King Yella - Black Lives Matter lyrics

[Hook] I do this for my people, live life like a seagull The blacks and the whites, ain't none of us equal I'm out here trying to chase it, do this for my fam Everyday I'm counting bands, y'all don't understand The whites k**ing blacks, this sh**'s f**ed up Police brutality, this sh** f**ed up sh** ain't equal they ain't give a f** They just trying to k** us, they gonna hang us up [Verse] All this black on black crime is f**ed up The white man the real opp, they got us f**ed up I'll never be a statistic to this f**ing system I swear to God, I do it for my kids, my brothers and sisters I swear to God, I put my hand to the sky I'mma hold it down, n***a, I'mma change the whole Chi This sh** crazy, they really got us f**ed up All the GDs, all the BDs, all the Vice Lords, Stones We gonna get along Go against the real hate, and all this KKK? I swear to God I hang they a**, lay them on their a** And I'mma hold it down, I'm the king in my city And I earned the crown They got us f**ed up for real, got us going crazy Little kids, young as hell, steady having babies They put us in the projects, I'm like our d**h is waiting Segregated the whole city so we can't get along Open your eyes, and look, learn and listen It got us f**ed up living in a world of penitentiary I remember when I caught my case They shot at me, booked me, and sent my a** upstate [Hook] [Outro] Yeah, man, this deep from the heart, man. I just want to say black lives matter, like, I know I ain't the perfect guy. I been through it all, I done got into it with black people, but that's all they got us around so... but, either you gonna get older and wise up and realize, man, this black on black crime is a something these people got in our heads. They got us all in one area so we can k** each other. The whole city so segregated in Chicago, and I'm quite sure other cities is too. But if we can put the gang to the side, and come together as one, we'll take over. Black lives matter, man, black power, man, all that, man... King Yella
