I build the wall just to break it Mask on my face cause I couldn’t face it We’re all God’s children How the f*ck you a racist Hands up hands up Let's pray for salvation Black matters Turn to Family Matters Stop your chit and chatter Make sure we look the part for the cameras Convoluted and looting Mistaking a crime for the movement Private destruction of property Cause we need societal improvements This the type of story For them Black and White movies But we turned reality to illusions When good cops Bad cops All turned to bullies! Hands up! Hands up! Lord knows I don’t want the trouble I’m just tryna live Why these pigs Always searching for truffle I wish someone huffed and puffed and blowed They house in So I could do like Rick James and f*ck they couches I’m not even Jerry Tom, why we still Cat and Mousin' How many more molehills turn to mountains How many more of these youths force to drink From the fountain If there was a death toll You motherfuckers would still be counting Plus the many more unaccounted for May the lord have mercy on their souls As they were bought locked beat and sold Hence the story begins The origin of mankind’s original sin Across the globe they conquered it Now it’s all about racial diversity and worldwide sponsorships Sailed across the Atlantic in record numbers Just to sell these records back to Atlantic to feed the hunger 1865 and now we equal Nearly a hundred years till the sequel It wasn’t until brother Martin screamed from the steeple That we as men of color became people And we still moving bricks just to shop At your Gucci store Custom made edition Inscribed truly yours The book without chapters or pages The walls paved into walls into mazes The undefeated turned favorite It's amazing to see you all separated Even after the movement Venerating the racist The hatred Bashed beat and berated From every angle of the security tape Paused played and replayed it Police brutality not found Freeze, place lethal weapons on the ground Dumbfounded at the persistence Electrical currents thrown to my body Like a resistor Even though it was compliance at your assistance The glove never fit We only got one acquittal Halfway houses but we never met in the middle Halfway through the act and we still second fiddle But every whip and lash was very instrumental We turned into behemoths It wasn’t coincidental I gave you the peace, but you just want a piece of me There goes the riddle Between the homicide and the parricidal I am forever Malcolm in the middle I said between the homicide and the parricidal I am forever Malcolm in the middle I build the wall just to break it Mask on my face cause I couldn’t face it We’re all God’s children, how the f*ck you a racist Hands up hands up Let's pray for salvation Let's pray for salvation
