Fred The Godson - Black Power lyrics

[Hook: Cocoa Sarai] Did you see the blood on the leaves? Did you hear my mother cry? Taking a uniform and a gun and created a genocide Black Lives don't matter, matter, matter at all No they don't matter, matter, but before I go, my lives gon' matter [Verse 1] Four years for our bachelors, what a disaster My ancestors did 40 years for they masters So I have to go after it all before you win tomorrow, you may have to fall This is Martin​, this is Selma Nice weather, sh** karma, the '70s—this is Thelma Good time and deep thought, Malcolm X in his study Streets taught me all about the X, that's why they love me By any means, leather berretta is for Coretta Life's a b**h, f** world peace, I never met her Every lyric delivered in the spirit of Medgar Evers Wish they was here to see Obama, we getting better I'm trying to teach the youth how to play now They still thinkin' Rosa Parks is a playground A black power is hereditary This is February, peace King – God! [Hook] Did you see the blood on the leaves? Did you hear my mother cry? Taking a uniform and a gun and created a genocide? Black Lives don't matter, matter, matter at all No they don't matter, matter, but before I go, my lives gon' matter [Verse 2] Four years for our bachelors My ancestors did 40 years for they masters, what a disaster The Garners, the Mike Browns The pastor on the mic now talking about it right now Congregation domination, should be awarded accommodation Just to calm the nation before we the load guns Cuz when we marchin' it ain't we shall overcome Nah, we ain't comin' in peace We comin' with pieces That young boy rest in pieces, we the rest in peaces Let's do it today St. Louis, let's make it a fiasco Make every cop in the Lou pay Nah, that attack scary Cuz now the iPhones poppin, they don't care if they get a black berry Scared of black power ‘cause it's hereditary This is February, peace King – God! [Hook] I see the blood on the leaves, I heard my mother cry Taking a uniform and a gun, created genocide Black Lives don't matter, matter, matter at all No they don't matter, matter, but before I go, my lives gon' matter [Bridge] My lives gon' matter My lives gon' matter
