killa kyleon – i ain’t standing (intro) lyrics
[intro: voice 1 and voice 2]
in world war two, there were a lot of african-americans that went to foreign — foreign soil to fight. they sure did. mhm. they were fighting for freedoms in a foreign land that when they di— came home, they didn’t enjoy themselves. under that flag, with those veterans. so think about this: you go to germany, and you go overseas, and you fight for freedoms of people you have no idea, have nothing in common with. and the very country that you’re representing, when you come back to it, you’re a second-cl-ss citizen
[verse: k!lla kyleon]
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
i’m sittin’ for all the black family
members that’s victims of collateral damage
pullin’ us over with your weapons brandished
actin’ so outlandish, no understandin’
bein’ extra demandin’, knowin’ he pullin’ the trigger if he don’t see where my hands is
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
for every black man they enslaved
for every black man they put in a grave
treated like animals, stuck in a cage, victims of rage
k!lled unjustly no matter the age
diseases, manmade, cancer and aids
to make us die quietly, what the plan is
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
for alton sterling, philando castile, keith lamont scott, terence crutcher
trump on-screen openly saying f-ck us for a vote actin’ like we suckas
leavin’ us with fatherless kids, demoralizin’ our mothers
creatin’ hate crimes on our brothers
and if you dyin’ with us, you’s a n-gga lover
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
i’m tired
“can’t we all just get along?” i tried
the laws and const-tution they wrote full of lies
to none of us that sh-t applies
whites only, access denied
took us out the jungle, placed us in a war zone
forced us to survive with limited supplies
a whole, cotton core surrounded by bullsh-t, n-ggas, and flies
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
f-ck a national anthem
i’m holdin’ my fist high for all the dead black panthers
or political leaders you k!lled just to make an example
we cursed in the womb to the day we placed in pampers
i’ve got a list of questions that still need answers
but the main one is, “do my black life matter?”
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
tell them motherf-ckers i ain’t standin’
