Sandra Bland
We ain't free
We ain't free
We ain't free to do
The same things that you do
That ain't usually
We ain't free to do the same things
My people been through heartache pain
I wish we were all one in the same
I love when when my people scream George name
It make me feel like things gon change
My people just wanna be free
Don't wanna be shackled up or given a second degree
I wonder where Sandra would be
If those cops just let her go free
For u-turn?
Come on for a u-turn?
I done seen a lot worse
They catch us and they kill us it's confirmed
They treat us like animals
Who got heart burn
Heart burn
That ain't none of ya concern
400 years later and it's like we still cursed
A change gon come
We gon conquer
We ain't free but we wanna be
We grew up 2 blocks over just a couple streets
We grew up different completely
Some of us grew up with mouths to feed
Just the cards that we dealt
As soon as we come in our presence felt
As soon as we come out the woom it's like doom
And all people do is look at us and assume
Like I wanted pick out our family's tombs
Cuz there ain't no place for us in this world
All because yaw got diamonds, pearls
Old money new money and golden curls
I ain't one to discriminate
I ain't one of those people that love hate
Our people been put through the storm and rain
then It becomes a generational chain
More Things get passed down than money
Everything ain't all sugar and honey
That's why I laugh when white people look at me funny
Cuz you got us all wrong
we the nicest people til you treat us funny
We ain't free
We ain't free to do
The same things that you do
That ain't usually
We ain't free to do the same things
My people been through heartache pain
I wish we were all one in the same
I love when when my people scream George name
It make me feel like things gon change
My people just wanna be free
Don't wanna be shackled up or given a second degree
I wonder where Sandra would be
If those cops just let her go free
For u-turn?
Come on for a u-turn?
I done seen a lot worse
They catch us and they kill us it's confirmed
They treat us like animals
Who got heart burn
Heart burn
That ain't none of ya concern
400 years later and it's like we still cursed
A change gon come
We gon conquer
We ain't free but we wanna be
We grew up 2 blocks over just a couple streets
We grew up different completely
Some of us grew up with mouths to feed
Just the cards that we dealt
As soon as we come in our presence felt
As soon as we come out the woom it's like doom
And all people do is look at us and assume
Like I wanted pick out our family's tombs
Cuz there ain't no place for us in this world
All because yaw got diamonds, pearls
Old money new money and golden curls
I ain't one to discriminate
I ain't one of those people that love hate
Our people been put through the storm and rain
then It becomes a generational chain
More Things get passed down than money
Everything ain't all sugar and honey
That's why I laugh when white people look at me funny
Cuz you got us all wrong
we the nicest people til you treat us funny
