jayy freshh - letter to king lyrics

[intro]
hey king can you hear me
dear lord can you save me

[verse 1]
hey king i just hope this letter get to you
you see the dream you talked about still ain’t come true
not because of racism, well it’s quite a few
it’s just the fact our own people acting like some fools
oh yeah we be k!lling our brothers and blame society
most of us sell our characters for some money
we don’t stand for what’s right, i’ll tell you king it’s scary
you won’t believe it king it’s just modern day slavery
i’ll tell you right now a lot of things done changed
even the way our people think is a d-mn shame
it’s kinda crazy all our brothers chase the same thing
it’s either money, a grammy, or a d-mn ring

[verse 2]
these young kids growing up and they don’t have a leader
either their father left their moms or serving a sentence
by the way i’m not a preacher, i am just a rapper
i have a dream but some see me as menace
our beautiful queens don’t even respect themselves
all they want is some attention and they off the shelves
but could you blame em their parents didn’t raise em well
they treat themselves like merchandise and then they up for sale
i know you probably up there chatting with malcolm x
and if you are tell em the cops is still our biggest threat
the past couple years a lot of brothers put to rest
it don’t just happen in the south, even in east in west
our government is run by a black man
but what difference does it make, it’s the same thing
instead of focus on the people they focus on terrorists
when in the first place they turn these people into terrorists
yeah the truth hurts king i know they not gonna like me
i have something powerful and they can’t take from me

[verse 3]
these young kids growing up traumatized
everywhere you go it’s a freaking homicide
young brothers screaming motherf-ck the other sides
when it’s their own brothers living on the other side
“i have a dream” is everybody’s favorite speech
but sadly they don’t know what it really means
although i can’t change the world i’ll still try to reach
one man at a time i’ll fulfill your dream
well i know you might be busy i won’t keep you long
this is coming from heart its not just a a song
before i go can i please ask you for a favor?
save me a spot just in case they try to do me later
