Life. My Life. What’s it worth to you?
Macy’s or Human Life?
Cop car or Human Life?
Rolex or Human Life?
You can fix a Target but you can't bring a person back to life.
My Life. What’s it worth to you?
Is it worth more than new shoes and property?
I thought it was but clearly I was wrong.
How do we still need to explain
This system’s put in place since the plantations
We’ve been showing so much restraint
Half of ya’ll have never seen true pain
I can’t breathe
Please believe me
How do you sleep with this blood on your hands?

They kill us dead in the street
Outside so everyone sees
They stand and watch while we bleed
Black with a capital B
I know you wanted the badge just to feel like a big man
But that’s never enough
Now you’re holding a gun so you can do what you want
You want to use it on us
You’ll point it straight a kid cause you’re afraid of his skin
When he ain't done nothing
I see the fear in your eyes I feel the hate in your heart
murders part of the job
FUCK 12
Had to burn it all down just to be heard
But we still ain't heard
Had to burn it all down that’s what we’ve learned
But they still ain't learned

Again and again
It comes as no surprise
Abuse of power comes as no surprise
Lies. Inciting fear in our minds by spreading lies
It's all propaganda
Politician's agendas
We’re never given straight answers
They want to keep us silent
So we don’t notice the truth
They're escalating the violence
They want us all to forget
But that can’t happen again
Again and again it’s the same shit again and again
Can’t sit around and wait for something to change
