Malcom X said, 'Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.'
Yet they underfund your schools, take your liberties away,
And permit racism to rule over a race they kept as slaves
I got a problem, think that I might be the coronavirus
Just want to lock you down and leave you lifeless
My name is Officer Nicest
My vice is blacking out names on my whitelist
Minneapolis; a diet, start up a riot
You want to fight my right to incite violence
Slap on the wrist while I stand on your neck
And yet wonder why nobody likes us!
All lives matter!
Said it so I can say you got it backwards
Turning pages after burning some chapters
Burning bridges, burning crosses like masters; this is my answer.
Serving sentences on platters! Get off of my ladder.
Quit being that salty if you're not a cracker!
Can't call me a Nazi if I'm not your captor!
If you're acting cocky, turn you into Casper!
I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to be scared to leave the house,
To be scared that driving a nice car might get me pulled over
To be scared that being pulled over might lead to me being falsely arrested
To be scared that getting arrested might be the last time I'm alive
What are you after? We gave you closure!
Give us the keys to your car, just pull over!
Get out the car, put some keys in your rover!
Get on the ground! Need to meet all our quotas!
Reach for my piece while you peacefully protest!
Police brutality: need to promote it!
Just took a moment to post a black tile on my socials
So you can't prove I had a motive
Provided photos of Trump showing care
Moved everybody, can tell by their tears
Twelve on the clock, you got nothing to fear
Rest assured that Bree never had time to be scared
Just a mistake with the suspect in custody
Just be grateful we took you out of slavery
Maybe you people weren't made to be major league
Maybe I'm racist, but blame that you made me be
In the words of Martin Luther King Jr:
"Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed."
And I confess, I too am guilty of doing too little
But I can't sit idly by knowing this happens to others simply because it hasn't happened to me yet
You got a problem: it took us too many years to admit it
Try breaking the cycle; my brake pads are missing
Try fighting white power without any priveledge
Deny your existence and put you in prisons
Vibing on cowards, liars, and religion
Why would we stand up if we're comfortable sitting?
Breaking the silence trying to beg us to listen
They need you to realize we can make a difference
Ignorance lead us to George
Scared to step in so we stop and record
Doctor official autopsy reports
Tarnish his daughter's memories by mentioning porn
Made him a martyr to show we agreed
Though he shouldn't have died, it's a social disease
No excuses this time! Can we please just concede
What would you want if you were the one who "can't breathe"?
How many fucking times does he have to say I can't breathe?
I can't breathe.
I can't breathe.
