 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Now a days there’s so much that I could write
It’s hard to know exactly what to write
And I don’t think any dictionary has the right words to describe
How I’m feeling inside 'cause it’s like
What’s today’s pandemic or disaster
Who’s the latest black man killed by a cop
Who’s gotta new meme so we can have some laughter
Like this worlds funny
Even when it’s not
But I still laugh just to cover up... the size a these knots I feel inside my gut
I’m standing up now
I’ve lied down enough
And I’m not buying what these liars wanna disguise as love
They tell you if you vote it’ll change things
And if you don’t then you won’t get a say in things
So either way you’re controlled by the way a things
Lesser of 2 evils or... face the shame it brings
Seems pretty fair doesn’t it
Hey, I don’t make the rules... they’re the government
They say to vote
And exercise our right to choose
But is it really a choice... if they control who
That’s like saying pick a card
When I’m only holding 2 and know they’re both jokers
So the jokes on... you
So what’s my political stance
I gotta middle finger on both hands because
I don't wanna play
The games we play
I don't wanna say what they say I should say and
I don't wanna go where they say I should go
Or do what I'm told 'cause you say it is so
See maybe it's me
But that isn't free
My life ain't as black or as white as you see
I won't turn to leave
I vow solemnly
To live life as if we had one... heart... beat like
Bump, bump, bump, bump
One heartbeat like
Bump, bump, bump, bump
One heartbeat like
Bump, bump, bump, bump
One heartbeat, just you and me
One... heart... beat
And some people already clicked away
And I get it
'Cause most can't this talk
I almost didn't say this
Went to erase but paused
'Cause just ignoring pain never once made it stop
See I don't do this for a playlist or blog
I don't do it for a co-sign or a-lister nod
I speak my mind whether it entertains you or not
Like f*ck skin
Sometimes I wish I could take mine off
How could you not relate
Take in this thought
Humans were made into slaves and were bought
And even children were shackled into chains that were locked
And we still got the nerve to minimize the pain that it caused
We only think about who's famous or not
But think about the names that never got a grave or a plot
We wanna say it was the old days
But it was not
'Cause almost daily I see minorities tased or shot
By a guy who looks like me but he's a racist cop
Just doing what he's learned
His hate was taught
And I'm not saying all cops are the same so stop
I think being police is probably the bravest job
There's always a few bad seeds when you're laying down crops
But wait... by that logic... or train of thought
Trade shoes for a second
Rearrange the plots
What if you were hated for the skin you were gave by God
And I judged you... before I knew your name or not
Guilty
And the gavel could be mace or a glock
Or a simple judging stare on a face as you walk
Into a grocery store... the next day you go to shop
Yeah... to acknowledge that can take a lot
But it's really simple
Are we willing to change or not
That's why I spread my own wings
I won't chase a flock
That's why I don't wear chains
I rather break the locks
'Cause while you typed up a storm in the last facebook debate you lost
Politicians were changing laws
But who the f*ck am I to say
But what I do say... I say because
I don't wanna play
The games we play
I don't wanna say what they say I should say and
I don't wanna go where they say I should go
Or do what I'm told 'cause you say it is so
See maybe it's me
But that isn't free
My life ain't as black or as white as you see
I won't turn to leave
I vow solemnly
To live life as if we had one... heart... beat
