Yeah
This beat is so out of sight
I’m a take these folks to church
Wake some souls up tonight
Heh
One question
How you an activist
And you acting like this
East-O on that beat
I’m so tired false rappers
And they lame contradictions
Literally hypocritically walking dead impositions
Forcing your negative on my positive
Please listen
Raised with a tight fist
And that tight fist the mission
Politicians talking that same ole lame
We getting fouled every minute
We still in the game
Shooting threes by the threes
Crossing over your lane
Kendrick said we’d be alright
I’m making the change
I spent some time in the mirror
Then added a name
Robyn Hood
Poverty to prestige exchanged
Got that knowledge
Spent them dimes on college
Masters the same
Went and got it
Came back
You still rolling that Jane
Called on Mary and Jesus
Bilingual this thang
On my Huey P. Newton
I don’t care about fame
I’m giving out lunch bars
Spit no candy canes
Every minute every hour
No pain no gain
Black Power
Every hour
Black lives matter
Screaming from the tower
Want everyone to hear me
That’s why we up high
Wave your hand like this
Pump your fist to the sky
Black Power
Every hour
We want change
Screaming from the tower
Want everyone to hear me
That’s why we up high
Wave your hands like this
Pump your fist to the sky
Pursued while in pursuit
For the meaning of what’s truth
What’s right
I know we black
And my back is dark as night
Don’t strike
In it to win it
We running and taking flight
In some all black huaraches
Racing to save my life
Trying to avoid the scene of project strife
Or that street corner talk
Now that BS can get the knife
I’m positive though it’s relative
Shafted by white privilege
In but out the fields
Handcuffs instead of lynching
Spirit got renewed now both fists is clinching
Negro turtle neck
Black Panther the mission
Asking how I can give back
Raise the bar
Lift my people steeple high
Fist pumping the sky
Be a vessel in a vest
Black boots to my thighs
Screaming black lives matter
Trying to brown lives
Lord God please forgive me
If I seem to aggressive
But these haters out here
They make it hard to be progressive
For real
Say her name
Say her name
Black Power
Every hour
Black lives matter
Screaming from the tower
Want everyone to hear me
That’s why we up high
Wave your hands like this
Pump your fist to the sky
Black Power
Every hour
We want change
Screaming from the tower
Want everyone to hear me
That’s why we up high
Wave your hands like this
Pump your fist to the sky
Tweet this
Treat folks right
And you they won't diss
And we don't hold no grudges
Here's a reparations kiss
Got a master's plan
Called blacks in high demand
Running in everything in sight
White House to the land
Need that focus like Obama
No forty five drama
Make me wanna grab that AK
Take it to him like Osama
But that Queen raised me right
Yeah
Word to my mama
I'm just trying to get this paper
Add some zeros and some commas
Black Power
Every hour
Black lives matter
Screaming from the tower
Want everyone to hear me
That’s why we up high
Wave your hands like this
Pump your fist to the sky
Black Power
Every hour
We want change
Screaming from the tower
Want everyone to hear me
That’s why we up high
Wave your hands like this
Pump your fist to the sky
Say her name
Say her name
Say her name
Say her name
Say her name
Say her name
Say her name
Say her name
