Joey Bada$$ (joey Bada**) - AMERIKKKAN IDOL lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, uh, uh Turn the music up in the headphones Watch me get gone Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [Verse 1] Amerikkkan I don’t want hand vibe I want my hand on my rifle I’m aiming at my rival, sure to leave him dead on arrival They say it’s all about survival never lacking the vitals So I k** and k** again, mister give a revival I’m coming for the title game, but she throwing you topper Last n***a who tried to foul now facin’ a trial I’mma be here for a while, gettin’ richie like Lionel Now she all up in denial because she gettin’ it down While I’m only gettin’ better so she back on my D now I wanna be down but she denounced I got my shot and made it, bounce Now you tryna rebound I’m living in the now While the future figure me out, told mommy pick a place and we out Cause Bed Stuy a little unsafe for me now That’s why I keep the .40 loaded with no safety around Never thought I’d have to hold it, I’m just holding it down Protect my neck and my crown, patrol throughout the town And they judging because my skin color is brown And for that, they wanna leave me dead in the ground And have the nerve to blame it all on my background Sorry white Amerikkka but I’m about to black out Got a message for the world and I won’t back out So turn the [?] out I’m about to spazz out Watch out, another n***a runnin’ in the White House But I won’t stop till this whole sh** painted in all black And we on top, because my people been painted before crack Media’s got this whole thing tinted, it’s all fat Feeding you lies like this whole thing wasn’t built on our backs Assimilate our history, then made it a mystery Now they all inherit the, bittersweet victory Look at what they did to me, can I get a witness please? Justice never served reparations never sent to me It’s clear who the enemy, they declare war on the enemy Assa**inate my character, buryin’ my entity But they can’t k** my energy, so when it’s said and done they forever gon’ remember me The f** is you tellin’ me? f** is you tellin’ me? Way more than a celebrity And f** white supremacy [Hook] I’m out for Dead presidents that represent me Dead f**ing presidents that represent me I’m out for dead presidents that represent me Because I’ve never known a live one that represent me I’m out for dead presidents that represent me Dead f**ing presidents that represent me Because I’ve never known a live one that represent me [Refrain 1] No contest, can’t f** with the congress Me and my n***as going off like bomb threats No contest, can’t f** with the congress Me and my n***as going off like bomb threats Me and my n***as going off like bomb threats Me and my n***as going off like bomb threats Me and my n***as going off [Verse 2] This that Bada$$-a**ination Topic of conversation, my proclamation to the nation and its congregation Been making observations like its my occupation Debating speculation like it ain’t just second nature Thou shall love thy neighbor, don’t let that n***a hate you ‘Cause he know where you lay up, when it’s karma time to pay up Climb the ladder of success I’m steady on my way though Devising plans while you sleepin’ I’m just tryna stay woke [Refrain 2] You leave me no choice, I’m about to bring noise Got to fill this void, I got to be the voice Yeah yeah yeah I said leave me no choice, about to bring noise Got to fill this void, I got to be the voice [Verse 3] What the government is doing to our people is downright evil but not surprising, that’s for certain Under the conflict of propaganda, I believe simply trying to slander Start a Civil War within the USA amongst black and white and those elite They are simply pushing us to our limit so that we can all get together and get with it They want us to rebel, so that it makes easier for them to k** us and put us in jails Alton Sterlings are happening every day in this country and around the world The scary part, boys and girls, is most of these stories don’t make it to the news and reach ma** consciousness It is for sure time that we as a people stand up for acknowledgement and accomplishment of what we call human rights It is time to rebel, better yet, raise hell I just want everyone to be cautious about how they go about it Because this is all part of the government’s plan and what they been plottin’ They’re literally begging for this to happen, so they can k** us off using uprising and rebellion as an excuse in a timely fashion The cancerous foods, the chemical warfare, economic suffering is not working fast enough There are many steps ahead of us and manifesting the future that they want We have to work together, not only rattling them on a physical plane but to outsmart them on an intellectual mental level the same thing As black men, I think our gangs need to do a better job at protecting us, the people, our communities And not a**isting in destroying them brutally It’s time to even the score ‘Cause who do we call when the police break the law We are so quick to pick up a gun and k** one another But not quick enough to pick it up and protect each other The code words to k**in’ a black man by police is “He’s got a gun” Damned if he do, damned if he don’t, damned if he runs Or what about them, them murderers got it We need solutions, you better start plotting now It’s always been clear that they don’t value our lives My people been suffering way too long, and I’m tired of singing the same old song People acting like this sh** isn’t happening, it’s downright wrong Justice won’t be served by a hashtag, and that’s the very reason I ask that What are we to do? We’re scattered around With no clue of this ugly truth All we know is who they ridiculed and who gets minisculed Time to wake the f** up and do our own research And not form opinions based on just what we’ve heard Ameri-K-K-K-a is force feeding you lies down your throats with a silver spoon And eventually, we’ll all be doomed Real, real, real soon
