Please Mister
Don't take my life away, oh
I had plans sir
Lunch with the wife today
Oh, oh
And with no reason I fade to the blackness
Ain't the faintest idea what just happened
Well I'm sorry
My skin tone could not appease and
We're left with broken families

With only broken picture frames to cry on at night
A shattered image of a brother
Tryna stray from a fight
You know his mother taught him how to say
Yes, sir
No, sir
But manners only brought his life
A curtain with no closure, uh
Close your eyes
The way your soldier did to block the hate
You close your eyes to heal
But his are closed until the gate opens
And he can say goodbye to the omens
Blast away to higher ground with feelings unspoken
But, at least he free from the madness
Ain't that often niggas get to choose how life happens
And when it goes dark to the beat of that hammer click
We think about his last words for a minute
When he ask the man

Please Mister
Don't take my life away, oh
I had plans sir
Lunch with the wife today
Oh, oh
And with no reason I fade to the blackness
Ain't the faintest idea what just happened
Well I'm sorry
My skin tone could not appease and
We're left with broken families

Everybody knows it's cold out here
Forced to take their pill, but I'm choking on fear
There ain't no reason for all this
Small names on tall lists
A world so lawless we have to take the fall
This time
File straight in a line
And act like everything that happens is fine
Ain't no reward we receive
When they tell us leave, oh
And we're left with broken families

I owe my father more than lying dead at coward feet
If I admit I'm scared to die
Will it help me sleep
If I take on my Sheppard name
Can I lead the sheep
Or will I sheepishly ship off until I find my feet
This ain't a world of black and white
Yo' that sound so bleak
I can't explain the way I turn a head amongst the meek
It's maybe cause they mama wasn't there to kiss their cheek
But when they hate me for the way I am I only think
We isn't them
I turn around and love my neighbor
I will not let my soul be swallowed up with blood and anger
Go on and flip me off
Hit you with my first two fingers
We haven't reached the mountaintop so Imma escalator

Please Mister
Don't take my life away, oh
I had plans sir
Lunch with the wife today
Oh, oh
And without reason I fade to the blackness
Ain't the faintest idea what just happened
Well I'm sorry
My skin tone could not appease and
We're left with broken families

Everybody knows it's cold out here
Forced to take their pill, but I'm choking on fear
There ain't no reason for all this
Small names on tall lists
A world so lawless we have to take the fall
This time
File straight in a line
And act like everything that happens is fine
Ain't no reward we receive
When they tell us leave, oh
And we're left with broken families
