bstar (rapper) - civil war lyrics

Loading...

hook}
as i’m washing all the blood that spilled across the cold tile floor
i try to catch my breath with my back pressed against the bathroom door
and i want to scream so someone hears and then i think what for
cause i’m the only one that can fight, in my own civil war

{verse 1}

2012 i was just a kid, who lived up the street from trayvon the same day that he got k!lled
hoodie and skittles were recovered from the scene, scariest thing is both of us was seventeen

rewind 400 years, captive on a slave+ship, fast forward to now, still dealing with the same s++t!
trying to survive while making words rhyme
in the land of the free, but freedom is a blurred line

half a million in prison, half a million that’s missing, all those fathers and sons, take a second sit back and listen
they sent your daddy up the road, he in the chain gang. call it slavery call it prison it’s the same thing

when police brutality becomes reality, then i’m the casualty of technicality, living with this insanity is my f++king tragedy. i’m on this road alone i’m fighting for my family
as i’m!

{hook repeat}

{verse 2}

with all the change that we’ve been fighting for, we’ve been here before. steady moving forward, we won’t be ignored
for you to change your heart and mind is what we’re asking for, our fight is with the system it’s so f++ked up at its core!

i relive the pain every time i say the names
breonna left a stain, and there’s floyd and mclain. let me hear you say the names, say the names, say the names!  of the ones that were slain, so they don’t die in vain

generation after generation barely in the conversation, my ancestors built a nation that has no appreciation

i kneel on the field you put me on the blacklist, your knee on my neck that’s how you get the black fist!

changing laws is cool and all but it leads to repression, of the hatred for my people that turns into aggression. 

a fight with rubber+bullets it only tears us apart, but we will win this war, when you change your heart!

{hook repeat}
