Judah Hex - Bystanders lyrics

[Verse 1: Klover] This is the tale of a black man God damn I can't Sit back and break these handcuffs off my right hand The institution that created confusion It didn't matter when the CO spit in my pudding There's these codes that come with freedom you wouldn't know Cause you in the streets, packing heat, hotter than a beach Do it for your fam even if you know you can't You like the star in the sky waiting for you chance To shine bright Live in the lime life Grab my deuce deuce from the poor to a porsche life What it is when your nights like this I can't roll my spliff cause I'm locked like smith [Hook: Klover (x2)] Still got brothers on the block Screaming f** the cops Let off shots Won't stop until I'm in the box This that real for real He could k** At any minute I'm just tryna let my family win it [Verse 2: Indigo Misstress] I'm a revolutionary so my life is kind of scary Wake up in a cell on a daily Feeling wary Can't be thinking really clearly so my mind's off track Tryna write a track but the pen done cracked Try to keep my sanity but I done snapped Claustrophobic Trapped in two places at a time and no one knows it God opened a door, Satan closed it He'll take away the key to the cell And leave you in hell But you can't take away my bars Behind these bars Homie I got scars under these scars I been out here, ha! Fighting for the cause 47 years, got hit with a charge Ever since I've been planning my escape I gotta be invisible to chase I gotta pull a micro prison break At the company to break Now the guards is on my back tryna get me to break Ain't no going back, no wiping the slate Feel like I'm running out of time so lets cut to the chase Before your existence I erase Solitary Confinement Is the only place where your mind is replaced So I'm popin off That's right I'm popin off So I'm popin off That's right I'm popin off [Hook (x2)] [Verse 3: King Gisa] I wanna live a better life I wanna live a better life I wanna live a better life I wanna live in a better world Tonight And I know I'm never gonna see it in my lifetime f**it I'm a do it so I see it in my lifeline People want change but be screaming in the sidelines Driving into traffic and I'm pa**ing every stop sign Crashing into pigs And mis informed kids Put your gun down homie is this how you wanna live? Naw homie Naw homie I'm seeing what you doing But don't see what you proving You write a facebook status But that don't really do sh** They take away my actions And that's why we been losing Preaching stop the k**ing And now watch them start the shooting Have you even asked yourself What the f** have I been doing? You say you love your culture, but really just abuse it But really just abuse it Lemme guess, you gonna blame it on the music? Record me I'm dying and ya'll don't even do sh** The cops wanna help me, stop playing like you stupid Just watch me go lifeless and preach stop the violence Camera's don't do sh** if you don't open up your eyelids [Hook] Still got brothers on the block Screaming f** the cops Let off shots Won't stop until I'm in the box (Open up your eyelids) This that real for real He could k** At any minute I'm just tryna let my family win it
