Confessions II
First things first rest in peace
Trayvon and many many more
All I could do was just weep knees hit the floor
Hate that we sitting there watching his
Whole spirit leave George Floyd crying to us
Man he couldn't breath couldn't take my eyes off that screen
When that coward bent his knee whole time
Thinking to myself that could've been me
That grown man cried for his momma I felt every scream
Now I'm here crying for you Lord set us free
Candace Owens she gone make me get out of character
Whole lot to say man I'm black in America
The system wasn't meant for us to win it's embarrassing
Land of the free to an extent man they are scared of us
All lives matter correct we never said they didn't
Black lives are oppressed now you Don't care to mention
If All life matters you ain't outraged with us
Cause black lives never really mattered you still lynch us
So that means from the start we were screwed
Born in a society that's built for us to loose
Robbing all the natives cheer Columbus in schools
Dragged us here on boats while you stripped us from our jewels
You showing your privilege Karen and it's bright too
Dim the light some you wanna fight we wanna fight too
We just want equality we ain't seeking revenge
Pay some of the debt off from inherited sins
What up God can I holla at you for a second
You say I'm king but I'm in la living like a peasant
Scrapping for change not enough dough to get me some breakfast
I'm getting restless stress it got me feeling so helpless
You said you'll never leave or desert me you acting like
Casper the friendly ghost I been hurting
All these people believing in me ain't paying the bills
It's getting real and you ain't talking back man what's the deal
Hello can you hear don't know if you even care
Every body panicking now and all you can do is stare
Look you brought me here and I need to pay my shares
I live in Hollywood they charge me to breathe in air
And I'm here right now 2020 supposed to be my year right now
The ball dropped I was in the studio plotting on competition
Put them in the rear right now
Now they wanna talk about a global pandemic
Locked us in the crib now I'm feeling some resentment
Politicians tweeting like these kids in my mentions
And you saying we really gotta vote for these gimmicks
Man I'm in my feelings please heal us this world need prayer
Why it take so long to get justices for Mrs Taylor
Daniel Cameron need to do more to indite her slayers
We might bend a little but they never gonna break us
Hey
Trayvon and many many more
All I could do was just weep knees hit the floor
