Change
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on this silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
Nations dividing
From the top of hill
I yell
Letting my guts spill out
Telling the same stories
The new reports about
But I'm in the playing field
Watching families break
Casket drops
Oh my God it has to stop
Babies growing up
Mothers in jail
The systems fucked up
Sending Niggas through hell
People scared of the blue
Screaming don't shoot as they pull you
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on the silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
The system's failing the hood that I'm in
Growing up on the better side of the tracks
Didn't immune me to the violence
I lost family and friends
In the blink of an eye
I was only 16
Had no more tears to cry
Senseless insensitivity
Troubled
Mislead teens
Doing unreal things
Causing unreal pain
Two lives ruined
From one mind
And a split-second decision
Two Mom's suffering
One in the grave
And one facing life in prison
It's a revolving
Evolving
Unsolved issue
So what do we do?
You blame them
And they blame you
Finger pointing
Never facing the fact
Baby boy is gone
It's no bringing him back
So, we just shit the fuck up
Bring down the cap
Silence is here
And life goes on
Just like that
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on the silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
I'm ready for a change Who's behind me
Martin marched with millions
Life ended behind a gun
His people took him out
Another song unsung
If there's ever a doubt
Find the source
No remorse
Filling minds
With stupidity
Brings darkness
Destruction
And negativity
Inspiration birthed in the bellies of babies
Once society eats them up
They ain't inspired shit lately
Can't live in fear
Gotta walk upright
Sometimes it takes one man
To make a change
Rearrange
Motivate
Get some shit right
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on the silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
Nations dividing
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on the silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
The system's failing the hood that I'm in
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on the silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
I'm ready for a change Who's behind me
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on this silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
Nations dividing
From the top of hill
I yell
Letting my guts spill out
Telling the same stories
The new reports about
But I'm in the playing field
Watching families break
Casket drops
Oh my God it has to stop
Babies growing up
Mothers in jail
The systems fucked up
Sending Niggas through hell
People scared of the blue
Screaming don't shoot as they pull you
Bridging the gap
Stop the violence
Putting a cap on the silence
Number of deaths constantly rising
The system's failing the hood that I'm in
Growing up on the better side of the tracks
Didn't immune me to the violence
