So many misconceptions and stereotypes about us
So much degrading, but we influence you the most
You love our culture
You grew up in a mansion, with a gate around the premises, given privileges since your genesis
So you could never understand my sentiments, they may be too intricate
Cuz we do not come from the same predicaments
You see me as your biggest nemesis
Hate the way i look, but your kids be trying to mimic it
America don't give shit 'bout niggas in the hood, think of Zimmerman
They say we menaces and our skin can get us sentences, even when we innocent
This a racist map and we are just some racing rats
Starting to see this ain't the place for blacks
USA, you kept slaves, they got freed but you kept hate
(USA, kept slaves, got freed, you kept hate)
In your heart for us (Heart for us)
Your life must be marvelous (Marvelous)
You're up there so far from us (Far from us)
Don't want no parts of us, but you like to take the art from us (But you like to take the art from us)
And claim as yours with no regards to us (With no regards to us)
Wanting us to stay beneath you
How you love the culture but you hate the people? (Damn)
When will you open your eyes and see that they don't want us to rise?
They don't want us rise (To rise, to rise, to rise)
They don't want us to rise (To rise, to rise)
When will you open your eyes and see that they don't want us to rise?
(Wake up now)
They don't want us to rise ( Don't be ashamed)
This how i was born and i would never be ashamed
Of how i look, no plastic surgery, won't ever rearrange
Got big lips and a big nose, it don't make me insecure
I'm in touch with who i am and i won't let you interfere
Negative scrutiny of my community don't ruin me
We influence you artistically, and musically, our movies be
Having you intrigued, but you still won't give us props
And if i speak against your system i might end getting shot
Damn, I don't understand it
Why were they calling the Panthers bandits? (Why?)
They were just trying to enhance the planet, R.I.P Fred Hampton
This country filled with so many propagandists, killing and stealing to get the advantage
For so many decades
Open your eyes and open your mind up
Don't let 'em blind ya, these motherfuckers are liars
So you gotta enlighten, yourself, and see that they really don't like ya
The president represent for all the racism, but we great as them
Erasing us what they mean when they say make America great again, so much hate in them
When will you open your eyes and see that they don't want us to rise?
(Embrace our culture)
They don't want us to rise
They don't want us to rise
(We influence you)
When will you open your eyes and see that they don't want us to rise?
(But you hate us the most)
They don't want us to rise
(Your kids wanna be just like us)
