j lye - one nation lyrics

-election introduction-

verse 1:

shout out to the cops, they really want to put us down
you’re not special opps, no reason for your gun to sound
fabricate a crime and yeah you do it cause the skin is brown
ran out of excuses, now its time to put your hoodie down
i didn’t graduate from harvard, yale or stanford
but if you have a taser, whys a bullet now your answer?
they’re killing everyday but somehow never seem to justify
black man from the ghetto died and suddenly its brushed aside
wow, my hands are up when i am walking home
cause i don’t wanna be a t-shirt where my face is shown
they blow away my brothers and my sisters too
i know they got on cameras, but this sh-t is nothing new
see they beat us up in jail, and now they leave us on the street
i may not be in shackles, but my land is hardly free
i’m drinking lemonade, i guess that ice t had a point
and these cops are running free but id be locked up for a joint

chorus:

all they do is murder us, they murder us
all they do is murder us, they murderers
they shoot, kill, stab and even choke
and theyre laughing in the senate, on the streets its not a joke

all they do is muder us, they murder us
all they do is muder us, they murderers
bang, bang, bang i don’t like the sound
my fist up in the air, when we stand our ground

verse 2:

i look at donald trump, that man will never make me proud
listen to your anthem i’ll be kneeling to the crowd
they’re using chalk in school to introduce us to the streets
and putting nikes on our feet to run away from the police
its funny how a man is killed, the color of serena
but all yall care about is news on brad and angelina
i’m watching from my home, but cnn looks like a movie
i don’t listen to the anchors, truth be told you never moved me
debating back and forth, about the poor, but by the rich
and words are are only words, i’m getting sick of every pitch
i’m thinking bout my roots and the way that they treated kunta
they’re sayings we’re the shooters, but you find a way to shoot us
getting rid of all americans, native to this country
you represent the law but i will never let you touch me
wealth and all your health, but all we every get is prison
and i’m begging to our nation, open up your ears and listen
