Do they care about the ones who have to struggle to survive
Just because I'm young and black I don't deserve to be alive
See there's a difference if you recognize you can't be colorblind
But see the color and respect it time to open up your eyes
Police playing with they guns and think our lives are just a toy
They tryna throw me on the pavement for no reason like I'm Floyd
They tryna keep me silent but I'm speaking loud I have a voice
And being racist ain't hereditary kids it's just a choice
If you had to watch your brothers fight for freedom you would see
How hard it is just for the ones that God has blessed with colored seed
They don't care how much we lift our voice they bash us through our pleas
And they don't stop until there's pools of blood or until we can't breathe
But we can't wait around and watch our nation die go to waste
In the books they say that everyone should live and have a place
I shouldn't be afraid to live my dream and one day be a great
We need to start it over once again and wipe out all the hate
I just wanna see a change
I just wanna see a change
I just wanna see a change
Do they care about the ones who have to struggle to survive
Just because I'm young and black I don't deserve to be alive
See there's a difference if you recognize you can't be colorblind
But see the color and respect it time to open up your eyes
Police playing with they guns and think our lives are just a toy
They tryna throw me on the pavement for no reason like I'm Floyd
They tryna keep me silent but I'm speaking loud I have a voice
And being racist ain't hereditary kids it's just a choice
If I steal a drink I get a double sentence no parole
But lil Timmy raped woman but they just gone let him go
It ain't ever fair so I just gotta ask em what's the goal
They just hate me cuz I'm colored gotta make it on my own
I know the picture always bigger the colors we divide
This to the ones that love their kids and stay around to help they're wives
But be strong my kings and queens and don't fall into all the lies
We gotta speak up for our colors so they can't destroy our grind
If I told you I was starving would you give me some to eat
If I asked you for a place to stay then would you let me sleep
If I was dying in the sun then would you get me out the heat
If I was hustling for money would you get me out the streets
Do they care about the ones who have to struggle to survive
Just because I'm young and black I don't deserve to be alive
See there's a difference if you recognize you can't be colorblind
But see the color and respect it time to open up your eyes
Police playing with they guns and think our lives are just a toy
They tryna throw me on the pavement for no reason like I'm Floyd
They tryna keep me silent but I'm speaking loud I have a voice
And being racist ain't hereditary kids it's just a choice
