Time To Listen

Yeah
They waitin' on us
Let’s give them what they want
Look
Everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be a nigga
Well, it’s time to be a nigga right now
Who gon' say it?
Who gon' be it?
There’s a difference right now
You ain’t black, shut up
This your time to listen right now
Said everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be a nigga
Well, it’s time to be a nigga right now
Who gon' say it?
Who gon' be it?
There’s a difference right now
You ain’t black, shut up
This your time to listen right now
I done been up in the cuffs
Had my face all in the ground
And people looked us in the face, said we the biggest gang now
I wish that shit was a lie
I wish I ain’t have to cry
I wish, fuck wishin', this generation’s ready to die
'Cause the system been broke
My people been broke too
Trump want us to vote when the popular vote was not you
Look me in the face and say I’m lyin', say that’s not true
I ain’t here to speak no prophecy, just stop callin' this democracy
The people chose
Y’all said no and did y’all thang
Now police exposed, bigger guns and they don’t even bang
I’m in a different mode, like black on black, could never change
'Cause same way they did Malcolm X, they did Martin Luther King
Stop askin' for peace
It ain’t comin', they keep bringin' rings
So we back in the streets
They keep killin', they don’t feel our pain
What’s after the beef?
I can’t call it, I don’t know the future
I had to come speak 'cause pain at this level, I’m too used to
I just wanna live
Shouldn’t need permission for that
Shouldn’t need a stick 'cause I’m black
Price got his kids in the back
Police don’t care about none of it if you black and they mad
So now it’s fuck the world like Pac
If they get hit, that’s they bad
Now I ain’t promotin' violence
But I ain’t promotin' silence
They spent two weeks in black shoes, now everybody’s a tyrant
This shit was here before me, I don’t think it’ll stop
So don’t try to say I incited this 'til y’all arrest them cops because
Everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be a nigga
Well, it’s time to be a nigga right now
Who gon' say it?
Who gon' be it?
There’s a difference right now
You ain’t black, shut up
This your time to listen right now
Said everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be a nigga
Well, it’s time to be a nigga right now
Who gon' say it?
Who gon' be it?
There’s a difference right now
You ain’t black, shut up
This your time to listen right now
Everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be one
The pain left me numb and we scream out defund
'Cause a blind man can see the cops don’t need guns
Leave out the house lookin' like Amaud Arbery, they just wanna see me run
I leave out the house lookin' like Robert Fuller, damn, they just wanna see me
hung
I seen it before like a rerun
Pay taxes for them, we need a refund
It’s gone always be separation
Until my people get reparations
Big lump sums, a couple reservations
Price came to rewrite the declarations
I been had my fist in the air for years so be clear this ain’t a decoration
Economically cheated, we could never be even
When I leave out the house, I’m competin' with people just like me or racist
policemen
They stopped George from breathin'
They keepin' us under they knees, see the levels I’m teachin'
Givin' us Biden or Trump is like tellin' the people to vote for a devil or demon
Gotta build our own parties, we can’t wait for a sorry
Gotta switch out our minds from thinkin' like Martin Luther to more like Marcus
Garvey
And remember the time when they burned down Black Wall Street so we gotta build
our own army
It’s all good while they wearin' our clothes
Yeezys on deck, they rippin' our flows
But when we at war they ready to go 'cause
Everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be a nigga
Well, it’s time to be a nigga right now
Who gon' say it?
Who gon' be it?
There’s a difference right now
You ain’t black, shut up
This your time to listen right now
Said everybody wanna be a nigga 'til it’s time to be a nigga
Well, it’s time to be a nigga right now
Who gon' say it?
Who gon' be it?
There’s a difference right now
You ain’t black, shut up
This your time to listen right now
