Trey Coachman - If I Die Young lyrics

[Chorus:The Band Perry Sample] If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in a river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song [Verse 1:] Born into this world With my skin completion Makes it almost impossible for me to reach perfection Yes, people will be against me, but who will forget me Who I trust; I see why people hate people If I'm infected who cares to give me chemo? Look Trayvon is gone 3 letters less that would be me I jump these d**h goals that are given out so freely Blinded by the naïve and brainwashed from the TV Put those guns down, dispose of that dope Break up gangs so we all can come together to see hope Stereotypes is the reason for me being stopped by the po-po I'm black not ghetto; I'm a pretty nice fellow To white neighbors I say bye and hello Mellow is an attitude to ease off uncomfortable arrangements Hands in sight no need for probable cause and containment Civil Rights Movement seems ancient in newly sprung up entertainment Yet problems coexist, the likely hood is I'll fall under the influence Of S.A.D. stuff nether me or my parents would give permission I set those arguments aside, even if that's my characters base I release optimism whenever I walk into a place [Chorus] [Verse 2:] I'm so blessed, I thank for who stayed around So hectic moments I almost forgot oh rodents My birthday comes up so fast and the same thing goes by We all thank the lord I'm fine and staying alive With no drive-bys or hammer swings to my sides All started since I was born down in Texas So young and reckless Some of my old actions could of put me upon Craigslist I've been dismissed before I stepped in But I didn't take the sins only picked the alternative route However if this world today can't consume this Trey I pray that my soul will life off to the next one the very best way For my people Even the ones who rejected me Because they cemented the question, I ask myself every sunset Why can people be isolated by the same people? Who determines my faith from a scale or chart? And whenever will we return the lost meaning of equal? An alpha male in the heart, no brain, enough muscles and weapons to stop a runaway train Is that description insane? That's what I would pertain If that day I choose to smoke with the bad gangs Na Man The best decision I ever had made [Chorus]
