We have been mistreated for more than 300 years There is blood on these streets, sir Why are we going to continue being peaceful When they are killing my brothers and sisters We are being peaceful, we are on the grass Why are they here? It is because of them Why we’re here so why the f*ck are they here, sir I’m tired of being peaceful I have lost three brothers to this sir, three This is not alright, I’m hurt Am I expendable Is life contingent on white supremacists with ammo Relentlessly killing colored people, if I go Outside will I die? The answer I do not know But really it's possible Shots with no probable cause and no obstacles Shea butter skin give permission to follow you Moving in silence is cause for somebody to silence you What is the law gon’ do? Besides murder you Or let the murderer go with no logical Reason why he’s not responsible For pulling triggers on innocent black individuals It feels impossible, fighting a system that just wants to end your existence A human diminished into an image of a criminal with bad intentions They pull out their weapons Always shoot first and ask second then go play the victim And get off with mental illness, self protection, or citizen with suspicion Man look how we living We on a timer, your life could get took any minute And don’t nobody ever really care until it's trending Am I expendable Damn, this shit is heavy This shit is heavy The answer, I don’t know Everyday could be my last So I’m praying my present will end up my past not my ending I’m so far from finished, but letting me live’s your decision I’m begging don’t kill me please Where will my people go Damn, this shit is heavy This shit is heavy Trapped by your control Don’t know my value cuz I just see Media broadcasting images of police Shooting up people whose skin looks the same as me And it brings pain to me Why do they hate on me Am I expendable You don’t see my eyes? I’m hurt! Looking for some peace within myself Looking for a break from all this shit When you’re black there’s no vacation time Everyday’s a battle to fit in Everybody wanna keep you out This world ain’t got no love left for us This for every Ruby in the south This for every Rosa on the bus This for every Michael, Eric, George, Breonna, Alton Sandra, Trayvon Martin Regardless of what names are said By being black we’ve been inside the shoes of all them The times been tough, the road been hard But best believe that we’ve been steady making progress And we will fight, and we won't stop at all Until the day our sons and daughters are walking Free It’s not okay America cannot be the land of the free Until every fucking life is free Point blank, motherfucking, period
