F*ck the government
Standing over us, knee on our neck, I can't breathe, we're suffering
Home of brave, who be pillaging and plundering
Modern day gentrification and Columbusing
Hard to get over the past when you wiping your ass with our culture and then flushing it
If you mad at racist statues crumbling
I pray to God white Jesus is something that you struggle with
Idolatry permeates our society
Property supersedes people dying
We try to Rosa and MLK but I fear the Malcolm and Marcus that might grow inside of me
Oppression of black folk
We stressed and lack hope
History shows cutting off appendages so we couldn't run away
Intolerance to fuckery ain't the only time we lactose

I'm tired of white allies holding their tongues
I'm tired of begging the churches to act
I'm tired of peaceful movements getting portrayed as destructive
I'm tired of always yelling and never being heard
And I'm also tired of thinking that I'm gonna get shot at, followed in public, or be looked at as lesser for being black
I'm tired
I will not stand down

There's a public misconception that we choose pain
That 2020 is the year that we grew brains
Shit been happening for centuries
And it's hitting me when I turn on the news and see my dudes slain
Need accountability yet they choose blame
How they picture my people, they need a new frame
It ain't true we blew fame, I'm hot as a blue flame
Tell me they don't see red when the blue aim
We're looking for true change, treat us like loose change,
Bottom of the barrel and they tighten our loose chains
Life must good top of the food chain
Who trained yall to make a noose hang? 
Barack? Focus on the Hussein
I ain't vote for him, parties are too lame
No democracy, there's only two lanes
And a range of deranged leaders, who's sane?
Yall singing the same songs my crews sang
Blowing trees, same ones where my crews hang
Black and proud, they wanna see my crews tamed
On the pavement they wanna see my crews stained
When my people die, who gains?
Yall send em to the clouds, who rains?
Defund and reallocate, new reins
Stop playing with lives, yall need a new game
