Murder is murder
Imma pray for yo city
Walk beside you with solidarity
It's not time to turn up but throw them fists up
One was kneeling to protest for the dead
Other done used it to take his breath
They be happy when he ain't on his feet
They be happy when he can't breath
For his life the black man gotta plead
So much time, there's help they need
By God, I wish they stop killing my brothers
It's the Lucifer they see in the color
One was kneeling to protest for the dead
Other done used it to take his breath
They be happy when he ain't on his feet
They be happy when he can't breath
For his life the black man gotta plead
So much time, there's help they need
By God, I wish they stop killing my brothers
It's the Lucifer they see in the color
King went for peace and he died of regicide
X want guns and he died of homicide
Who really knows, which side
Just don't know what to decide
They said it hot in here
But it's the anger out there
They thought the control was fear
But we got a scarecrow in here
The ones who want justice got a heart like Aunt Jemima
Police be wantin' us to act like some mines
Blow us up till we die
Tryna frame us as killers
But they all kill one of us
We can't even take the bus
One was kneeling to protest for the dead
Other done used it to take his breath
They be happy when he ain't on his feet
They be happy when he can't breath
For his life the black man gotta plead
So much time, there's help they need
By God, I wish they stop killing my brothers
It's the Lucifer they see in the color
One was kneeling to protest for the dead
Other done used it to take his breath
They be happy when he ain't on his feet
They be happy when he can't breath
For his life the black man gotta plead
So much time, there's help they need
By God, I wish they stop killing my brothers
It's the Lucifer they see in the color
In Philly they dress for success
In LA the crips ain't shed blood
In DC they ain't wasting time off rip
I want to make a change
Screw all the hate
They tryna put us in chains
They ain't gon get us slain
Stay in yo lane
You makin' all these brothers fly in a plane
They just got the wrong fame
They had a dream but it was detained
I felt the pain
Don't wanna see bullets rain
Justice fenna take the reigns
I throw my fist up for the dead ones
One was kneeling to protest for the dead
Other done used it to take his breath
They be happy when he ain't on his feet
They be happy when he can't breath
For his life the black man gotta plead
So much time, there's help they need
By God, I wish they stop killing my brothers
It's the Lucifer they see in the color
One was kneeling to protest for the dead
Other done used it to take his breath
They be happy when he ain't on his feet
They be happy when he can't breath
For his life the black man gotta plead
So much time, there's help they need
By God, I wish they stop killing my brothers
It's the Lucifer they see in the color
