jon foli - what do i mean to you? lyrics

[chorus}
they try to limit who you are
convinced themselves you’re not a star
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
they hate to see us stand at par
they try to strip away our power
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want

[verse 1]
hand on my chest
hand on my chest
black boy living my life wearing a vest
i’m scared of death
i’m unimpressed with how me and mines are portrayed by the press
treated as less
at first, it was just get an education
come to realize they never made reservations
then they act like we don’t deserve explanations
it’s bout time we all lose all our patience
raging
and i lose hope sometimes
turn the news on see another black man die
turn to the heavens, god please just tell why
isn’t 400 years of f+ckery not enough?
see our journey’s been h+lla rough
and to be honest it’s just begun
we sense danger at every turn
the house we built we will burn
if that’s what it takes to be heard
word
[chorus]
they try to limit who you are
convinced themselves you’re not a star
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
they hate to see us stand at par
they try to strip away our power
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want

[verse 2]
hand on my chest
hand on my chest
how do a negro like me believe he blessed
different tests to stay alive
my life is a daily episode of how to survive
they say we acting out with no reason
like we ain’t been trying to spark their attention
to the black k!lling addiction
fronting like we tripping
tired of you hearing us maybe you should f+cking listen

[refrain]
we ain’t scared no more
don’t open up we breaking down all doors
see the way we moving you can tell we strong
take back what you took to fill this void
we ain’t scared no more
don’t open up we breaking down all doors
see the way we moving you can tell we strong
sh+ts bout to get real
[chorus]
they try to limit who you are
convinced themselves you’re not a star
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
they hate to see us stand at par
they try to strip away our power
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
they try to limit who you are
convinced themselves you’re not a star
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
they hate to see us stand at par
they try to strip away our power
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
don’t give those n+ggas what they want
