Pray for Buffalo
Righteous
Fuck going on out here man
Somebody gotta say something
Fuck it, Imma say something
Something gotta give tho
Ay what the fuck just happened in Buffalo? Premeditated genocide
That's what it was, and that's the only way it should be recognized
I bet he plead insanity, narcissism gets weaponized
Don't talk to me about mental illness, I've been desensitized
Enough's enough, I have no interest in tryna empathize
They hate us now, they hated us then, it can't be rectified
Since the beginning of time, we've been jeopardized
So yes this is a fuckin hate crime, make sure that's emphasized
They get a slap on the wrist and they penalize us
To the furthest extent, drop us in prison and hope we never rise up
Put guns and drugs in the hood then blame us whenever crime's up
We ain't ask for none of that shit, don't think we ever signed up
Even on TV, in a good light, you'll seldom find us
But when it's drama and fighting, that's when they televise us
I swear they go out of their way to bestialize us
Do everything to keep us down, somehow still threatened by us
It's clear, they don't really want us around
Distance ain't enough, shit now they hunting us down
Driving 200 miles to neighborhoods and gunning us down
With a rifle and magazine that hold dozens of rounds
Roberta Drury, Margus Morrison, Andre Mackneil
Katherine Massey, Pearl Young, Ruth Whitfield
Aaron Salter, Heyward Patterson, Geraldine Talley
And Celestine Chaney, my condolences to your family
