I ain't trippin' on no Star Spangled Banner Land of the brave kids come strapped with the hammers Hate our skin but they still tryna get tanner And the rich built their shit being, uh Love and hate, how you play with our fate The little dreams that you bait Leadin' us up to your gates The world's most perfect of states Built on deception and hate Ink in my skin but didn't know it had weight Pledge loyalty, judge told me save the date America first but shit seem real second rate Open minded never tryna debate Ain't no sides when you f*ck with our fates Taking life from Mozambique to Kuwait God's the only one to which we await Leave the life that I know behind Pushing past the boundaries defined Life should be the things we outline Yet this shit got us all confined Wait till we, wait till we Leave the life that I know behind Pushing past the boundaries defined Life should be the things we outline Wait till we, wait till we Wait, wait, wait, wait Sold by chiefs to kings and queens, said to give 'em their crowns Scared to teach their kids to swim cause half their ancestors drowned Did the natives all the same now they ain't to be found Searched in Africa for jewels to fill your ugly lil' crowns Moved west hoping for gold the second time you came round Came through same shit to pillage town after town Took the land but ain't content still tryna beat down On my brethren Manifestin' all seven deadly sins The dead piling up, doctors can't find no next of kin Continent after continent, hundred years later, y'all still stuck on my bedouins Only proved your love for breaking and entering In business that ain't yours, y'all real trained in meddling Places that ain't stable be your favorite to fester in Pointing out peoples' problems made y'all real versed in lecturing Suddenly there's no more remembering Cause when you f*ck up you get real good at censoring Leave the life that I know behind Pushing past the boundaries defined Life should be the things we outline Yet this shit got us all confined Wait till we, wait till we Leave the life that I know behind Pushing past the boundaries defined Life should be the things we outline Wait till we, wait till we Wait, wait, wait, wait Rubber bands round shirts, The dye is rolled You can't control How pigs patrol I know it hurts But this is chance Could still advance Still do the dance Just to avert One day assert Our position Big Apple visions bring our dreams to fruition But y'all ain't ready for admission Of guilt and attrition We made it the mission Can't wait to see your face when you decide to just listen Won't forget it it'll be the same day Jesus has risen Leave the, leave the, leave the...know behind Pushing past the boundaries defined Life should be the things we outline Yet this shit got us all confined Wait till we, wait till we Leave the life that I know behind Pushing past the boundaries defined Life should be the things we outline Wait till we, wait till we Wait, wait, wait, wait
