jovan - progression of our people lyrics
[hook: jovan]
things don’t change if you still remain the same
most of us are still in this slave mind state
when you think, about it, think about it
things unchanged if you really think about it
how can we change if we stay in our lane?
talk is really cheap, especially in this day in age
if you think, about it, think about it
things unchanged, unchanged
[verse 1: jovan]
without a doubt, i feel like blacks [are] the only ones without
love & hugs, they give us drugs, it feels like it’s a drought
the most, unloved in history, wanted in penitentiaries
judging upon our imageries, culture’s famous in industries
exploitation, corporations, monetizing our monopolies
we’re always the anomalies, you’re k!lling our society
but are we hurting ourselves? putting us on shelves
to be so, so sold out, tell me, are we loving ourselves?
we’re screaming “hands up” and “don’t shoot” and “i can’t breathe”
yet exchanging blows for views online, what to believe?
i see we making moves, and paying dues, for our communities
standing up against the bigotry/police brutality
i’m seeing a lot of things not living up to it’s worth
there’s many pieces to the puzzle of black ‘merica’s hurt
don’t hate me off this verse, i’m not cursed, i’m figuring out
what our purpose really is, so we can come in large amounts, but…
hook
things won’t change if you still remain the same
talk is really cheap, especially in this day in age
when you think, about it, think about it
things unchanged if you really think about it. yo!
how can we change if we stayed in our lane?
most us are still in this slave mind state
if you think, about it, think about it
things unchanged, unchanged
[verse 2: jovan]
un-phased, unchanged
we’re still stuck and it sucks, we’re still chained…
create a book, write brand new page
clean up the slate that all creates, no execrate
we need to dominate and namaste, never fear, don’t be afraid
do it for our youth, because they’ll be the voice of our truth
unchanged is what the mainstream sees
in our nation here and across the coast of the overseas
i shed tears for my loved ones, who stayed home instead
and those who who cannot cry, but have continually bled
from being out the streets that are blacker than we are
and we are stars in case you couldn’t see that far
we’re depths of melanin, that seeps into our skeleton
so sad if you cannot see our history as relevant
who are you, your friends, your kin and your folks
that’s thinking we’re a joke, i could care less if you choke
i know we’re monied down and still racially broke
and so please, follow my quotes if you’re my friend or my foe, so…
[bridge: jovan]
let me get soul clap, for sandra bland and oscar grant
tyshawn and the other ones, say their names, let’s get ‘er done
i’m saying all of this because it’s coming from the heart it’s true
i know that this ain’t nothing new, it’s time to bring our life anew
on these city streets, and just do what you do best
fit the puzzle: teaching, preaching, leading, or protest
but
things don’t change if you still remain the same
most us are still in this slave mind state
when you think, about it, think about it
things unchanged if you really think about it
don’t try to fit the trend because it’s on the internet
connect with individuals, let’s try to intersect
let us think about it, think about it… think about it… think about it
they tell us zip our lips, then they say to get a grip
when you were whipping us on ships, we still continued to resist
we still exist, we exist, we are more than people here to just exist
live in peace, remain to change exist
raise a fist in the air instead of through a ligament
lets open up our fist, shake a hand and be a gift
to thy neighbor, do favor, complete the list
but until then: things will be unchanged, things will be unchanged, things will be unchanged, things will be unchanged…
