To tell the truth
It's been a long time coming
Put a bounty on twelve
You know it's cheaper by the dozen
Hate to violate you
But you know you got it coming
No justice till you in pieces
I ain't settling for nothing
To tell the truth
It's been a long time coming
Put a bounty on twelve
You know it's cheaper by the dozen
Hate to violate you
But you know you got it coming
No justice till you in pieces
I ain't settling for nothing
We went from picking white cotton
To picking brown bodies off the concrete
You haunting my people
We find our peace in the coffins
You get off for the killing
The trigger gives you excitement
Hope you use to the heat
Cause Black Jesus still gives indictments
You think it's a game
You betting to see who win
But when a nigga touch down I'm shotgunning pig skins
Bend the block split ya top
See we droping bombs like jihad
If you ain't part of the bigger picture
Then you bout to get cropped
You in it for war
We knew that from the very start
You claim you a soldier
And you just fighting against the odds
You praised for the murder And now it's targets on the law
Put infrared on blue lives
To give you that purple heart
Your integrity stained by the blood of the executed
The blacker the berry the bigger the bullets that you shootin
The mark of the beast is a Badge
Know your enemy's movements
Spill the blood of these hogs These sacrifices get gruesome
To tell the truth
It's been a long time coming
Put a bounty on twelve
You know it's cheaper by the dozen
Hate to violate you
But you know you got it coming
No justice till you in pieces
I ain't settling for nothing
To tell the truth
It's been a long time coming
Put a bounty on twelve
You know it's cheaper by the dozen
Hate to violate you
But you know you got it coming
No justice till you in pieces
I ain't settling for nothing
I'm tired of fighting
I'm tired of living
I'm just trynna be righteous
But I'm tired of forgiving
All my people slain
The vision is vivid
We sing to the villains
While they killing the victims
F*ck a badge
They don't do no justice
They just kill and arrest us
When they supposed to protect us so
Who we supposed to call God
We try to fight in numbers
But we up against the odds
Excuse me if I'm wrong
The system got us trapped
The way y'all handle situations We just feel attacked
The way y'all see our color
Then immediately we wacked
Yeah niggas kill niggas
But not for being black
Not for selling CDs
Not because we strapped
Not because we smoke weed
Not because we rap
Seem like y'all got us fucked up
We helped you build a map
And then y'all promised freedom
Like we believe in that
Y'all tried to use the system
Someway they got us trapped
Found freedom up in Rosewood
Someway they got us back
Burn the city down
A city full of pain
They tried to turn us down
But it's volume in them flames
And it's value in them flames
And we travel through them flames
Am I my brother Malcolm
We travel through them veins
They focused on the cons
Forgot about the gains
We just trynna feed our sons
But all we got was rain
