I can't see em coming down my eyes So I gotta let my soul cry Bleed it out on these lines I bleed it out on these lines Yea I can't see em coming down my eyes So I gotta let my soul cry Bleed it out on these lines I bleed it out on these lines Sittin' in a cold room looking at these bills pile I'm never wishing that you know what this feels like Numb to it now the water from my tears dry Looking to the sky like this can't be real life Isolated, this world won't even throw me a bone Cuz even if you let him roam every dog need a home I keep tryna fly, my wings keep getting clipped God if you really in control, then why you doing me so sick Why you let me slide up in that b*tch without a rubber Knowing them child support muf*ckas gon' wanna smother Man, I'm talking lather me in debt The more I make, the more they take, can't get ahead I'm not the one to complain, but this really ain't fair Like for a misdemeanor hit me with a ninety-thousand dollar bail? I still ain't played the race card yet, they follow me all around town got my plates getting checked F*ck the police, I say that in a general sense Cuz all of em ain't bad, but the system is They wanna wash ya like some dishes n leave ya rinsed 'Least thats if you Black's what the condition is Oops, there go the race card lemme hear y'all trip I know y'all hate to hear the story of the Black man's struggle like we made this shit up One day we had a huddle said, ooh, lets make a play We can say the system hate, wanna lock us in a cage Make sure we under paid, we could say they judge us strictly really only off our race Call us crooks call us thieves, treat us like we a disgrace 'Specially if we leave our hair natural or in braids N if we dark n got a hoodie on thats reason to get sprayed You know what else we could say, we could say that as a youngin' as a teen I was framed We could say they saw me walking down the street to them was strange We could say they followed me for blocks, stalked they prey We could say they ambushed a kid I was just afraid We could say they pinned drugs on me, put me in a cage We could say they saw my innocence n took that away We could say that they was cold towards them tears on my face We could say they changed my life, I'll never be the same Still locked in the system, just turned 28 We could say the goal really ain't to rehabilitate We could tell racism still lives on today We could tell em we ain't gave up yet we still bringin' change Yea, Yea, said we could tell em we ain't gave up yet we still bringing change But they'll never hear the testimony, God gimme one tear I could cry Like Denzel in Glory Swear before y'all 'fore I die, I'mma change the story Swear before I go if I lied, don't wake me in the morning Swear before y'all 'fore I die, I'mma change the story Swear before I go if I lied, don't wake me in the morning Yea yea I said I swear before y'all if I lied, don't wake me in the morning I can't see em coming down my eyes So I gotta let my soul cry Bleed it out on these lines I bleed it out on these lines Yea I can't see em coming down my eyes So I gotta let my soul cry Bleed it out on these lines I bleed it out on these lines
