lil amp - i am lyrics

[hook:]
i am trayvon, i am mike brown (x4)
i am this song, can’t hold me down
i am trayvon, i am mike brown (x4)
i am emmett till, i am rodney king

[verse 1:]
young black males, i am trayvon
they’ll keep k!llin, til we say something
lets stand our ground not keep running
aonther old boy died, why is it stunning?
they don’t charge him, brush it off like its nothing
i am mike brown, hands up knees on the ground
riots, light the fire, raise up the whole town
there are no more sit-in’s, no jim crow
been mistreated for too long, tension to strong
k!ll us at night and chaos epurts at dawn
driving while black, it’s not just a song
god put us right here, why can’t we get along?
i mean just because of my skin color
i got white boys, they my n-ggas, they like brothers
so its not all, not all hate each other
my hood, hands up; you don’t gotta shoot
i’m on my f-ckin knees;
tell me what else i’m suppose to do
some done wanna hear it, they fear it?
but i’m just telling the truth
justice is so f-cked up
i’m trying to get that in this booth
i guess if our past are who we are, then it’s nothing new

[hook:]

[verse 2: a.b.]

[hook:]
i am trayvon, i am mike brown (x4)
i am this song, can’t hold me down
i am trayvon, i am mike brown
i am a human being that you keep on beating

[verse 3:amp]
i am a human being, one that you keep on beating
yellin out for help and america can’t seem to hear it
then we riot, they see us coming and start fearing
then you feel our pain, see the predicament we in
it’s how you finsh not begin, but will this sh-t never end?
justifable homicides, b-tch we know you lying
that bullsh-t you sellin no of us goin be buying
me and a.b., y’all just want n-ggas to keep a low key
if y’all can’t hold us down, then just leave it to the police
stand our ground, all the black folks know what i mean
brown and garner, sons are dead, try to tell that their to fathers
why us?, they don’t even know that they fault us
law enforcement they fail us, they k!ll us, ready to jail us
but really?, them b-tches couldn’t f-ckin care less
tanks, strapped up with riot gear, they just tryin to scare us
and k!ll our brothers and sons, it’s like they f-ckin dare us
or taunt us, riots in these streets, don’t they f-ckin hear us
i know they do, they just push it to the side, deny the truth
while we say ‘hands up, don’t shoot; they still goin too
why are we surprised?, this sh-t is really old news
just repeating itself, but this time we ain’t goin lose
this time we got a short fuse, congress whatca goin do?
because no longer will we take this, we been though
