Black life in America, ain't shit you could compare to this
All these fucking obstacles, we gotta be prepared for it
Yeah, sometimes we make it out, but you don't know how rare it is
Won't let you downplay our story, we control our narrative

Make America great again man when was this shit great for us?
Never has this fucked up nation not been ran by racist fucks
White folks tryna embrace our culture why they ain't embracing us?
Tryna tell us how to handle pain when they enraging us

They say they fear for the life
How they think we fucking feel
Praying I don't get pulled over when I get behind the wheel
Scared to grab license and registration shit might get me killed
How the fuck we disrespected in the land we fucking built

We telling them that we can't breathe and they acting like they can't hear it
Every time I see that shit on TV my eyes getting teary
Cause I know it could be me or be my bro that's what I'm fearing
Take my bro you won't just see my pain I'll make you fucking feel it

I ain't tryna hear all that I'm sorry for your loss and shit
My bond w my niggas priceless they gon pay that cost for it
I'm tired of redundant speeches cut all of that talking shit
Protests like some marathons how long we gotta walk for this?

They say if we just comply then maybe shit won't be so bad
Those same ppl throw a fucking fit you tell them wear a mask
White kids shoot up schools with rifles but somehow they get a pass
All I'm armed w is some candy and I get shot in my back

When will it ever be the day we finally see something change
They can't make us work for them so they put us in cuffs and chains
Still got legal slavery they lock you up and take your name
Now they call you inmate and they make you work and not get paid

Then when you finly get out you get parole or probation
They won't let you leave your city stuck in the same situation
Ain't no job gon hire you cause you a risk that ain't worth taking
But you need money for food and rent so laws you can't help breaking

Label us criminals we ain't do shit to earn that title
They the ones for centuries been putting us through the same cycle
Then they got some nerve tryna call these fucked up states united
That's some bullshit and they know it treating us just like their rivals

They say that they don't see color
Bitch all you just said is you don't recognize or empathize with all our struggles
They deny white privilege
When was the last time you got pulled over and you questioned if your life was finished
They say all lives matter
How the fuck could that be true when prejudice against my kind is such a pattern
We ain't ever letting up
We gon vote out all these racists bitches starting from the local level up

Black life in America, ain't shit you could compare to this
All these fucking obstacles, we gotta be prepared for it
Yeah, sometimes we make it out, but you don't know how rare it is
Won't let you downplay our story, we control our narrative

Make America great again man when this shit great for us?
Never has this fucked up nation not been ran by racist fucks
White folks tryna embrace our culture why they ain't embracing us?
They ain't gon be happy till we spew out all this rage in us
