Lyrics
In the news every night, hear them talking bout the anthems knees and flags Rappers talking bout Jordan’s on they feet with the bags We talking bout Blacks cop violence and the poor They talking bout the Dow Jones S&P score We talking proletariat, workers and their rights We talking bout Ferguson after they murdered mike We talking bout Freddie Gray, Philando and Browder Trevon, Sandra bland, Eric Garner, Breonna They talking PS5’s we talking health care Mass incarceration too many of us in jail hеre They talking Tekashi. whoеver else, got paperwork We talking bout dead end jobs that barely pay to work We talking bout career politicians who keep running Soon as you hold on them accountable they keep running They talking bout opioid, Percocets, Fentalyn We talking bout systematic oppression that’s preventing you From reaching your potential and beyond the street tenements Humans over numbers you can keep all your percentages Protecting our women and more facts, less flash And make sure that the banker got my dough when the check cash… be watchful of the Smoke screen veil on ya eyes That preventing to you see that devil in disguise Peace sign to my people still fist in the sky No left, no right people on the same side Be watchful of the smoke screen Veil on ya eyes That preventing to you see that devil in disguise Peace sign to my people still fist in the sky No left, no right people on the same side No left, no right people on the same side No left, no right people on the same side Politically I’m Cornell more than Kanye West But still I can enjoy his art and I wish him all the best Truthfully take Fred Hampton over O.J. Simpson Cause my brain wasn’t wired just to obey systems Dave Chappell, George Carlin when I riding on Harlem Feel the soul of Marcus Garvey pan-African talking Langston Hughes any day over Terry Crews Candace Owens with her weaponized vocabulary used I don’t do the news but if I do it’s on “Tube” “Tube” got some garbage too so I gotta pick and choose I don’t Alex Jones or any of those dudes You can catch produce section organic foods If you want an honest answer, I rather say the truth I don’t like being as*h**e though it’s not really my mood it’s People over corporate, people over wars People over oil, rock with people on tours Facts over fiction and facts over your narrative It’s defund the prisons and police that’s imperative I can listen to drill but I ain’t with the beefing Rather celebrate the fact ghetto youth is still breathing... Gotta peep the Smoke screen veil on ya eyes That preventing to you see that devil in disguise Peace sign to my people still fist in the sky No left, no right people on the same side Be watchful of the smoke screen Veil on ya eyes That preventing to you see that devil in disguise Peace sign to my people still fist in the sky No left, no right people on the same side No left, no right people on the same side No left, no right people on the same side
