What we've been doing is looking at the data and we know
That police somehow manage to deescalate, disarm and not kill white people everyday 
So what's going to happen is we are going to have equal rights and justice in our own country
Or we will restructure their function and ours

Stolen from home, they took all our rights 
Brought to the unknown with fear in our eyes
Runaway slaves, beaten and hanged
Stereotyping, demeaning and cheating our people will this ever change
They don't know, they don't know about the struggles that we face
How "the Man" holds us back and ties our feet when tryna race
Bad enough, bad enough we fight each other everyday
Don't excuse how officers are pulling guns up off they waist 
People getting killed everytime I come around here
Innocent or not; kill us off till we not here 
I fear for my life in this justiceless system I hope that they hear
What did I do, what did I do
I ain't do nothing, I am who I am
Jumping through hoops, jumping hoops
This how I feel as an African man

My people dying everywhere, they don't seem to care; I'm mad
Why must we be the victims this ain't right this ain't fair; It's so sad
They pull guns, they draw blood, they gettin' way too reckless 
You can't hide from our eyes, you shoot when we're defenseless 
The victim's mother's sobbing, the justice system's fallin
We'll fight until we're breathless, fight for our equal justice

Too much on my mind, my head keeps spinning I'm just tryna stay afloat bruh
Hoping that these feelings gon' subside, submerge, pain got me choked up
He said he can't breathe, review your knee, you got it placed on his throat bruh
Pardon my paranoia but it feel like every time these bullets fly that they chose us
You see this pain, it know me well
Freedom reign when them cops try to ring your bell
They killing blacks in the streets and behind them cells 
From Sean, to Oscar, to Trayvon and probably more
This is why I never chose to play cops and robbers
Brothers dying every week
Can we stop the nonsense please?
I never thought that I could feel this greif black skin in the soil we've been rolling in the deep
Feel it in my roots, we all want peace but why you keep raising your piece
Open your mind and release
The world ain't as big as you think 
I see the sky as the day go by, talking to God like Man when the reign gon' stop
Hoping tomorrow gon' be different in a day of God
Let in your light, shine through as we pray oh God like Amen 

My people dying everywhere, they don't seem to care; I'm mad
Why must we be the victims this ain't right this ain't fair; It's so sad
They pull guns, they draw blood, they gettin' way too reckless 
You can't hide from our eyes, you shoot when we're defenseless 
The victim's mother's sobbing, the justice system's fallin
We'll fight until we're breathless, fight for our equal justice

January 1st, 2009, that B.A.R.T policeman ain't do no time
It was inhuman so I'll go on a rant
About the cold blooded murder of Oscar Grant
Three years went by we down in Sanford
A family's life has been dismantled 
Trayvon's gone but Zimmerman walks
When everybody knows that he took the shot
Killer cops getting off cuz of lopsided juries
Just skittles and iced tea in the the hoodie
He left him dead, left him dead on the ground 
Like Ferguson Missouri and they killing Michael Brown
Police is a legalized racist Klan
Hiding from the murders like Sandra Bland 
And in New York them cops is cold
Eric Garner was killed by the Po Po's Choke hold
I've had enough; I'm sick of it all
If I was in trouble then who the hell do I call
Police might shoot me for yelling help
Done with 5'0 I'm by myself
You say you cop, but viewed as killer 
When you see black you just pullin' the trigger
Killer cops getting off cuz of what the courts said 
Rewriting' the laws this the opposite of justice 

They pull guns, they draw blood, they getting way too reckless 
You can't hide from our eyes, you shoot when we're defenseless 
The victim's mother's sobbing; the justice system's fallin
We'll fight until we're breathless, for equal justice

Go now
Let my people go
