We Wonder (feat. Bryant Curtis, Gil Gatsby, Nine Up & Skill tha Lightmare)

I wonder how it would be
If a woman made as much or even more than me
There's a thing called equality that's been lacking in this world
It is messed up for the '20
That's something I've never understood see
There's many women who's way better than me at what I do
See at the core I'm an engineer in I.T. but look at me
In my eyes a woman is way stronger than me
She was given the greatest ability to bring life in this world
A man couldn't handle that yeah I recognize her
There's no mistake there
Big props to the single mothers out there
I'm a product of one God blessed me with an amazing mother
Yeah one and done (Love you mom)
We've gotta make a change
You hear me things can't remain the same
We need more equality on some many levels it's unfortunate the game
The world plays on women it's so lame
The shit that they deal with every day
As men we need to stand up for our women
And fight this battle with them
Let's go!
Yo, I wonder if my people'll ever get a break
I'm here to give them faith
That Christ can liberate
Will we ever come together and innovate
Or keep filling up the morgue and the prison gates
I wanna be an example than demonstrate
How we can master our emotions and get the cake
And how we can overcome the wicked snake
And be a unit that this system can't penetrate
God said He would deliver us He didn't flake
And we continue to protest and picket hate
They're terrorizing and organ harvesting in our face
We gotta move at a different pace
And be real with that Sandra Bland mugshot picture ain't
It will justify for Philando to get erased
We gotta get prayed up and assimilate
To what the Word of God that's written states

I wonder
I wonder oh
I wonder
I wonder oh

I can wonder but never worry my vision was very blurry
With death in the cemetery was calling to see me buried
Real life no movie no Tyler Perry look cover like carry
Walkin in purpose missionary can't be in a hurry
Face down homie terry living life scary
That weapon formed will leave you Freddy
Yeah Freddy Kruger
Body slam Lex Luger you can see the shooter
Disturbing the peace no looter
So move get out the way
Stand up or get back we are not the same
It's like two different planets I need my space
Can't afford to orbit around and wait
It's like the difference between Saturn and Mars
Is the bars and the rings
It's a champion thing that's who we are
We was born again to win
But once born in sin
It's like a pencil to pen
It's like Chucks to Tims
I wonder if we switch skins walk in each other shoes
Will see life through another lens
Or will we have the same view
Cause everything we know is everything we all knew
Look, I wonder if we really ask
Can you keep on your mask
I'm tryin to live and grow like grass
2020 done took so many lives
I wonder if we can do it again
How many would be alive
Ayo I've been through the fire try to take His name higher
God be the truth and every man be a liar
I live for the Messiah I'm a real soul survivor
I keep it Christ hot then have a voice for the choir
Gotta keep it true for all the kids I inspire
Mortal limelight or headlining on a flyer
God give me strength when I start to get tired
Take over the wheel Imma let You be the driver
It won't profit nothing if I'm the dopest rhymer
And the trumpet blows and you're thrown into the fire
So I take my time when I spit it through the wire
Never will I lose never will I retire
With the mic in hand Imma lead up to Zion
Never compromise no matter how it transpires
Couple 16 vocal tone what they die of
This is Christ era and I crush the empire I wonder
Why we living in bondage
Loading up the revolver
Killing people for dollars
Never facing the problem
Even if its at the altar
Turn your back on even ok partna I wonder
My people been getting slaughtered
As soon as I chose Christ
They labeled you as a target
Souls been getting clapped
Haters been quick to applaud it
Why we choose hell you know Heaven is calling

I wonder wonder wonder
I wonder oh
I wonder wonder wonder
I wonder oh

Give me the loot give me the loot
Y'all say stop looting
But all we try to say is police stop shooting
Don't change the context stick to the narrative
Imperative I'm not speaking Arabic
We want equality more fare policies
Stop the brutality and black fatalities
Stop with the chatter that all lives matter
Yeah that's a fact but let's focus on black
Knee on the neck cop didn't look pressed
He cut off his breath and it lead to his death
For blacks this country has become a danger-field
And it's a shame cause we get no respect
Things look dreary black mommas eyes teary
Shouting getting pulled over is recorded by Siri
Shouldn't have to set a shortcut for that
But we do cause we got caught driving while black
Guilty by design sign of the times
Remove your eyes become color blind
Read between the lines I'm protecting mine
But when did melanin become a crime
If a racist white man drowns in a lake
And a brother pulls him out and lays him on his back
Mouth to mouth CPR resuscitates his life
So glad to be alive he won't care that he's black
I wonder how it would be If my people had more equality
That's black people in case you didn't know
Cause our lives matter too in this country
Too many murders like Mr Aubrey or Breonna Taylor I am so sorry
That is taking so long for justice to be served
That's no excuse believe me I am so tired of living in fear
From those who's job is to protect and serve
Even when I get rolled up on for a ticket
It fries every single nerve
It's messed up when my asthma kicks in I can't literally breathe
Cause I get scared that my life will end
Like Mr George Floyd that couldn't breathe
This needs to end I refuse my life to become a hashtag
Like some of my brothers and sisters
It makes me sad fuck that it makes me mad
This needs to change
I am more than this I am human being like you
But when it comes to sports I am a god
But an ordinary man I am expendable

I wonder wonder wonder
I wonder oh
I wonder wonder wonder
I wonder oh
I wonder wonder wonder
I wonder oh
I wonder wonder wonder
I wonder oh
