This gotta be bout day 99 in this quarantine
I guess that gives the cops in excuse to try to murder me
I mean they killing me at least that’s all I see when I am on my timeline
And it’s not sometimes I don’t have to rewind
To days in Selma when they use to oppress us shoot us right in our face
Won’t let us vote because they already took our place (vote)
But now we marching because we got more things that we could lose
And now is something 60 years later you can’t choose
Choose what they wanna do to you that’s true
But you can choose how you wanna respond to it that’s real
Every day I’m on my timeline
Say hashtag to another black life
I think that black lives should matter more
Ima let that sink
While muthaf#ckers sit back in think
They killing us off and they would just go themselves
Like we got 1 other n#gg# who could go under shelves
Go 6 feet under and
I just wonder why (repeat 2x)
Tried to play the suit and tie
Tried to worked for co(reparations)
But they didn’t have patience
They just wanna take it from you (yea)
They just want you just to run through
Through the cycle of spending and now you not winning
And how you got make more money you just sinning
Scamming and selling drugs right back to your people
This not a cycle man it fells like a sequel (why)
Why we gotta do that but this is just our circumstances
Or n#gg#s gotta prace for label advances
Its just the system and a cycle that we born to live with
No control we pass it on to our children
Man it’s crazy but the systems build to kill us damn
I hate to say it
I know Ima new artist should it even talk about this shit?
Conflicted with the sh#t idk how I’m gonna get
Radio buzz and people talking bout me
I mean f#ck that sh#t thru my art they can see
This sh#t real I’m just going down my timeline
Saying hashtag to another black life (black lives should matter)
I think that black lives should matter (black lives matter)
Man this sh#t is crazy just going down through my timeline
Had to say another hashtag to a name
Another hashtag to name
Life was just the same
60 years ago we was walking down Selma
Now they spraying water holes on us like we animals
Got dog barking on us everyone is running
But to them funny man this sh#t heaven sent
Now they trying to gentrify us out the community we build (we built it damn)
I guess this sh#t is so real
I guess I lost all my feels
Have no chills until i pop that pill
Flow gives you deal you can sign here
This our time yea
Hope while you stuck in this quarantine
You can think
Think about how they just tryna sink us
Hope we come together
But however
Takes more than one
Takes more than one
