micah bournes – too much? كلمات اغاني

[verse 1]
forever feel like we on a treadmill
sweatin’ buckets runnin’ hard but stuck in the same spot
my god we been faithful in squalor and grief
such a miracle our people’s stubborn hope and belief
they murder us in the street
they murder us in the pew
we show you the way of jesus
forgivin’ you dylan roofs
but still so many treat us like a stereotype
y’all don’t wanna see the truth
it could cost you ya life
or maybe just your position
a stain on your reputation
a smidget of inconvenience
but really only your privilege
it’s like they so afraid of power equality
but we don’t want revenge, we only wanna be free
ain’t tryin’ to rape your daughters or throw your sons into prison
don’t want your babies trapped in the ghetto and malnutritioned
don’t want you to feel ugly for bein’ a different color
and neither do we want it for our sistas and our brothas

[chorus]
no we ain’t never marched for diamonds
and never would demand your love
just the air to breathe
the sp-ce to be
equality, is that too much?
no we ain’t never marched for diamonds
and never would demand your love
just the air to breathe
the sp-ce to be
equality, is that too much to want
is that too much to want?
is that too much to want?
is that too much
that too much
is that too much to want?

[verse 2]
they call us lazy now
just like the m-ssa back in the day
and promise fewer beatings if we cower and obey
ain’t tryin’ to get promoted from field to house slave
i wanna get out wit’ moses on dat underground train
done lost my way if i rise to the top of an exploitive
system unjust and corrupt
i seen what american dreamin’ do to ya soul
don’t let me be sedated by the power and the gold
too many revolutionaries make a little dough
then forget all of the people they was advocatin’ fo’
i’m livin’ in the kingdom where meek run the show
great clean the feet of the weak and the po’
i swear we never wanted what you think we comin’ fo’
we see it isn’t workin’ so we take another road

[bridge]
to be silent in an age of corruption
is to be violent towards those the system is stacked against
to be silent in an age of corruption is to be violent against myself
which is somethin’ i will not do
i will be disruptive
i am not too loud
i am not too angry
i am not too black
i don’t want too much
i am not too much
i am not too much
i am not too much

[verse 3]
my people be feisty
don’t tell us to ask nicely
only demandin’ what belongs to us rightly
many whites be frontin’ like they want peace
but they just want us quiet when we murdered by police
what if we handled beef like our commander in chief
droppin’ tomahawk missiles on lapd
sent some revolutionaries to invade dc
k!ll a corrupt king with his entire regime
then counted all their babies as civilian casualties
tell their widows that we did it in the name of peace
you only make war wit’ big bombs and guns
if you livin’ by the sword you gon’ die by one
you don’t gotta get deployed if you poc
everybody from the hood got ptsd
every color folk ever been the sole
representative in a cl-ssroom
at a church, at our binesses
we know how to flip a warzone to a feast
how to inhale hate
exhale with peace
