Sundown Town

Tryna get up out the hood he was posted on the block
When they caught his ass they gave him more time than Chauvin got
Welcome to Amerikkka so I ain't ever told a cop
Nothing bout these drug crimes they don't want the dope to stop
They get overtime when them crime rates raise
Shackles on my people and they bind great minds
The price of freedom life they may even pay mine
So I can't do no song with no basic ass rapper
Like I can't take no pictures with no racist ass cracker
They do that to get ahead to me they ass backwards
I keep it to real this may be my last chapter
From the concrete jungle where them gun rounds found
My ancestors made it out them sundown towns
Told em my head heavy can't be uncrowned now
That's what I found out, aye
I ain't never spit a bar on some I found grounds
These was things that I seen as a young wild child
Any day could be ya last so we love out loud
Let that beat breathe
My ancestors survived them night riders
Me I grew up ducking shots from 815 sliders
The whole society is designed to leave us lifeless
It wasn't us who chose violence
I'm from a sundown town
From a, from a sundown town
Sundown town
Where them gun rounds found
Concrete jungle where them gun rounds found
