Black in Amerikkka
Why do you kill us?
Why is the sun not showing on my side of town?
Yo Marc I got more to say
Give me that bomb beat so I can speak on the plight that Black people face today
Jordan Peele gave us get out US
Maybe he was tryna warn us something
An I say Trump ignorance giving black people foreign allies
Trust me it's strength in numbers
I'm tired of seeing Black Kings and Black Queens turned against one another
Only come together when they kill us or something
Check it, I'm reading an article at this very moment by Gary Younge
Its titled what Black America means to Europe
Read it, teach the children while they young
It's no coincidence they say peaceful protest because they own a piece of this land
Meanwhile ain't no peace on our side so realize what's being said
When a business lose money because of riots it makes em scared
When we threaten their ability to be comfortable that's when white people stand
Make em jump
We all have a role in the revaluation
They asked Martin why he had children protesting, what was they solution?
They wanted peaceful protest then killed Dr King so keep going
I was watching the news a few days ago I think it was CNN
This uncle Tom negro called us thugs wish I remembered his name
He edumucated but don't know where he originated from
The Black man is God and we all know where he going
Oh should I chill? Should I stay silent? And not kneel?
Not go to a nearest target and show you what happens when steel meets steel?
There's an invisible contract we all have and it's constantly broken
So why shouldn't I show up at your house and show you how it feels to be
Black in America
Black in America
Black in America
Even my homie Marc don't get a break
You cool, beats fire but I'm about to say something that a make you red in the face
We can't let white people remain comfortable not even an ounce
Because my homie Marc still comfortable when he leaving his house
Again check it, Marc let me know once you feel uncomfortable
We may need you to get us in the door and show em what's really possible
Oh should I chill? Should I stay silent? And not kneel?
Should I not mention Rodney King? I won't forget Emmett Till
And my Latin Hispanic brothers and sisters are you not with me?
Heard a podcast 75 percent bubbled white on the US census
C'mon, Black, Brown, Yellow, Red they want us all gone
Don't put the bullet in a gun when it's gone be pointed to your own
It's strength in numbers
Pride an stereotypes aside we need to walk together
No I don't promote violence but I'm not gone remain settle
White American, really think, when you feel threatened by another country
What do you do to protect your peace?
Or maybe we need to show you just how it feels to be
Black in America
Black in America
Black in America
Why is the sun not showing on my side of town?
