America
This America
Where police they'll kill you
With they knee on ya neck
While you gasp
And take ya last breath
This America
When you Black
It ain't safe
Not even for the niggas in a wraith
No no no no no
This America
We living in the Civil Rights New Testament
The Police kill me get to burning shit
This America
The land of the free
Yet we still lack unity
America
Shouldn't fear for my life when I get pulled over
Ion got no drugs
Threw away the baking soda
Used to play wit that Roc
Call me young Hova
Now I gotta deal with these cops
Pray ion get slumped over
Don't just stand there and watch
And get it on Video
That'll crush my mama soul
Really tryna make it home
Was just tryna leave the store
Go home & smoke some Doja
Man my life a roller coaster
Granny singing We Shall Overcome
But we still going under
This America
Where police they'll kill you
With they knee on ya neck
While you gasp
And take ya last breath
This America
When you Black
It ain't safe
Not even for the niggas in a wraith
No no no no no
This America
We living in the Civil Rights New Testament
The Police kill me get to burning shit
This America
The land of the free
Yet we still lack unity
America
America
Where police they'll kill you
With they knee on ya neck
While you gasp
And take ya last breath
This America
When you Black
It ain't safe
Not even for the niggas in a wraith
No no no no no
This America
We living in the Civil Rights New Testament
The Police kill me get to burning shit
This America
The land of the free
Yet we still lack unity
America
Shouldn't fear for my life when I get pulled over
Ion got no drugs
Threw away the baking soda
Used to play wit that Roc
Call me young Hova
Now I gotta deal with these cops
Pray ion get slumped over
Don't just stand there and watch
And get it on Video
That'll crush my mama soul
Really tryna make it home
Was just tryna leave the store
Go home & smoke some Doja
Man my life a roller coaster
Granny singing We Shall Overcome
But we still going under
This America
Where police they'll kill you
With they knee on ya neck
While you gasp
And take ya last breath
This America
When you Black
It ain't safe
Not even for the niggas in a wraith
No no no no no
This America
We living in the Civil Rights New Testament
The Police kill me get to burning shit
This America
The land of the free
Yet we still lack unity
America
America
