| I realize, I am the hopeful black woman who was denied her right to vote
|
| I am the caring white supporter killed on the front lines of freedom
|
| I am the unarmed black kid who maybe needed a hand, but instead was given a
|
| bullet
|
| I am the two fallen police officers murdered in the line of duty
|
| We look to the future and we want to create a better world
|
| Now is the time to change the world
|
| God bless America, home of the brave
|
| We ain’t picking cotton no more but we’re still slaves
|
| They talk about peace, but how that’s gon' be
|
| When police leaving young niggas dead in the street
|
| When niggas start shooting back, how they gon' act
|
| And they wonder why a nigga stay strapped
|
| They wonder why we trap, for real, real niggas don’t rat
|
| Black man, born with a target on his back
|
| Standing with his hands up, screaming «Don't shoot!»
|
| Biggest gang in America, the boys in blue
|
| Now we gon' ride, now we gon' loot
|
| Cause that black man could have been me or you
|
| Don’t shoot!
|
| Don’t shoot!
|
| Don’t shoot!
|
| Don’t shoot!
|
| Don’t shoot!
|
| Fuck the police, like Cube & Eazy-E
|
| A nigga pay taxes and still ain’t free
|
| We just trying to get rich and ball out
|
| Looks like the pigs trying to take us all out
|
| We don’t get justice, we just get handcuffed
|
| They don’t want to see a nigga get his bands up
|
| Crooked judge just handing out sentences
|
| Cause we’re guilty until proven innocent
|
| Standing with our hands up, screaming «Don't shoot!»
|
| Biggest gang in America, the boys in blue
|
| Damn right we gon' ride and we gon' loot
|
| Cause that dead black man could have been close to you |
