Murder Lynched Raped Hurt Shit ain’t never change Still the same it’s been since square 1 Yea I see it every day 9-5 Just to get to by in life We slaving every day So much bodies dropping falling Yea I’m hurt in Every way One nation Under god With liberty and justice for all? No I can’t even go get up and jog no This system built against us and we all know Yea we all know If one of us gone go to war We all go Coppers killin people and ain’t no one take the fall no We be thinking all for one What about one for all tho They created poverty now look at us we broke And I ain’t talking paper no I’m talking bout our mindsets Justice for our people That's one thing that we ain’t find yet My people is dying Families is crying We done had enough My people out here starting riots You one of the homies Oh Man I don’t even buy it Oh You wanna say nigga huh Man don’t you even try it If you never been victimized By cops Then you Don't feel my pain Your people was whipping My people was whipped inside of chains Your people is privileged My people praying for brighter days Death over dishoner This ain’t the game that you want to play If You don’t have sacrifice Ya culture you don't know the hurt You don’t wanna trade places That a be a real reverse Momma cried as soon she left the projects And I feel with her She don’t don’t want her son being a victim And it’s killing her Lemme ask a question You heard of the slave trade? People stripped of freedom So What you think the slaves prayed? They done prayed for mercy Tryna be released from the whips and chains Now my people praying on they knees to buy whips and chains Man nothing changed It's safe to say that we're still enslaved All of this is mental Just think and you gonna feel a way Murder Lynched Raped Hurt Shit ain’t never change Still the same it’s been since square 1 Yea I see it every day 9-5 Just to get to by in life We slaving every day So much bodies dropping falling Yea I’m hurt in Every way Water Water Water aye voss... Tryna drown out the chaos... You just cop a chain, what it cost? Every time you gain, you take a loss... And nigga that’s a lesson... Pray my brethren stay protected... So many blessings... I can’t even count the blessings... Onto the greater things I still gotta lessen. Simplify Words of the wise Instead of taking action You record Lights camera action You want an award We got enough actors We got enough rappers We need some warriors cuz we in a war Black president nun really changed... It was a ploy to keep The rest of the world entertained... Look at the USA They nice to they slaves Now they showing they Trump card Issa a new day It’s not about race It’s about money Now about face And march for ya country That’s how you turn the other cheek It’s cheap labor and The 1% doesn’t discriminate Against the face of bummy Every race got poverty Domination possibly Over the world is where the plotting stops You are the progeny Of a people that went to the enslaver And asked em to save em Niqqa you got to save yourself Just act in that favor Murder Lynched Raped Hurt Shit ain’t never change Still the same it’s been since square 1 Yea I see it every day 9-5 Just to get to by in life We slaving every day So much bodies dropping falling Yea I’m hurt in Every way
