D.Moore - DYHWTS?2 lyrics

INTRO: Yeah This goes out To all the ppl we lost out here in da struggle As we struggle to find peace Somehow we die in a struggle wit police Its hard to stand up For what we believe When we got our hands up N they still shoot us So we stand here With no future Uh huh Yeah Yeah! #They want us to get down n play dead ...So never ask me did I hear what they said They lied VERSE: Yeah! What they said... They said we wouldn't make it Yet we made it Like J said Styles said Sheek said #We gon make it Yup we gots this I'm Kickin down the door #Like big Or pickin the locks If they don't let us in Like pac said I'm locked in #...But Not jail That ca never be me #Either way My Mind'll remain free I got a Skeleton key So I ca open any door That opportunity knocks If not.. I'd wild out like the lox I don't do this for props I do this for u, me n my peeps Since they just wanna silence us See we dont make a peep #Shhh Not a word They wanna shut us up N shut us out Turn us 'gainst ourselves Hope we cancel each other out Chrome and blak nines In the hands of lost souls One track minds Wit k** or be k**ed motives We Programmed to die Propositioned by the cops To keep our hands high Enslaved by the man They bleed our land dry Then they put us in a box Its a plot Instead of thinkin "we all we got" Its His or mine Then they turn around N call us clowns When we Resort to Black on black crime But ...They said we wouldn't make it past 25 Well The jokes on they We still alive ...Word ye True words Tha song plays On repeat in my mind On every birthday So we Pop botttles Get high in celebration So many fixings Got damn we made it Uh My pops gone I do this for him Carry on tradition Through music for him Yo pops We aiight Things are gettin better too #True ..But there could neva b another YOU! We all dodged the statepen While contemplating Ways to get richer This The life of made men Trynto beat these odds In this world of farce They try to steer us off course... #Of course! Still I remain Altho it hurts Thingsll never be da same I Walk but never trip down memory lane Hay! Yeah! #They want us to get down n play dead ...So never ask me did I hear what they said #They lied #Hold up f** the whole system The jury that acquit em The judge that banged his gavel N the lying a** witnesses f** the law makers I done read thru all the court papers So f**k that D A Grand jury They are all racists Yeah! #They want us to get down n play dead ...So never ask me did I hear what they said #they lied They broke that mans spine Man he died for no reason Then called us animals and thugs When we burn down the scene and Conveniently left out It was peaceful on the scene til The whites called us n***as And that car hit that teen Huh......... Wheres our help? We oughta burn down the precinct And police ourselves They pulled that sister over Said she failed to make a signal Set her bail at 5 stacks #Then She end up dead up in the precinct Tried to say she k**ed herself But for what? Just a ticket? And We suppose to buy that? #Not a chance These crackers wicked They say slaverys abolished Thats a lie Lets b honest #We wearing The Same old shoes Nuttin new Just some polish They done told us some bs This the land of the free Then sold us sum bs N charged us a fee And I can't calm down I got a son hes only 2 My nephews only 3 U can't explain it to me How imma explain it to them? When we dying for free Screaming Hands up Dont shoot! I can't breathe! #They want us to get down n play dead Soooo Never ask me did I hear what they said They lied! They want us to get down n play dead Soooo Never ask me did I hear what they said They lied! They want us to get down n play dead Soooo Never ask me did I hear what they said They lied!
