Maya the Mayan - Will They (feat. Dreamer, Jkron & D-Day) Lyrics

Kicking at the sidewalk
Listening to small talk
I'm wondering if dad will come home
They're not understanding
That laws are out patrolling
And I don't wanna be left alone

They're after my dad and my brother
They're after my friends and my lover
Just because they have a skin like no other
American they've ever seen
They're after my faith and my culture
They're after my language and structure
Just because we have a skin of different color
They're saying we cannot be free
But will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)
Will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)

Blocking out the hate noise
They're saying men are black boys
And the system is the reason we're here
Between the sounds of laughter
If all lives truly matter then
Tell me why we're drowning in fear

They're after my dad and my brother
They're after my friends and my lover
Just because they have a skin like no other
American they've ever seen
They're after my faith and my culture
They're after my language and structure
Just because we have a skin of different color
They're saying we cannot be free
But will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)
Will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)

Dios cuídame, líbrame de la tentación
Explíquense somebody please give me a reason that we keep fighting
Know there's people scared to leave their homes
'Cause their skin's a different color
What is going on
America the free, you're trying to enslave
I love my country but it's lands are filled with snakes
We're not brave we're acting weak, terrified of the peace
Do you see what we bleed
We're equal, 'kay kapeesh
Land of dreams and opportunity
No difference between you and me
Only difference I could ever see's the color green
Know what I mean
This shall also pass
Rainstorm never lasts
Let the rainbow cut to black
Pledge allegiance to the flag

It's hard just to think about ignoring the hate
More people throwing some shade and throw dirt on my name
It don't matter whether I'm asleep or awake
And can we change it through all of the music we trying to make
Man, they raising up all of the stakes, so what more of this shit can we take
Nowadays I'm watching my back, we got minorities dying for snacks
People be killed for just rocking some black
They taking power we taking it back
And man they look at you whack
Like I shouldn't be wearing a bag
Why do they look at me like I am mad
Me, why they suspicious of that
'Cause people be killing for everything, any car, any cash, any bling
Why do they think we're so threatening
We never really did anything
Woke ever since I've been seventeen
I see this shit over everything
We're the victims of all of this treachery
But we diamonds at heart, we the wedding rings

We took one step forward and two steps to the right
Bombs dropped, shots fired, no clear view in sight
Lies and propaganda trying to divide
Look into my eyes we're the same you and I
Human kind are losing sight of the forest
The lights shone bright but the shadow lay dormant
Then blew it's lid and showed up an ugly tyrant
The lunatics are taking over the asylum
Perspective subjective of leftist progressives
The hatred of self is subconscious reflections
Investing our fate that the leaders protect
We're accepting our role in the fate we've elected

They're after my dad and my brother
They're after my friends and my lover
Just because they have a skin like no other
American they've ever seen
They're after my faith and my culture
They're after my language and structure
Just because we have a skin of different color
They're saying we cannot be free
But will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)
Will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)
Will they come after me
(Only a matter of time)
Will they, will they
Will they come after me
