Grizzy Wynter - Soul Cry Lyrics

Brothers and sisters
This is worldwide
How many times we have to watch another child die
They put us in the fire now we baptised
Can't shed no tears
So I'll show my how my soul cries

My soul cry- y-y
My brother's die -i-i
Ain't no justice
No peace

We always seek redemption is a system that mistreats us
They take away our hope when they assassinate freedom
They sick us in the ghettos, label us as thugs
But copy our identity cause its everything they want
I almost wish they would call me nigger to my face
Instead you grab your purse scared to look me in my face
The looks in your eyes, mute the words that you say
Bumping our struggle but ignore our voice change
If your a visible minority, especially in the bottom 3
They snuff all the hope you have an give you jail as a destiny
Eventually just a bodies what they'll wanna see, while the media disrespects your legacy
You think your not a bigot cause you smile from ear to ear, behind closed doors your conviction rings clear
Used to call me light now I'm too black and they backing up
Point. Blank. Period. Are you fighting when we've had enough

I'm sick to death of you Harvey dent f*cks, the system built against us, best believe I knuckle up
I remember walking home and they'd yell nigga as they drive by
Tossing bottles out playing some one hit the black guy
Resentment breeds your jealousy, I didn't ask for you to envy me, so you get a badge and kill my possibilities
Can't get a job if you keep dreadlocks but white girls rock rows and y'all treat em like gods?
Dating a different race to prove your not racist
But treat them like there less then you when your around white faces
Create the war on drugs to incarcerate the poor, but legalize trees so corporate takes a lil more
All I see is hypocrisy while we struggle in this economy
We already know your intentions so really there's nothing left to see
I won't be satisfied until the system burns in front of me
So one day my son will really have equality
