We declare our right on this earth
To be a man, to be a human being
To be given the rights of a human being
In this society, on this earth, in this day
(Reparations, reparations)
Which we intend to bring into existence
By any means necessary
Where my forty acres and a mule?
Where my education
We gon need some better schools
Where my reparations, f*ck these crackers
F*ck the news off the slave ship we was in
Having the blues
Ridin through the west like I'm Huey P newton
LA riots, Rodney King
And my people out here lootin'
Now I put my hands up fore
These crackers go to shootin'
Better living, we improving
They gon try to stop the movement
Yellow 'rari like I'm in the projects
Yellin "Free Larry Hoover", keeping it direct
Get static, throw the phone
We'll get back in contact
Front line, I'm in that all black
Ready for combat
Murder row, we did it befo'
At that corner sto'
Gavel in my life, did it twice
I'll do tenfold
Cracker, you gon see me on that
TV like I'm Jenny Jones
Living right and wrong
Real life with my mic on (Streets)
I'm tired of being oppressed
Nobody gives a f*ck about a bulletproof vest
Every time a man wanna go outside
They wanna give the evil eye
What about a young nigga's civil rights?
It really shouldn't matter if you
Black or if you white
A cop might kill yo ass cuz you black
Because the way you sag your pants or
The way you wear your hat
(Get down on the ground, now)
How can you say I got freedom?
The jail cell is where they house
And then they leave em
Where the f*ck, is all my pride?
Niggas growing up traumatized
It's all for everybody, every color
All my sisters, and my brothers
I need y'all to keep the
Squares out the circle
So they won't hurt you
The whole world full of fiends
Sometimes I wake up, but it's not a dream
They said I'm bitchin'
But I never been side-switchin
Now I gotta fight the inside out
No, I'm not a snitch and not a big mouth
(Big Mouth)
I understand I gotta work with that
But I got the world on my back
Now ask yourself who the f*ckin' man
At 13, I already had a plan
At 12 years old, got my first job
Jest Jewels, nigga, ask me if I'm lyin'
And I sacrifice every day, I risk my life
It's a challenge but I can handle it
