brittney chantele - pipeline lyrics
[hook]
it’s a pipeline to prison
i am a witness
yes as a teacher
first hand i’ve seen it
hard work doesn’t always work
they wanna make you do time
do time
it’s a pipeline to prison
i am a witness
yes as a teacher
first hand i’ve seen it
hard work doesn’t always work
they wanna make you do time
do time
[verse]
it’s hard to out shine what they make to seem the brightest
we know that they are biased
based on level of lightness
aclu say we in a crisis
but only dead black lives is what gets the hashtags ignited
fist is in a tightness
cause we are made reliant
on the very people oppressing our people
i’ve been trying to teach my students
that their feelings are valid
the road to healing isn’t rapid
this trauma shouldn’t have happened
and i’m here to help guide them
to the path
so they can heal
i’m not just cheering on the bleachers
where are the other teachers?
y’all call yourself leaders
time to make the kids believers
[hook]
it’s a pipeline to prison
i am a witness
yes as a teacher
first hand i’ve seen it
hard work doesn’t always work
they wanna make you do time
do time
it’s a pipeline to prison
i am a witness
yes as a teacher
first hand i’ve seen it
hard work doesn’t always work
they wanna make you do time
do time
[hook]
it’s a pipeline to prison
i am a witness
yes as a teacher
first hand i’ve seen it
hard work doesn’t always work
they wanna make you do time
do time
it’s a pipeline to prison
i am a witness
yes as a teacher
first hand i’ve seen it
hard work doesn’t always work
they wanna make you do time
do time
