Peace
It's so hard to find some faith when justice lies
Fist in the air, I pray we safe tonight
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
Momma struggled to get a job
to pay for my tuition
School where the teacher didn't like me for my skin complexion
Seen children calling me a nigga
like there's nothing racist
About excluding a person
for something hella basic
Remember walking at the mall
I was like 16
So enthusiastic till a person smiled at my direction
Claimed my demeanor was so similar to apes or monkeys
Wasn't alone, Caucasian friends
ain't even tried to help me
This shit been going on for ages
I ain't even started
How many times I heard them laughing
at my facial features
How many times you want a job and have to switch expressions
To sound acceptable until they see you physically
How many times you find it hard to talk about this subject
And get the all lives matter slavery is over dude
The can I call you my nigga since we are close like that?
The black jokes cause it's funny and hushes down our pain
Well fuck it
I'm taking a stand cause I complied a lot
Laughed at the jokes too many times
fist up and never talk
Never show hatred to my peers don't care about your color
Dedicate my soul on bringing unity In this together
Respect women
Respect human beings for ever
Respect me
My momma, grandma,
my fucking brothers
Respect the culture we bringing
Respect the Love we sharing
Respecte moi, respecte nous
Respecte le monde entier
Black lives matter
It's so hard to find some faith when justice lies
Fist in the air, I pray we safe tonight
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
Fist in the air, I pray we safe tonight
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
Momma struggled to get a job
to pay for my tuition
School where the teacher didn't like me for my skin complexion
Seen children calling me a nigga
like there's nothing racist
About excluding a person

Black lives shedding light
This is a riot
This is a fight
Black lives shedding light
