till we restore our honor
Your honor
I'm fighting for every Black momma 
And every black father 
For Ahmaud, Floyd, Breauna
And everyone else 
Who lost they life 
Or experienced trauma
At the hands of the police force 
Or racist white men
Who still don't wanna 
Get off they lazy ass
And get over way back when 
How you let another race 
Build your nation
And then don't even 
Have the nerve to be grateful
Y'all weak, and some haters 
Give me my mule
And my forty acres 
I'm spreading positivity
Repping Black Privilege
Like Oren Major
We need reparations
But we ain't waiting
I'm pulling up to a riot
With my 40 quaking 
Busting glocks, busting shots  
At 40 haters 
Your honor
We only ask for due diligence 
And legit Civil Rights
Cause y'all ain't proving it yet 
Y'all talk about change 
But y'all ain't really doing it yet
So, give it to us 
Or we gone take it
I don't give a f*ck  
How you take it 
Our destinies 
Are what we make em 
Yeah, we got potential to be greater 
But at every turn and every angle 
They try to underestimate us

It's crazy how a knee from Kap
Can cause a movement ahead
But a knee for Big Floyd 
Meant being smothered instead
New Black panther
Yeah, I'm digging the pack
I'm ready for war, it's whatever
Me & Souljas getting strapped 
Set the cities on fire 
We bout to riot
I got a passion it's ignited
This injustice, we bout fight it
F*ck non-violence

No justice, no peace 
Can't put my mind at ease 
It's NWA
F*ck tha police

Traumatized in my mind 
I been tryna keep quiet
Don't like to talk about my feelings
Rather sit back and hide it 
I been on a mental roller coaster 
Doing things that I ain't supposed to 
Momma in the kitchen 
Daddy at work
Tryna find my living 
Get my meaning from this Earth
