Speak Out

We done seen it all occur so many years
Lot of blood a lot of sweat a lot of tears
Idk what but it's something gotta give
Can't sit back we gotta change the way we live

They brought us all on a boat
Not for vacation but incarceration of freedom and all of our hope
People be talkin but don't ever listen then they take it all as a joke
By far the realist song I ever wrote feel like President Maw you should vote
Turn on the tv and I get the mopes the USA ain't what I thought it would be
We hella gifted they treat us like ornaments hanging us up onnour family trees
I've had enough and bout ready to leave, but if we don't fight where the hell ima go
Gotta teach all of our youngins the history so when they start peeping they seen it befo
I ain't write this so you'd call me the goat
I just put how I feel on the mic for the folks
Now the police den bit off more than they can chew
That don't mean every officer out here should choke
Fabolous told me dat you gotta breathe
2 And then a 3 still his knee on his throat
Everytime one of our kind on the street they not doing enough then they doing the most
How in the hell is he shivering heated my heart done turned cold
But my blood over heating
They killing our people it's all for one reason
If you wear this skin they assume you a heathen
They killin us off like it was open season
It feel like they try to arrest for breathing
The land of the free I must not know the meaning
I'm from the East but I bang wit da west since
I'm black they assume I'm a blood or crypt
Little do they know I'm young, educated and motivated and was blessed with a gift
Painting a picture thru scripture then sending it out via message like it was a GIF
AC had told me to keep it unfiltered JG recorded me laying the Riffs
I love my ppl I cannot neglect it
We done way too much to not be well respected
So fight for your rights even when it get hectic
I'm Mawty Maw I'm approving this message
How many schools gon put truth in the lessons
They turn us in but they need the correction
Complying to evil all cause of complexion
Ain't no one to call when our folk need protection
I'm tryna givem all something to read about
BLM ain't just a trend you should tweet about
Fill up the streets til they can't even see the route
All these black lives that our folk rip about
To say the least
It ain't no way I could faithfully say Rest In Peace
Knowing they died how they died and they killers still roaming the streets
Like they ain't deceased
Sit down and think on it that's when it sting
Can't treat it like it's just a regular thing
My dream came to life now I live like a King
Shout Martin Luther I know I'm a king
Quit Tellin the youth day it's all bout chaching
The facts in your face check ya google or bing
Ali wasn't rockin he left out the ring
Lift every voice and sing!

Let freedom ring
First it was cotton but now it's the cotton we rockin they selling us dreams
We steady plotting on how we could stoppem but overlook so many things
Doing so much to fit in like consumers when really we're Kings and Queens
Do y'all really know what that means?
We done seen it all occur so many years
Lot of blood a lot of sweat a lot of tears
Idk what but it's something gotta give
Can't sit back we gotta change the way we live
