Man the list goes on... The list goes on

I go to war for my sisters
In plain sight they still oppressed by the system
You call 'em on it, they consider you aggressive
Just one more label that you gotta carry witcha
Society is a joke, there's no equality
There's no code of ethics guiding our economy
If you have to question what that means for you and me
Just ask yourself why are we still viewed as minorities

A better question, why they gentrify our neighborhood
I could understand if it was for the greater good
They push our people out and wonder why statistics rise
Why some would rather steal and rob then work a 9 to 5
In elementary they told us we could be anything
A few years later somehow they shatter your every dream
You stand up for your right they treat you like a criminal
It's all subliminal they never speak on what they mean
I praise my father every day because he made a king
And try to live off principles rigidly biblical
He sent me Tricia, I'm so blessed to have a Kenyan queen
My everything, true love is unequivocal
What's trivial, is how they overlook the social bias
The end result is hatred manifesting deep inside us
That being said, there's one more question that I can't ignore
How can we ever establish a median of trust cause

I go to war for my sisters
In plain sight they still oppressed by the system
You call 'em on it, they consider you aggressive
Just one more label that you gotta carry witcha
Society is a joke, there's no equality
There's no code of ethics guiding our economy
If you have to question what that means for you and me
Just ask yourself why are we still viewed as minorities

Another question, why our protests often turn to riots
It seems the only time they care is when we turn to violence
Our people's hurting getting murdered just because were colored
And these white folks think they're helping by remaining silent
They feed us drugs, we kill each other, then they lock us up
With subtlety they still oppress us, man the jig is up
Our politicians passing laws just to save an image
But without effective change, man our world is
Fill it in with what you want, because you have a voice
Be sure to vote, because it all starts with a simple choice
Through all our pain and all our struggles we remain resilient
Somehow we always find a way to steadily rejoice
I've always wondered how they overlook the social bias
The end result is hatred manifesting deep inside us
That being said, there's one more question that I can't ignore
How can we ever establish a median of trust cause

I go to war for my sisters
In plain sight they still oppressed by the system
You call 'em on it, they consider you aggressive
Just one more label that you gotta carry witcha
Society is a joke, there's no equality
There's no code of ethics guiding our economy
If you have to question what that means for you and me
Just ask yourself why are we still viewed as minorities
