Lock Up - Blacktop Lyrics

This shouldn't be one of them things that just happens
Talk about it for a minute than get lost in the back end
All the silence in the past talking bout all the accidents
This ain't new but now we have a vid that shows what's happening

A man was killed look what that brought
Murdered by a wack cop
Pressure on his neck face pressed into the black top
You actin like you can't stop
It's easy not to act up
I wonder would be different had he been stopped by a black cop

Man this I couldn't believe
Why the f*ck you ain't get up he screaming I can't breath
The whole world took a moment prayed and asked god please
I hope you understand why Kaepernick took that f*ckin knee

Worst part was Floyd wasn't the first case
Worst part was he prolly wasn't the worst case
Worst part that breaks my heart and been tearing us apart
Is you making these people feel like they the worse race

For all the oppressors out today damn look what you done
Take a minute and sit back and think what if that was my son?
Could you imagine the enrage-ment
Or better yet what if it was you on that pavement

The world is crazy right now but without change it won't leave
Shouldn't be based on the race to see if y'all can succeed
Posed to protect and serve but they taking lives like thieves
Seeing all the pain and the stress I feel like I can't breathe

I'm all about equality and I fight for my rights
I've had to stand up a couple times times for myself and fight
I've had enough hardships going on in my life
But I ain't never been pulled over for driving while white
I don't wanna walk out on a stretcher
Weight to hard and to heavy to measure
The world can only take so much pressure
Till than stand strong
Say f*ck the oppressor
