Kaïn - Black Panther Party lyrics

[HOOK: KAIN] I'm trynna keep these demons off of my back But they ain't letting up They got a hold on a n***a take control of a n***a when you giving up I gotta fight it… Cuz if I go then we all gone the day I go my whole team gone and ain't nothing they can do about it [VERSE 1: KAIN] Look! I pulled up to the valet They like who's this n***a in a benz just a n***a and some friends Still a n***a if I pulled up in Hyundai I wonder what would Walter Scott say If he could tell his story I bet, he'd tell us how the cops ain't sh** And how the media portrays our people we the bad guys but they all so evil Damn, I wonder what Trayvon would tell me If I was walking through a gated community and if a cracka seen me lookin black in a hoodie Or my hoodie all black I wonder what they would do to me Where did we go?! I'll ask mike brown when I see him I bet he would know Is it crazy that a n***a can't walk to the store and feel safe going home I ain't never seen nothing like this, I just reach into my pocket start to typing up a list Of the sh** that I feel but no I can't share They done told us all that it's here, and the system used it ain't fair.... If it was, then a cracker shooting up a movie theatre would get a worse sentence than a n***a sellin d** But the money ain't goin to the crackers so they give him 30 years and the shooter gets love Not love like a regular sentence but love cause he never gets a regular sentence We all plead crazy they look at his history Then they swear he was just young and senseless Defenseless even though he had a family When half black men don't even know they daddy They moms can't raise them cause they so emotional Then we grow up angry and unapproachable….now They wonder why we all ain't sociable? You can't breath when society's haunting you So please don't take this wrong how I'm approaching you… Sir I just want to talk I'm not approaching you Please don't take this wrong how I'm approaching you… Look I just wanna talk I'm not approaching you BANG! [HOOK] I'm trynna keep these demons off of my back But they ain't letting up They got a hold on a n***a take control of a n***a when you giving up I gotta fight it… Cuz if I go then we all gone the day I go my whole team gone and ain't nothing they can do about it [VERSE 2: KAIN] I tried to tell them we're the most hated They don't care about us cause our work is done We built white houses for the white powers now the white powers own our houses please stand up Damn, we can't stand up… We're too busy trying to put ourselves on When some sh** go down instead of trying to stop it we're just reaching for our phones? What the f** is going on?! n***a world star don't pay you…and that Instagram it won't change you I pull up to the valet… They like who's this n***a in a benz just a n***a and some friends still a n***a if I pull up in a Hyundai They don't get it I pull up to the valet… They like who's this n***a in a benz just a n***a and some friends still a n***a if I pull up in a Hyundai.. They gone look at you the same way… (x2)
