I was in DR for a week You know I'm vibing with my people, you know what I'm saying Good to see my people everywhere The last day, I heard what happen back in the states This how I felt Hopped off the plane in ATL, I'm feeling racist This ain't me, I'm thinking weird I gotta change this When I see their skin I can't help it bro I just think of him All of my oppressor's suppressors pointing at melanin But when he dropped the gun they arrest and call him a gentleman This the work of the devil, the government the middleman Cops killing us for sport but the prisons they ain't gone let 'em in Try to play us like we stupid cause they scared of our intelligence Now they claiming mental illness and they give 'em all the doubt Let my brother get pulled over, boy I bet they try to choke em out My people get blicked in the back because they running Cops confused a phone for a gat now ain't that something They killed another man cause he's black, they felt like hunting Guess it was open season for the buffalos Killed us like we animals or cattle they ain't gone stop us though Feel like they infinity and 0 but if you ask me then is time to up the score I'm reaching for the grip I'm bout to dump the clip But right before I blast I get to thinking bout his kids And that's just what it is He living in his sins And if I let it off then imma be a hypocrite Hopped off the plane in ATL, I'm feeling racist This ain't me, I'm thinking weird I gotta change this When I see their skin I can't help it bro I just think of him All of my oppressor's suppressors pointing at melanin I held my tongue for too long in fear of getting crucified But when it's hitting close to home I had no choice but choose a side It's blind leading the blind, but it ain't hard to see Hatred filled within their hearts because my skin is rooted deep(uh) The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice We've been taught white lies cause they can't handle our truth Now can you dig it, walking round in shackles but you free It's crazy looking at the news thinking that could be me Sheesh Looking over my shoulder, the world is getting colder And as I'm getting older, this happens over and over and over We asking for some change but it don't make sense We get life for nothing, they get a slap on the wrist I'm pissed Cause how I'm supposed to raise a seed of my own In the land of the free but it ain't safe outside your home A couple bad apples made the batch look like it's rotten Try to make us not remember something that can't be forgotten I gotta love thy neighbor, I always show respect Even when they talking crazy out the side of they neck I'm not saying they're the same or just assume they're like the rest But I know I feel the tension when they see me as a threat, and that's a bet Hopped off the plane in ATL, I'm feeling racist This ain't me, I'm thinking weird I gotta change this When I see their skin I can't help it bro I just think of him All of my oppressor's suppressors pointing at melanin Tsk crazy
