Don't wanna go back in chains Still fightin' for my, my name The blood on the t-shirt stains Nothin' but a heartless game to take one's mind They don't mind cuz when they see a nigga, put a finger on the trigger Mama told me, told me to watch what I say You better refrain from all that eye rolling, sucking your teeth Because they're coming for that, they're coming for that quota mama told me You'll never be his equal, they all want us to live in fear Loose me of those shackles, your nation's created by my tears I can't cry, I can't cry no more You shoot them, you shoot me what for? Brothers and sisters taken from their mothers Like Trayvon and Garner who wanted no drama You wonder why all the picket signs My fingers high and this fist of mine Blood on the t-shirt stains Nothin' but a heartless game to steal your soul Before ya know it, you'll be back on the chain gang, bullets go bang Mama told me, told me to watch what I say You better refrain from all that eye rolling, sucking your teeth Because they're coming for that, they're coming for that quota mama told me The revolution will not be televised I'm 21, yeah I'm just lucky to be alive But how can I live when it's painted on my back The target I was given coming out the womb Black Imma fight till the end give it all that I got A never ending battle with these bigoted cops Niggas dying everyday going to jail everyday A black man's life in the USA My mama told me better watch what I say She said that I must refrain from all that running on my mouth boy Running from my mouth girl, whatchu do that for Freedom- are we really are we really free They're gonna get you better run for it, run for it They're gonna get you better run for it, run for it They're gonna get you better run for it, running for it My mama told me
