Made In War
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
I said I'm broke and
I'm scare with you
I see my inner kid neglected
Life isn't fair nigga
Neither is my skin complexion
Imagine if you get arrested
For something that you ain't do
And everybody know It's true
And the system failed it's youth
And everything they say we is
Is a truth that they wont view
But your dark skinned is
Excuses for them
Looking down at you
Damn damn damn damn
Really wish that he could
Get back to his kid
Remind him who he is
Before its too late
And section eight
He ain't ate decent in about two days
Since the judge went and hit him
With them decades
He's in shock but not really
Seen it coming what could he say
He can't endure a cell for a
Battery charge
This ain't no triple A
Broke my heart when my cousin got
Shot in his back
Got this fear now of being
Shot in my back
My skin is not some clothes that
I can throw up on the rack
If I'm tired of it
Some days like most days
I don't want to be black no no no
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war
Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war
Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
He wasn't there when his family died
Just cry because that's real pain
Living his hell on earth so no
He's not afraid of the real thing
All them years locked up
Really tore his life apart
Ask that man who got that transplant
If god still knows his heart
Growing up quick taught us
Weakness is affectionate
We like seeds we plant seeds
Y'all plant evidence
Little kid in my apartment got
Head shot by mistake
Im eleven viewing the body
Look what they did to youngins face
Because we're traumatized seeing
Folks die up on the daily
Then the cops arrive twenty minutes
Later on occasions
Sometimes hours
Close the casket up
Friends hold him up and
Buy him flowers
Bloodline full of trauma we endure it
Wait pause let me finish
My skin tone unfair who do I
Call to fix the blemish
Passing boats chased by jaws but
I'm swimming
Even a dog gets better privilege
I feel like god hate us blacks
We can't all share his image damn
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war
Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war
Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
Black man trapped in the system Made in war Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
Made in war
Black man trapped in the system Made in war Hope that his family
Recognize him and kiss him maybe
I said I'm broke and
I'm scare with you
