[ Featuring the Agency ]
Today's another day, my brother passes away
He wasn't on the attack, just breathin' while being black
Cops say they saw somethin', somethin' was really nothin
So on the force they stay, paid leave to go vacay
No who what when where or why'n
My people are dying
Why are you still lying?
Pavement to the grave, you'll always be a slave
Why are we still trying?
Our children won't be goodie, dress suit tie or hoodie
Hands up and keep cool, won't bring them home to you
Raise your voice in their face, they wanna keep you in place
The blue knows that they're wrong, been doin' it for so long
Black souls for sale, they're buyin
My people are dying
Why are you still lying?
Pavement to the grave, you'll always be a slave
Why are we still trying?
You better hope equality is still the goal
The day will come where you take our last soul
Folks ain't gonna tolerate this bs that much more
Justice will get served and those who can't hang get out the door
My people are dying
Why are you still lying?
Pavement to the grave, you'll always be a slave
Why are we still trying?
My people are dying, they'll continue to keep dying
I'm afraid to have a son, cause he'll be gone from your gun
And I'll be the one cryin', while you'll keep on thrivin
My people are dying, my people are dying
