No More

Born in the middle of a crack storm
Lil nigga barely 15 with straps on em
To young to cast a vote but got a pack on em
Bands on em, by the rack and fuck tax on em

The weight of wicked worlds lay the backs of em
To young to raise the siblings of crack mother
Undercovers cruise corner live a slave gestapo
So far Ivory Coasting and that old Morocco

How we fall so afar these questions go unanswered
We stepping with devil and he dirty dancing
Pushing poison in the medicine a living cancer
Find the truth observing nature that's the final answer

But vision is the key without the eyes to see
We go astray the night is day and death is life to we
And deep inside his soul he prays to age and grow
Watch his people pass away thinking

I don't wanna die no more, Hey
Lord I don't wanna die no more, Ho
Lord I don't wanna die no more, Hey
Say I don't wanna die no more, Ho
Lord I don't wanna die no more

They been killing us 1000 years
The blood suckers pierced the veins through the tricks and fears
Guess we caught up in the rapture, or the end is near
If we forever live how we gone disappear

I pour a bottle to great ones of ancient days
Help me navigate the maze, I came thru barely grazed
But to suffer is to grow, and so the flesh a cage
Let's continue with story turn another page
Mislead by the deacon
Blood shed by the precinct
Broke Bread never even
It's lead it sinks

We left dead in the streets man
Boy color same as he damn
And now they Rest In Peace him
On t-shirt yelling free him
And they're no one left to teach them

The 80's they delete him
Incarcerate and cheat him
Then gentrified his home and turned his block into a museum
A memory they leave him
He tired of the death and genocide screaming

I don't wanna die no more, Hey
Lord I don't wanna die no more, Ho
Lord I don't wanna die no more, Hey
Say I don't wanna die no more, Ho
Lord I don't wanna die no more
