[Intro: Protesters]
It is our duty to fight for our freedom!
It is our duty to fight for our freedom!
It is our duty to win!
It is our duty to win!
We must love and support each other!
We must love and support each other!
We got nothin' to lose but those damn chains!
We got nothin' to lose but those damn chains!
[Verse 1: BriRealiLL]
The system ain't never have love for me bro like why they always gotta f** wit me?
Cause you young & your black maybe how you sag your pants or the way you wear your hat
It has nothin' to do with how you act they shoot when they no matter where you at
Sellin' CD's or if a baby in the back first line of defense you was reachin' for the strap
Ain't that some sh** I apologize if this sounds blasphemous
But f** prayin' cause they gun sprayin' we did a lot of talkin' but now we done playin
Before I trust a cop I'd trust Satan f** it I'll go to Hell keep the bus waitin'
Man I swear this sh** keep me frustrated so I'll be waitin' with a loaded clip extra strap on the hip bro told me keep this sh** lit
How police make me nervous in my own home make pops go & get ID like we did somethin' wrong line busy when I'm gettin' God on the phone
We in pajamas why try to harm us I'm being more than honest we're literally targets
And all we did was be born all we did was give life if they k** me 'fore the feat is filled I pray I live twice
20 16 still fightin' for civil rights & you have the nerve to tell me this the land of the free?
Far as I can see y'all ain't did sh** for me way sh** goin I'm probably dead by next week
If it was up to them they'd pack us back on the fleet with our backs to the racks like a package of meat
I just want my 40 acres how savage of me?
They burn crosses on our skin and claim we're overreactin'
[Reprise: Protester]
Boycott mane!
Money!
Money man!
That's the only thing these b**hes understand mane!
That's the only thing that's gonna get a n***a voice heard!
Until that
n***a been prayin', n***as been prayin' since slavery
n***as been prayin' since slavery singin' Negro Spirituals and sh**!
That sh** ain't did nothin' for a n***a mane!
f** you mean? Man it's time for action mane!
And you ain't with that sh**? Get the f** out the way!
Keep your f**in' opinion to yourself!
We want actions out here man, straight up mane
We tired mane, we tired mane, my f**in' people tired!
[Verse 2: BriRealiLL ]
The f** is we doin' my people are cryin' we tired of shootin's
Y'all wanna riot we fire & lootin' in your neighborhoods since you think that we're stupid
MLK's dream was not one that's lucid truth is Stacey ain't been the same since she did clueless
Yet she's still clueless they ruthless they're snipin' from roofs then bombin' a body need to know where the proof is
Bringin' up Black on Black crime is dismissive either you with us or you are against us
Ain't no way that you get to play the victim cop catch a case then they're sure to dismiss him
If all lives matter then quit b**hin' Martin had a dream and Malcolm had a vision
20 16 and its still the mission does history repeat itself or am I just trippin'?
Listen
They don't give a f** about us when they tell us meet their violence with love
Cause they still beat us down to the dust like the rose from the concrete we still rise up
Trust
We gotta start doin' for ourselves if they don't wanna help, oh well
Time for the Black Wall Street rebuild 10 Point Program, oh yea
You think you know but you have no idea so keep your ideas to yourself
We're worth over 1 trillion of wealth we gotta spend that amongst ourselves
Hit em where it hurts is the only way to stop it
They don't care about sh** but they pockets
They don't care about sh** but the profit
They don't fear sh** but the Prophets
