Lyrics
[Brittany Howard] My heroes are black My heroes are black [Johnny Venus] America the brutalizer Takin' out her pain on us but who knows why? Probably 'cause we fly 'Cause we can work magic with the wink of an eye When I dance sparks fly, now watch me guide Phenomenal minds, phenomenal kinds The beautiful ones, a sign of the times To laugh is a threat, to breathe is a crime I'm born by a God, was forged in the fire My career soars while black bodies hit the floor I feel guilt, shame, I could always do some more Are words enough? Does the storytelling lighten the burden up? Marching and fist bumpin' Generational fire, got the whole city burnin' We will not be denied You ain't get the memo that we ain't to be fucked with Fighters returned, defyin' the words of coroners Statues will fall, ancestors watchin', enjoyin' us Reset the balance, my tongue calice from school at Alice Talkin' racist whack shit Livin' in her Wonderland bubble, bubblin' up, damn (Damn) You searchin' for the problems, shawty, that's it O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at mee (Goat head in the back) O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me (Woo, uh-uh) O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me (Goat head in the back) [Doctur Dot] Slave blood, king's blood Mothership, beamed up Everything we dreamed of, it's finally us Damn it's good, from your average hood I'd rather be overpaid then understood Only God can judge, me and my accomplices (Failin' to comply) Got my weapon, that's my right, let's be heavily supplied I ain't shit but a reflection of the times to the naked eyes So even when I'm sleep, I look like something to be threatened by? This is for the fingertips dipped in red dust on the city bus No option for givin' up I'm the Sun, son, so the natural look be stickin' up Sunday brunch with Bun, I ain't eat much but I listened up Soak some wisdom up, rolled a bigger blunt Laugh to keep from tearin' up Had to fuck the city up to make 'em take us serious Don't pick up your cell, 12, wet you like amphibian They put us all through Hell and tell us God work so mysterious O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me (Goat head in the back) O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me (Goat head in the back) [Brittany Howard] My heroes are black (Guns aimin' at me) (My heroes are black) (O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me) (O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me) (O say, can you see? Guns aimin' at me)
