bronson’s beats & ro-b. z. - be heard or die trying (full version) lyrics
[intro: ro_b. z.]
i remember closing my eyes to the plight of our colored brothers and sisters, thinking that it was all a lie
that the reports of police brutality that i was hearing was something the media falsified
but now i know where the truth lies
i have seen it now with my own eyes
and i think it’s time to state my mind
‘lest i see america fall into demise, ro_b. z.!
[verse 1: ro_b. z.]
how many people have to be at the end of a shot, before we realize wе need change?
how many families have to bе broken apart, before we realize it’s a rigged game?
how much more fighting do we have to endure?
how many more deaths do we have to ensure
before we take a stand and demand reform
from the people, our lives to protect, they swore?
frankly, i’ve never been at the wrong end of a gun
or had to run away from the law_ thank god for the opportunities he presented me
but when it’s one race that they target just because it’s their job
then i understand and support the protests that try to break the chains of history!
how many people gon’ die because of your ignorance?
how many people gon’ die because of your lies?
just because not every policeman is bigoted
doesn’t mean that the ones who are aren’t still inside!
it’s like they want to falsify our force to fight
and then divide and take the lives they do not like
and send them straight up to the divine
we will not stand these blatant lies, we will fight
and raise our voice up to the sky to be heard by every girl and guy
and we will gladly die while we try, if it means we will save our brethren’s lives
yeah, this the movement that martin luther and malcom x made to rise
that every race come together to unite
left and right, this ain’t no time to fight
our plight’s too strong to try and bite
’cause violence ain’t the answer, peace is
but without justice, our peace goes to pieces
and you cannot say that in this case, race does not matter
because, in truth, all lives matter only if black lives matter
i’m gone

[interlude 1: parker]
wat, huh, wat, wat
[verse 4: parker]
my b_tch is the baddest (wat, wat)
the city in madness (yes, sir)
my bro took a patek (wat, wat)
yeah, i’m smokin on magic (wat, wat)
yeah, my hand on my glock (wat), no
i cannot stop (no, sir)
shout out to the block, huh, yeah
y’all keeping it hot (woo, woo)
i can’t trust the cops, no
i’ve seen too much from them
they k!lled my brother, ’cause they knew he had drugs on him
so in the city, marching in
there ain’t no stopping them
f_ck jail, we’re locking them
put ’em in a box, coffin them
i make ’em sick, go cough on them
[verse 5: lanting]
i’m so fed up with all the feds uptown
making people scared when they protest, run ‘round
oink oink, motherf_cker, you sloppy_ass police force
protect like the marine corps, but everyday i see corpse
most things on the tv blown out of proportion, like c4
but on the news, there ain’t remorse
they playing it like a game, wii sports
trump bullsh_tting rednecks, more important news with the redskins
they never see what’s read next, they never hear all the fed sins
they never see all the bled deaths
open your eyes and ears, blind and deaf b_tch
on some helen keller, broke out celled_in k!ller
when you relish filler, making h_llish deals and i’m done
[verse 6: zymic]
racism is real, it ain’t fake dude, causes people to k!ll
i hate they lose their lives ’cause the color of their skin
‘cause of other people’s sins, then say it ain’t cruel
who are you to say this is cool?
we can’t play, gotta fix this soon
we can’t lose, we gotta make moves and fight it off, like jujitsu
we need to speak out, we need to speak loud
we need to keep speaking, can’t be just one shout
if we can’t end it now, we’ll speak til’ our sound
is heard, and we’ll end it from the north to the south
try to end it ’till the job is finished, and we stop the k!lling that the criminals and cops committing
gotta stop the villains for revenge of the lost civilians, but sadly there’s a process in it
[verse 7: yvng mully]
look its be heard or die trying
this for the ones fighting
corporations chastising and tryna capitalize on black lives
spending your tax dimes to pretend
that we’re up on the back 9 of this fight
got the hands up and fists tight
to say that y’all matter
but not doing anything to stop the pattern
i think i’d rather get my voice out than stand down
and right now its f_ck trump and f_ck biden and f_ck mcconnell and f_ck pelosi
im calling out 45, kobe
unloading what i got to say
in case we don’t see the next day
i don’t care if i lose my base
i don’t want those fans anyway
hate someone ‘cause of their race
thinking history’s erased
i’m done now, have a nice day
[verse 8: kxiba, control]
ok, we need to make rearrangements
a lot of changes, or it will just stay the same
this complication is not f_cking tame, it’s a dangerous lion roaring in our face
they’ve been dealing with stuff that i have never faced, and i never will, not even a taste
racial equality is what we chase, but white privilege is still present today
like, what the f_ck is that about?
when we scream and shout, yeah, about our many doubts in our current route
ain’t n0body do anything, just stories on ig accounts
i’mma speak for the uk, 23% less for a black man’s wage
and even if he gets straight a’s
white people get more, it’s a p_ss take, disgrace (just remember that)
[verse 9: control]
slave owners wrote on the constitution
turn off body cams, but the cops are shooting
when civil rights leaders were full of truth, they started treating their body like its bulletproof (f_ck)
mention the past and why you’re offended, a whole bunch of racists’ll try to defend it
even when they might go call for amendments, there’s still a lot more for you all to contend with (look)
check the 13th one, even that still needs a revision
it’s still legal to make you slaves as long as they’re able to leave you in prison
so come over here (yeah), plenty that cry
pretend they ain’t racist, ridiculous lies
paying attention to prisons they’re running, they still leave indigenous people to die

[verse 12: nathan harms]
what happened to justice? what happened to peace?
cops pulling their triggers cause that’s the routine
aren’t you mad when you see another cop drop a body in the middle of the street?
rest in peace to george and brianna taylor
take pistols off police involved in unnecessary k!llings
jacob blake will never walk again, cause y’all shot him
not based on actions, but on the color of his skin
i wonder honestly, the cognitivity required to be an active police
and is shooting unarmed men some sort of policy?
cause if so it needs to change
racism should’ve ended with the slaves
but 140 years later, we still waiting for the day
that everyone realizes blm the same as every race
i know i’ll never understand the true pain y’all face, but i still got your back
black lives matter so lets make a change today, hey
[verse 13: asymmetrix]
(in need of transcription)
[verse 14: k!llaboy]
we’ve had enough, this is our time, this our time
we should arise and let’s make a difference
just ‘cause i’m black, you shouldn’t find me suspicious
i’m tired of hearing these deaths
first it was george floyd, we don’t want to know who’s next
we all human, so we deserve respect
you wanna arrest me, ‘cause i pulled up in a benz
you wanna arrest me, ‘cause i look fresh
you wanna arrest me, ‘cause i got diamonds on my neck
you wanna arrest me, ’cause of my color
black lives matter!
[verse 15: that rapper mix, with ro_b. z.]
hands up n_gga, don’t shoot, we only doing what we supposed to
how many many massacres of my people do you expect us to go through?
see the cops dropping bodies on the tv, and we all act like it’s old news
they been doing this sh_t for some time, my father, his father before
if you ain’t got my skin then you prolly don’t know
policemen be goblins no willem dafoe
they use us for target practice, so don’t act like they don’t
kick that random sh_t up out the door
sick of the looks when i wear a durag
don’t give a f_ck what experience you had
i’m my own n_gga and i’m proud to be it
i want racism dead, i’ll probably be dead for i see it
this convo won’t ever end, do y’all know what racism is?
of course you do there’s no escaping it, you gotta squint your eyes to really take it in
if you don’t get it you part of the problem
if you don’t care then you causing the problem
all i know is with that being said
me having black skin ain’t the cause of the problem
my fist in the air one knee on the ground, all kaepernick wanted was change
i’m half white and half black, n_gga
i’m proof we no different we one in the same
i love all my sisters and brothers, we gotta do better
i’m f_cking sick of the destruction
i pray i’m alive to see the day where we finally sit down and we actually have a discussion, like
[verse 16: ro_b. z.]
it ain’t been 6 months since i recorded my first verse
and in all this time, i see no change
only more pain and more hurt
more red on the streets by the boys in blue
while the reds and blues lead our country like a bunch of fools
and no matter who is the president
it’s obvious we’re all doomed if we don’t fix this soon
these donkeys and elephants turned our country into a circus
and now they’re burning the tent down
and all of us stuck on the inside can only trample each other as we fight to get out
like, when did human lives become a political divide?
it shouldn’t be disputed that something isn’t right
so instead of b_tching about who is the president
maybe do something about the race war that’s inside
our own borders, ’cause we’re on the border
of having our own rwandan genocide
except so much worse, that we cannot let this fly
so, people of every color, unite!
the voice of the people makes the american might
call up your congressman, petition the government
so that, one day, we’ll finally make this right
and one more thing, don’t single a race out for being racist
’cause by that logic, every race is
why don’t we instead unite?
’cause division only fuels the actual racists
raise your fists, grab your signs
raise your voice up to the sky
don’t let n0body around you make you divided
and remember, it’s f_ck racism
we’ll be heard or die trying!
