Anyone that says Blue lives matter Isn't truly considering That black lives Really do matter How long does it take to gather All the material To make a universe Only to have it shattered In 8 and a half minutes It's been a decade Of a cop on the tape And we still can't Acknowledge it's more than A mistake The locals are maimed and Blamed For the looters from out of state Opportunistic like in the wake Of every darkest day It's important to state That racist points of view Aren't a matter of red and blue It's more just what America do Like apple pie or a cake made outta fruit It's not for the whites to be defensive But to listen with a different pair of lenses I'm thankful there are public officials Calling not for violence but vigils It's critical But I'm glad it's not me to have to say those words Because I don't have the heart to tell them that words will work All the lies, keep my mind in a defiant state Speak the truth even if you take my mic away Whether you with me or against me Ride or Die Today That's how it is when you live in the Divided States Ride or Die Today, playa Ride of Die Today Ride or Die Today, playa Ride or Die Today Whether you with me or against me Ride or Die Today That's how it is when you live in the Divided States Let me sit down at this table And discuss this de"bay"cle with you over dis' bagel Since Nat Turner, this black burnin' obsession with oppression second-classism incorrigible original royalty Among the plains Plainly speaking they were ahead of the game The rules aren't the same Said King Flyz now they got a brotha to blame From Missoula to Missouri From Montana to Maine What's united about these American States? I think it's important to say There's no shame in suffering invisible pain 'S why I refrain From complaints These complots Sparkin' a fresh crop In Boise these boys would be in a flash mob But there's murderers in Ferguson Certainly you've heard of 'em But Jamie isn't the one with the gun From banker to bum It's not the only problem i und Erstand but it's a pretty big one A badge of copper A badge of honor does not make Yo, Blue, At least you get to live with your mistake All the lies, keep my mind in a defiant state Speak the truth even if you take my mic away Whether you with me or against me Ride or Die Today That's how it is when you live in the Divided States Ride or Die Today, playa Ride of Die Today Ride or Die Today, playa Ride or Die Today Whether you with me or against me Ride or Die Today That's how it is when you live in the Divided States
