| I pray to God for surveillance
|
| 'Cause it’s been a problem and it’s still a problem
|
| I’ve been thinking about families
|
| No fathers; |
| how they gon' live without them?
|
| And you can’t define them I don’t even want the right to remain silent
|
| In front the tyrant
|
| No real police is gonna shoot a passenger knowing there is a goddamn kid behind
|
| 'em
|
| Who gon' settle with 'em?
|
| Pure evil embedded in 'em
|
| There ain’t nothing but the devil in 'em
|
| And we always the hurt race
|
| If you gonna shoot first then you shouldn’t be a cop in the first place
|
| When it’s the time to create my child what the fuck am I gonna tell my son?
|
| What if he had an emergency and he’s scared to call 9−1-1, what he gonna do?
|
| And he walking on the sidewalk, rainfall with a book bag and an umbrella
|
| Ain’t no amount of hurt you give a lil boy gonna make shit better
|
| And for some reason everything you tell me is an excuse
|
| And for some reason having you on camera ain’t enough proof
|
| If you shoot me and I shoot back how the hell we gonna stay out the pain
|
| If you shoot me and I don’t shoot back they probably say I’m the blame
|
| If you shoot me and I shoot back how the hell we gonna stay out the pain (I
|
| know, I know)
|
| If you shoot me and I shoot back how the hell I’m gonna stay out the rain
|
| If they take my life and I can’t detain
|
| If I take your life and it seem humane
|
| I took off the rope and every single chain
|
| I can’t see my family never, please explain, yeah
|
| If they take my life and I can’t detain
|
| If I take your life and it seem humane
|
| I took off the rope and every single chain
|
| I can’t see my family never, please explain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Everytime I see you now I feel fear, both hands up for a real prayer
|
| You can tell me that you still care, how I tried to run him in a wheelchair
|
| Don’t matter if my hand gotta degree in it, I need my hand to breathe in it
|
| I was told that you got my back, never known there was gonna be a knee in it
|
| Yeah, now that I’m trying to be alert and you looking in the skin but you can’t
|
| see the worth
|
| And they wonder if they days will get better, but nah I see it worse
|
| They want a brown face to avert, take a life and you can’t reimburse
|
| When you see a cop car, man you see a cop car
|
| When I see a cop car, I see a hearse, see the hurt in my eye look
|
| See the hurt in my heart look
|
| See the hurt in the son of a panther
|
| They kill us, we kill them, more definite answer
|
| But more people gonna die cause of this shit, just being realistic
|
| Pure evil walk the Earth everyday and I be checking logistics
|
| If you shoot me and I shoot back how the hell we gonna stay out the pain
|
| If you shoot me and I don’t shoot back they probably say I’m the blame
|
| If you shoot me and I shoot back how the hell we gonna stay out the pain
|
| If you shoot me and I shoot back how the hell I’m gonna stay out the rain
|
| If they take my life and I can’t detain
|
| If I take your life and it seem humane
|
| I took off the rope and every single chain
|
| I can’t see my family never, please explain, yeah
|
| If they take my life and I can’t detain
|
| If I take your life and it seem humane
|
| I took off the rope and every single chain
|

|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain

|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Please stay out the rain, please stay out, please stay out the rain
|
| Should I take this umbrella out of my book bag
|
| Momma should just get soaked in justice, I smell the rain
|
| If I reach for it, then reach for the sky, the outcome is the same
|
| And do my life come second?
|
| With a history book in my hand, why is it to drop my weapon
|
| You under salary 140 hours a week
|
| I’m African-American 'til I’m under six feet
|
| How can I, raise my child under this pouring ass rain
|
| In fear that he’s in fear, and in fear doubting him three
|
| We all see where I’m going with this
|
| And why? |
| Cause you gave me a kiss goodnight
|
| And I know that was a kiss goodbye
|
| Why is your shirt wet, and his shirt dry?
|
| Why is your shirt wet, and his shirt dry?
|
| Why is your shirt wet, and his shirt dry?
|
| Stay out the rain |
