[verse 1]
we wearing black to the funerals and white to the weddings
that means light brings you life but the dark is unsettling
but who am i to tell the truth? don’t know too much about it
it’s always getting misconstrued every time we mouth it
king james wrote the bible and where is jesus in the plot?
and renamed all your idols, ain’t no need for them to stop
if the ghetto full of black then what’s the reason y’all get shot?
if the kettle call me black at least it’s seasoned in my pot
you k!ll who you around but y’all knew that from the jump
the oppressor can’t be found, then who do you confront?
your own brother and it’s sick but an instinct nonetheless
then they tell you that you evil for the sins you confess
you k!ll who you around but y’all knew that from the jump
the oppressor can’t be found, then who do you confront?
your own brother and it’s sick but an instinct nonetheless
then they tell you that you evil for the sins you confess, d-mn

[interlude]
scott had no right to sue, because as a black man he was never intended to be an american. speaking on the clause in the declaration of independence, that all men are created equal, taney wrote quote, “it is too clear for dispute that the enslaved african race were not intended to be included and formed no part of the people who framed and adopted this declaration.”

[verse 2]
once i’m free maybe i can sing of love and omissions
y’all still hollering ’bout slavery, y’all love reminiscing
i mean we only die for the country y’all live in
but it wasn’t good enough, still had to come to the sit ins
and when it comes to the k!llings gotta comfort your feelings?
yeah get it, play the game to change the game, but that ain’t like me
well of course got a check for your souls that ain’t nike
wear unc on my chest, but a cross, that ain’t likely
and i ain’t sh-ttin’ on n0body’s religion
wherever you find strength, go where it is given
and that’s my only mantra, as a i contemplate
on everything that’s holy and they consecrate
so while it’s cool for the jews expanding israel
get they magic kingdom like it’s disney world
and america’s involvement is so pivotal
like the issues we got here is just invisible
it’s your people that’s crying, it’s your people that’s dying
ain’t no secret they hiding, that’s the reason they writing
another headline of a life took, most likely
and i’m crying ’cause that motherf-cker look just like me

[outro]
we lose loved ones every day to the people that’s sworn in to protect us
what’s it gonna take for you guys to be okay tonight and stop this chaos?
it’s not us. you’re taking someone, a loved one from someone. this is what you get. you get a lot of people that’s hurt, and they can’t vent the right way. they can’t no longer depend on they say they gon’ do. so this is what you get. and no it’s not gon’ end today, i can’t tell you it’s gon’ end tomorrow. i don’t know when it’s gon’ end. y’all k!lling us. we can’t make a change if y’all don’t change!
