Walk up in the club, target on my back It's not red or white, it's like me: blue and black Copper raining down on me, there's a price on my head It seems like my date of birth will be the cause of my death Look at my birth certificate and see it as hit order The way that you were raised has made your sight distorted I am so tired of living in fear I duck in the shadows where I must adhere Conservatives say that I'm overdramatic Don't press an issue, boy, if you've never had it Calling my brothers and my allies some thugs When all we're trying to do is just simply stand up We're tired of stepping out the door, fearing we'll get pulled over Not knowing what for and get thrown to the floor It's so ridiculous I have to tell my fam and friends If they experience this then they better remember this Everybody put your hands in the air Breathe in, we're getting jumped, jumped Everybody put your hands in the air Breathe in, we're getting jumped, jumped Everybody put your hands in the air Don't show them that you're scared Just say a little prayer Everybody put your hands in the air We're getting jumped, jumped, jumped, jumped African American but still American as an Aryan I used to be proud to be an American But now this shit's getting kinda embarrassing I'm feeling callous like I'm keratin I'm know I'm right, I'm not being arrogant My mother told me nothing in life's free Especially not America and not the ebony There's reason why our flag is red, white, and blue The red is the blood that they drain out of you White is the race that supresses and calls us coons And the blue are the boys that'll kill me before I'm 22 There's no reason to be scared, boy You're paranoid, boy Must be tough being in cuffs but you must have done something wrong, boy Whites deny the past, it's a race against time They don't want to acknowledge the U.S. history of crimes Reagan tried to destroy us but you still ignore it Funding contras pushing coca on the streets, oh Lordy Then condemn us for it, imprison us for it That's no conspiracy, that's reality Urban life's exactly what it's cracked up to be Urban life's exactly what it's cracked up to be They condemn us for it, imprison us for it That's no conspiracy, that's reality Urban life's exactly what it's cracked up to be Urban life's exactly what it's cracked up to be Everybody put your hands in the air Breathe in, we're getting jumped, jumped Everybody put your hands in the air Breathe in, we're getting jumped, jumped Everybody put your hands in the air Don't show them that you're scared Just say a little prayer Everybody put your hands in the air We're getting jumped, jumped, jumped, jumped Jump, jump, jump Jump for me, jump for me Jump, jump, jump Jump for me, jump for me Jump, jump, jump, jump Jump for me, jump for me
