Nubee Mac - Alive (ft. Soul-One) lyrics

[Intro] Welcome to America, land of the free Home of the brave like Atlanta, the peach Where we, the people, can get k**ed by people for free But Monica Lewinksky can get you impeached, don't sleep [Hook](x2) Even the sun goes down, and heroes eventually die But look at me alive (x3) Looking up like "God, will you keep me alive?" They can k** me but my soul never dies So look at me alive [Verse 1: Nubee Mac] Look at me, alive and well Took a while but I'm here, I survived the hell How long will it last? Only time will tell So I ain't buying nun of the dreams you tryna sell And I ain't buying nun of the lies they tryna tell Saying Sandra Bland committed suicide in jail They tryna mask the truth, and disguise themselves But we don't believe you, we know y'all evil Sending prayers to the sky, I'm yelling "God" Take my sins to the gym, let me exorcise Every demon of mine, I'm here to testify And make sure the revolution's gone be televised We got nothing but time, and I'm ahead of my Time, especially when it's time to pen a rhyme Still they label me a thug while I'm a in tie.? That's why I'm finna keep my hood up like it's wintertime [Bridge:] (Soul-One) Lord, Lord, Lord, shine your light on me (Nubee Mac) On me, thoughts stream like Spotify We'll never compromise our bottom lines Pour one like "Lord, why they gotta die?" Now make noise just in case they think you not alive [Hook](x2) [Verse 2: Nubee Mac] Good God, I'ma need me a light They shoot on sight, they don't even read me my rights They k**ing us and we k**ing us So the white man like "oh y'all don't even need me.? Alright.!" We alive but we ain't doing too well Cause no matter where you stationed, everyday is fruitvale But they expect us to act like it's good still Even though, everywhere it's blood spilled Blood in the streets, Blood on the leaves Ain't tryna garner attention, they ain't wanna let him breathe So we finna start a riot if the judge let him free And I swear we coming for blood, when it's done, let him bleed Said suicide then they manipulated the scene Shoot us in our sleep, they really k**ing our dreams It's time for us to wake up and put an end to the schemes They throwing smoke screens, can't you hear our choke, screams.. [Bridge] [Hook](x2) ('Bout time we do a little role call) [Outro] (Where you at? Trayvon Martin, Mike Brown, Freddie Gray, Eric Garner Tamir Rice, Tony Robinson, Sandra Bland, and so many more...) Lord, Lord, Lord, shine your light on me (x4)
