Ain't No Love (feat. Tommy Quest)
We scream the Revolution won't be televised
But yet somehow our struggle is commercialized
We live with an anger that's hard to verbalize
They give you guns and drugs and then watch the rate of the murders rise
That's how they try to convince you Black folks are villainous
But every time I turn on the news, police is killing us
Doctors kill our women, the system corrupt the children
Then send em all off to prison, while sitting back making millions
They say that's it's a new day, this slavery by a new name
And if it ain't a cell, then debt is gon be your new chains
I stay focused on two things, my paper and my freedom
And not too long ago without papers, Black folks was lynched
So forgive if I'm not convinced that this world ain't structured against me
Or those who look like me, we saw what they did to Haiti
Politics is a game and we ain't winning it yet
People losing their lives while Congress arguing stimulus checks
Ain't no love in the heart of the wicked
Til the lord come calling, I'll be screaming fuck the system
These crooked politicians everyday they getting richer
People struggling tryna get it
Families still getting evicted
Ain't no love in the heart of the wicked
Til the lord come calling, I'll be screaming fuck the system
These crooked politicians everyday they getting richer
People struggling tryna get it
Families still getting evicted
Yo I'm tolerating this pain yea it's simple and plain
It's fuck 12 until they properly trained
They killed Rashad at the Wendy's on my way home from work
My mama told me that these pigs love to play in the dirt
It's like they wanna see die from the pumps
You trained a man for 2 months and now you hand him a gun
And now this outta shape chump, shoot a man on the run
It got me scared to have a daughter look how Breonna was done
Shot Duante, cop thought it was a taser or sum
Too many names to remember, I'm still singing these songs
I'm still waiting on rights, I'm still protesting wrongs
I'm still a nigga when I get pulled over, they wanna see if I got drugs or a gun
Wanna know where I'm headed, Where am I coming from
Who was I kicking it with and can I please remain calm
Took everything from our culture but label us some robbers
I pray to my father cause my aunt and uncle will rob ya
Ain't no love in the heart of the wicked
Til the lord come calling, I'll be screaming fuck the system
These crooked politicians everyday they getting richer
People struggling tryna get it
Families still getting evicted
Ain't no love in the heart of the wicked
Til the lord come calling, I'll be screaming fuck the system
These crooked politicians everyday they getting richer
People struggling tryna get it
Families still getting evicted
But yet somehow our struggle is commercialized
We live with an anger that's hard to verbalize

These crooked politicians everyday they getting richer
People struggling tryna get it
Families still getting evicted
