Black Matters (feat. West Boogie)
In order for you and me to devise some kind of method or strategy
To offset some of the events or repetition of the events that have taken place here
Some of this oppression and exploitation away from us
Or aside from us is come together against the common enemy
Cried tears writing this in my head
Sad due to our skin tone they want us all dead
Hard to look ahead
Crooked feds
Flip flopping mayor in my hometown
I wanna life I don't wanna go home now
My sisters and brothers they've been shot down because we black
Careless how these politicians act
Until they need them votes election time
Affecting minds
The system all poison
White nationalist enjoying intimidation
Not employing discrimination
Let's destroy our way of thinking
Stop killing that sync in
It's time to let each other live
No justice no peace
No more us against us no more beef
Let's us eat
Let us feast together
Black businesses
Showing love when we greet each other vision it
Slavery is what Prison is
Don't become another statistic
Realize how important your vision is
Just listen
They thought they'd kill us but they got it all wrong
Together we are strong
They thought they'd kill us but they got it all wrong
Together we are strong
They thought they'd kill us but they got it all wrong
Together we are strong
They thought they'd kill us but they got it all wrong
Together we are strong
It goes the blacker the berry
The Harder the hard
They can shoot one nigga but they can't take assault
And I'm the wrong nigga they going stop at the store
Cause ain't no pulling cameras out
My Niggas pull them Blammers out
Tell ya what my life about
I was 16 contemplating on my momma's couch
Sell a Oz buy a strap and dip on out
Hold on that's my mother and them drugs got her tripping now
You feel it now
Blacker than blue Blacker than road rage
Blacker than buying shoes on my off days
Um that's two more scoops in the Kool-Aid
I'm black that mean we mix the Henny with the D'USSE
I tell my son about the color of his skin
And never underestimate the power from within
Damn the world crazy we just let it spin
And everyday we celebrate cause we finna win
And I'm gone
They thought they'd kill us but they got it all wrong
Together we are strong
Just uh see for yourself
Where you could hear for yourself
And then think for yourself
Then You'd be in a better position to make an Intelligent judgement for yourself
But if you fall in the habit of listening to what others say about something or someone
Or reading what someone else has written about someone
Somebody Could uh Confuse you and misuse you
To offset some of the events or repetition of the events that have taken place here
Some of this oppression and exploitation away from us
Or aside from us is come together against the common enemy
Cried tears writing this in my head
Sad due to our skin tone they want us all dead
Hard to look ahead
Crooked feds
Flip flopping mayor in my hometown
I wanna life I don't wanna go home now
My sisters and brothers they've been shot down because we black
