Going Away

I know you won't miss me when I'm gone awaaay (gone away, gone away)
So Imma live on and fight another daaaay (Imma live on)
And there ain't no going back, and I can't get over that
So Im sitting right here, sitting right here to staaay (staaaay)
I ain't going awaay
Wishing upon a star, let me say a prayer
My knees bent im on the ground, hands in the air
Mr. Officer, I swear that I wasn't there
But fit the description because the clothes that I wear?
Thought we supposed to equal but this ain't even fair
Throw us in front of the judge, he givng the chair
Take us off of the streets, nobody would care
So scared, that I won't see this time come next year
Tired of seeing my people die left and right
My problem with the justice sysytem, something isn't right
Back us up in a conrer, we got no choice to fight
Here to take a stand, but really just wanna take a flight
Back, to a place that I can home
To a place where I know I belong
Like Mc Lyte said in her song
Keep going and keep on keep keeping on
Still waiting for the day that I will be amazed
Let's make history, but first we gotta turn the page
Cuz all this hope will never be the same
I'm here forever, forever I remain
I know you won't miss me when I'm gone awaaay (gone away, gone away)
So Imma live on and fight another daaaay (Imma live on)
And there ain't no going back, and I can't get over that
So Im sitting right here, sitting right here to staaay (staaaay)
I ain't going awaay
Funny how times changed, but still we haven't grown
Hating on another race, shit I don't condone
Ain't no time to be violent, we gotta get our own
Call ourself united but really we just a broken home
Not only bout' Black lives, but they matter too
Imagaine if you had to walk a mile in my shoes
Imagine taking percaution in eveything you do
Thinking like you know our struggle, but you ain't got a clue
Shit it only takes an apple with a bad seed
To have em throw a bunch of shade at your whole team
Ya whole family, whole race, and yah whole dreams
The whole city, whole country, yeah the whole thing
So when they hit you turbulance better hold on
Cuz now shits getting uglier than the o-zone
Oscar Grant, Trey Martin thery did em so wrong
What happened to America's dream that we was sold on
It's like we burning in flames soon to be destroyed
The higher ups is looking at us, they ain't even nnoyed'
How is all of this pain suppsed to bring joy
For that empty feeling inside, I'm here to fill the void
I know you won't miss me when I'm gone awaaay (gone away, gone away)
So Imma live on and fight another daaaay (Imma live on)
And there ain't no going back, and I can't get over that
So Im sitting right here, sitting right here to staaay (staaaay)
I ain't going awaay
