God forbid something happens and I get shot
I hope and pray it's in USA and the trigger man is a cop
I think if that's how the shit went down, I'd end up saving a lot
Of time and money, not having to ask if I'm gonna make it or not
'Cause I know they train well and they don't miss
Known to empty that whole clip
They don't even get not time, like they was living before Christ
Anybody else notice how these days been dividing us?
Human don't value human life
I thought God was inside of us
Eric Garner, Mike Brown, Trayvon, Troy Davis
RIP
Still can't believe people say this nation no longer racist
And believe I'm still hesitant to even open this can of worms
When I can get away with white privilege
My mother never gonna get her turn
Curly hair, never gave it perm
Got a little color from my mother's side
Introduce her to a group of friends and then they ask me
if she really mine
When we was living in Tampa
I think I was around the age of 3
People looked at her like they wanted to hang her from the nearest tree

[chorus x 2]
But we free, but we free
They keep telling us that we're free
When we get on that computer or we watching tv
Yeah we free, yeah we free
They keep telling us that we free
Free to live until they kill us and that's all we'll every be

[Verse 2]

God forbid something happens and I catch a couple bullets
I hope the person shooting me is a maniac when he pull it
You know? I mean the type who probably gonna shoot his ex
then go out and kill a couple of the boys in blue even though
they both innocent men
Like, I mean someone who is claiming he is out for revenge
and because of it, hurting us all
When really he just a criminal who's sick in the head
Don't give a shit about the law
don't represent any cause
Telling himself that he's noble and willing to die
When all he doing is propagating death and suffering
Making a family cry.
Rest in peace to the officers saturday night
Rest in peace to the kids in the halls of Peshawar
Why it seem we living in the darkest of times?
How a person kill another person and write it off?
What is it gonna take for the world to change?
What is it gonna take for us to be free?
What is it gonna take for the world to change?
How do we keep our history from being the same?
