What if I was on my knees and executed by police
What if I was being choked and they knew that I couldn't breathe
What if I was in the cop car and was killed in the back seat
With hands cuffed a lot behind me, y'all ain't losing any sleep
Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, and that's a fact
Ain't no protests with signs for me, cause I ain't black
Ain't no hashtags online for me, or fighting back
Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, bet y'all don't riot for me
Ain't it demonic how the news make a piece of shit look iconic
How ironic, if the ratings go up, so does the profits
You can change the station, but the reading from the same script
White man gunned down by police, ain't nobody play that clip
No one gave a shit, I won't get no famous case
I won't get no downtown monument where they paint my face
I won't get no NFL jersey spot that say my name
Oh that's right, since I'm white the situation ain't the same
Black lives matter, Asian lives matter, Spanish lives matter
Ain't allowed to say Caucasian lives matter
Why? That don't fit the narrative, that would mean equality
Truth in the mainstream media, that's mythology
they been using my people, your people, good people, poor people
Either we wake up or they gon' keep on using more people
I tried to warn people, supply them the truth
If the victim was me, y'all wouldn't riot and loot
What if I was on my knees and executed by police
What if I was being choked and they knew that I couldn't breathe
What if I was in the cop car and was killed in the back seat
With hands cuffed a lot behind me, y'all ain't losing any sleep
Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, and that's a fact
Ain't no protests with signs for me, cause I ain't black
Ain't no hashtags online for me, or fighting back
Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, bet y'all don't riot for me
This is so exhausting, way the news talking
It's like black folks only once dead in coffins
Black on black ain't a tragedy
Guess news cameras ran out of batteries
Live by the gun, die by the gun
When it happens in the hood, y'all ain't saying none
But soon as that trigger finger white, y'all be tearing shit up on the same night
Say I ain't right, say I ain't white
Let's say that I'm black
Get pulled over, try to run away and scrap
Reaching for the strap, but he get it first
So I slug him in the face at the same time that it burst
Now I'm just another reason to write a name on a shirt
When the truth is I just got what I deserve
When you playing dumb games than you win a dumb prize
unless it whites killing blacks, they don't give a f*ck who dies
When you gonna realize they just trying to divide us
Red, white and blue, it's the colors that unite us
Getting sick and tired of the looting and the riots
When the truth is if I was dead, then y'all be dead silent
What if I was on my knees and executed by police
What if I was being choked and they knew that I couldn't breathe
What if I was in the cop car and was killed in the back seat
With hands cuffed a lot behind me, y'all ain't losing any sleep
Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, and that's a fact
Ain't no protests with signs for me, cause I ain't black
Ain't no hashtags online for me, or fighting back
Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, bet y'all don't riot for me
