Gives us better understanding of the real reason we live.
Constantly fighting for change
But the only thing we get in return is dead brothers and overdue bills
Yeah all lives matter so don’t get me wrong
It’s just that the blacks been the ones suffering all along
We Want An Immediate End To
Police Brutality And Murder Of Black People.
The Black Panther 10 point program
Point 7
They say slavery was abolished and that they feel our pain
But it’s all just a scam
Last name Lincoln
First name Abraham
It’s people like him who give us false hope, man damn.
King once said “Be True To What You Said On Paper”
We grow up being taught one thing
Last time I checked we’re all American and I think I’ve found the traitor
That’s a lot to fit on your plate but it’s my job to fill you with knowledge, I’m like a literary waiter
Preaching to the choirs of what’s soon to come, Today is great. But tomorrow will be even greater
Let’s put this on hold, we can talk about this a little later
With liberty and justice for all—wait wait wait, justice for who? You mean our “so called protectors” that are dressed in blue?
Justice is for the ones who infiltrate the minds of my brothers
While being smothered
With hopes and lies
Telling us as each and every day goes by
That we shouldn’t feed into the nonsense and that racism is not true and that slavery was a choice and that we’re bad for being dark And that—
Yeah you know what I’m talking about
You get mad when we speak the truth
But you know—
You been knew
We been suffering for so many years
Black people in chains struggling to pay the bills
Scared to walk through the streets of my hood
We walk in chills
Accused of whistling at some woman
RIP to my boy Emmet Till
I didn’t really know if I should put this down on paper
What would happen if they knew
That bullet would be going through
My skull
My heart
My back
All because the color of my skin is black
I sit back
In silence and never speak unless told to speak
But it’s time for a change
It’s time to get up. Speak up. And follow my dreams.
BLACK LIVES MATTER is what we constantly scream
Whenever the ones that look like us get pinned down to the ground labeled armed and dangerous just because we were born with the skin tone of brown. Walking around the block police fail to hesitate and shoot because he thought it was a glock.
It amazes me how one part of the nation can live until their hair turns gray
But other areas can’t walk out the house without dropping to their knees to pray
Once we die we will see a better day
For christ will soon come again, taking all evil away
