I do this here for my son
What you thought
Mmm
I just hope my son is safe when he grow up
Them cops wild'n they ain't fraid of exposure
Pray for your skin tone and pray for your own
UhHuh
I can feel the anger in my soul
I gotta be the change for him that's the only goal
I think I smell a civil rights movement in the air again
We call it speaking our mind they call it arrogance
That's why them cops grip their waste like I'm a terrorist
And from all of the killings they exposed I need a therapist
I'm feelin' like some white men hate us
The cops even hate us
Our own people hate us boy I gotta change the system
It ain't bout good or bad, it's the colored ones their picking
And you better not cry you'll go from threat to a victim
I hate I gotta come like this
But every black man talk to his son like this
If there ever is a day that he witness it
Let that be the first day that he hear this shit
I'm going through the pain for 'em
Protesting in a rain storm
My feet shackled in this race war
We want everything that we slaved for
Literally
Mmm
I just hope my son is safe when he grow up
Them cops wild'n they ain't fraid of exposure
Pray for your skin tone and pray for your own
UhHuh
I can feel the anger in my soul
I gotta be the change for him that's the only goal
When they start demanding for silence bring more noise
Since when did a Black square represent your voice
As a black nation we heirs to more coins
That's the reason why they cut it from Garner and George Floyd
And to my Black Queens
I can't make this shit up
Why you think they let you get paid more when we split up
There's always less value in a ring than his genes
And there's always less value in a King without his Queen
So you put a patch on your children
Their maskin' their feelings
They ask for their father who ain't around cause you mad and conceal them
The action is chilling
No cap and gown this a gradual killing
The KKK's probably glad that you're willing
News flash their a villain
Our children are lost
Their killing em off
A chilling feeling cause they cool wit it all
Ain't all on you cause men be usually wrong
We hate the system cause it's doing us wrong
With stimulus checks to cover the bond
Mmm
I just hope my son is safe when he grow up
Them cops wild'n they ain't fraid of exposure
Pray for your skin tone and pray for your own
UhHuh
I can feel the anger in my soul
I gotta be the change for him that's the only goal
I just hope my son is safe when he grow up
Pray for your own
UhHuh
I can feel the anger in my soul
I gotta be the change for him that's the only goal
That's the only goal
That's the only goal
That's the only goal
Mmhm
