Papoose - Change Gon' Come (50 Shots) lyrics

[Intro] R.I.P. to Sean Bell R.I.P. to Kathryn Johnston R.I.P. to Amadou Diallo The list goes on Change gon' come [Hook] It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will (Change gon' come!) [Verse 1] No justice, no peace Another black man shot dead in the streets Make the whole hood feel sad, it's sadness But we feel mad, it's madness Mike Oliver said his gun jammed, he the main one 12 year veteran and don't know how to use a gun, think we dumb? If ya clips was loaded to the top And your gun jammed, how ya fire 31 shots? Say you shot at the man cause you thought he was strapped But you k**ed a man cause you thought he was shooting back Black America, what type of garbage is that? The police academy arming these fools with gats If your reason was you thought he carry a gun That mean you k**ed him for nothing, cause he ain't have one I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired son Hope change get here before the revolution come! [Hook] It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will (Change gon' come!) [Verse 2] Patrick Lynch is an a**hole, he siding with the cops He said they wasn't wrong for firin' all 'em shots He said if they felt a threat they 'posed to pop And they should continue shooting until the threat stop The nerve he got, another word said They should continue shooting until Sean Bell was dead Bloomberg spoke, but we expect him to He said 50 shots was unacceptable And he said nobody know how to feel and be another race They don't respect that, they call it haemoth disgrace Press conference in front of everybody He responded faster than his predecessor Mayor Giuliani Some say he spoke it illogically He got some better manners but let's see if we get some better policy Don't fall for it, it's all tricknology Hope the change get here, before they try to body me [Hook] It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will (Change gon' come!) [Verse 3] The law states a cop is not permitted to shoot at a moving car It don't make a difference if it's coming straight at him, cause if they shoot the driver a 4000 pound car could cause more drama But when I heard Charles Barron speak, I believe He said, "If we gotta bleed, then others gotta bleed" Five cops placed on administrative leave But they murdered a father, left behind two seeds Why was the cops in the club, drinkin' a bottle? Why was the 41 shots shot at Diallo? John Podhoretz from the New York Post Wanna know why Bloomberg and Al Sharpton still close I read his article, he question it Why was Bloomberg surrounded by African-Americans? I guess the loss of a life was a Mayg Called Sharpton a race-hating-cop-hater [*50 shots*] *Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang* *Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang* *Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang* *Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang* *Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang*
