iso indies - reparations lyrics
[chorus: dillmatic]
things are gettin’ intense, usin’ up my sixth sense
think you had us figured, i can’t use me at your expense
they be on that pretense, we be on some defense
left you in a past tense, you could keep your two cents
i don’t wanna be another target on they hit list
all my people runnin’ ’round the city like some misfits
so i’m steady prayin’ for my brothers like a wish list
cannot trust a soul, they gon’ turn on you the quickest
[verse 1: dillmatic]
d+mn, there’s so much goin’ on in this world we call our home
they’ve been lootin’ and protestin’, tryna get it for our home
ain’t n0body got us like we got us (like we got us)
streets is in a frenzy, you see the riots (see ’em, yeah, you see ’em)
stand up for a cause or you die for one of yours
ain’t no universal laws, they just wanna sabotage
rollin’ with my entourage
jenning tell us, “be safe”
but they got our hands behind us while we down upon our face
it don’t make no sense, no
it feel like a death, nah
how we ‘posed to raise our sons? how we ‘posed to get through?
feelin’ really stressful, years of bein’ dreadful
how could we be careful when we ain’t really cared for?
[verse 2: conchezyout]
therefore, all the youths need a good mentor
yes, lord, all the years, this the sh+t we endured, there’s no cure
all the cops screamin’ f+ckin’ 10+4, welcome [?]
government always tryna censor we at war
yeah, we black, but we called moors
more impor’, all we care about is jordan concors
lootin’ stores, why you takin’ things that’s not yours?
ah, boy, that ain’t no way, yeah, to honor george floyd, stay on point
half america is really unemployed, we annoyed
k!llin’ people, it’s a state of paranoia, can’t avoid it
all these businesses burnt down and destroyed, no insurance
think my people kinda missin’ what’s important, yeah
“stand up for your rights,” yeah, we puttin’ up a fight
they don’t wanna sound at night, so they gave us curfew
it’s like jumpin’ out with no f+ckin’ parachute, don’t shoot
hands up, but they still gon’ do it
huey newton probably liked man, what y’all n+ggas doin’?
need to come together, all of us and start a revolution
yeah, discover more solutions, overthrow the constitution
stop the lootin’, stop the shootin’, we’ve been livin’ in confusion
[chorus: dillmatic]
things are gettin’ intense, usin’ up my sixth sense
think you had us figured, i can’t use me at your expense
they be on that pretense, we be on some defense
left you in a past tense, you could keep your two cents
i don’t wanna be another target on they hit list
all my people runnin’ ’round the city like some misfits
so i’m steady prayin’ for my brothers like a wish list
cannot trust a soul, they gon’ turn on you the quickest
