lb199x - to live & die in amerikkka lyrics

[intro]
who will survive in amerikkka?
to live and die in amerikkka
my n#ggas died by amerikkka
my momma cried in amerikkka
will i survive in amerikkka?

[verse 1]
truth be told
up on my soul
i’ve been thinking bout it way too long it’s getting old
momma worry ’bout me when i’m walking out the door
standing on the porch i see a trail of gun smoke, bang!
another n#gga being murdered by his own kind
it’s a sign that my own brother tryna take mine
hate on me n#gga, yeah you hate yourself
take from me n#gga what that make yourself?
look, while i’m looking for a reason
living in conditions where crime’s how i’m eating
i can’t be a vegan it’s too many n#ggas beefing
dealing with my problems and the lies i’m believing
lord, you ain’t sh#t unless you lit or you telling a joke
you ain’t legit unless you gangsta or you peddling smoke
i need to know, if it’s better to vote
cause where i’m from all i know you make that money when you selling that dope
now it’s a hustler’s ambition
black man’s vision
new world order
man, f#ck a politician
tryna make a living
but my upbringing different
live by the code
lord, we don’t do no snitching
rather
rob peter
pay paul
mothaf#ck a day job
never take a day off
every day i go hard
doing well so far
looking to the sky searching for that north star
that underground railroad got me out that h#ll hole
will i live? lord knows
looking like a scapegoat
wonder why they hate for
probably cause i make more
sense than a lil’ bit
dark and i’m militant
never been ignorant
do this for my family
this is for my brothers and my sisters in the county
or hustlers on the block tryna be top notch
you love being real ’til somebody get dropped
in amerikkka

[hook]
to live and die in amerikkka
d#mn
my n#ggas died by amerikkka
my momma cried in amerikkka
will i survive in amerikkka?
lookin’ at the man the mirror, huh
could you see your soul much clearer, huh
it’s time to manifest the vision, uh
see i hope my people listen, uh

[verse 2]
color us black
like their depiction is fact
f#ck around with our books
to keep agendas intact
what you know ’bout garvey?
see how they did malcolm
see i come from the mecca
they don’t know nothing ’bout it
you see the african in me
maybe that’s why they envy
when i empower the block
they’ll get a brother to k!ll me
they know greed can be filthy
all know my real ones gon’ feel me
see how they did nipsey
made me look at my city
i gotta, take a stand and be a man
and find my way up
ain’t no sleeping on me
muhf#cka betta stay up
can’t talk about my failures
cause my failures made me win
i’ma always help my brother cause i love you ’till the end
cause the enemy
never been you and me
always been the other side
if we speaking truthfully
we ain’t what we used to be
you ain’t even know that
let me paint the picture for you
so that we can go back
believe that

[outro poem]
to live in die in amerikkka
too many lies in amerikkka
can’t look in the eyes of amerikkka
something we despise about amerikkka
who will survive in amerikkka?
color#coded language
has always been dangerous
for my melenated dreams
when i fall to the bottom
watch me climb a never#ending battle
what is known to man as the american dream
f#ck your system
f#ck your thoughts
f#ck your favors
you can’t be comfortable where you live
if your hurt your neighbors
hid history from the ones who exposed your hatred
now you know who dangerous
the jig is up pusher man
i ain’t buying what you selling
besides, we can’t vote cause we all felons
off the same sh#t you selling
i’ma tell it like it is
you k!lled our fathers
but them n#ggas got kids
and they sons got older
and they dreams got big
now we gon’ decide who dies and who live
