Blackout

And when you are willing and not afraid anymore to pay the price for freedom
Dont let this white man tell you that violence is wrong
Every damn thing that he got he got it by being violent
Killing people, raping and, robbing and, murdering hes doing it as we speak

Infuriated as is no Farrakhan for me
Kill us for walking in the street so I hardly speak
And walking home should be no problem for me
Until I see them now Im thinking will I be a victim of the police
Victim of the police think about how that sounds
Say you posed to protect and serve but why you firing rounds
Way too many peaceful protests the riots in town
We built this country so we burning it down feel me
And people wanting me to join the service nahh
If blacks uniting then Im in that for certain
Cause I aint fighting for no country that aint fighting for me
Or should I say for a country fighting my family tree
So all my brothers and sisters its time to take what was promised
Nahh fuck that 40 and a mule leave all that shit for the Amish
We need some change in this piece we need some peace in this piece
And the police up off our backs or else we takin the streets

They have made us little sheep that they can walk over and run over
But when we decide its over and we should make that decision its over
We're not taking it anymore and we can not pass on to another generation
The legacy of our cowardess when we know the problem and wont move
To erase the problem
