mykele deville - peace, fam lyrics

d-mn
can’t a brother just stroll through the park
with his headphones on when it’s dark
with his hat tipped low and a mouthful of spark
jill scott in his ear with some love in his heart?
uh
in the city that depends where you at huh?
if you’re light skinned, puerto rican, or black, what
mexican denizen in his backyard
brown woman in a headscarf
let my colorful people free float
at least give us two like shooting free throws
west to the south no shooting, please no
in the c-h-i-c-a-g-o
we need some epiphanies for the peripheries
we can treat our lives like a symphony
a little empathy instead of infantry
throw some love on the beat, high-key high key
float like a b-tterfly sting like a bee
oh peace to the most high, king ali
teaching skinny little black boys just like me
gotta think on your feet
gotta think on your feet, hey!
we can see another day if we maintain
feel the force of the left and the right brain
grab hold til you learn how to take aim
pop the knowledge, f-ck a loan for college
we can be ourselves in this panorama
we ain’t gotta front like we all obama
rock a grill with a suit when you’re downtown too
kinky hair don’t care who you scare
yeah
take up sp-ce with intention
everybody gonna have to learn to pay attention
yes alright might cause a little tension
but won’t beg to forgive my existence
dig?
seems so little but the truth is big
don’t need to guess what the symptom is
bet together we can find a cure
we can save anything worth fighting for
i this trumped up battle of a culture war
unite to fight for rights not the same as yours
we can be the dream that the king used to think about
hold hands and expand now everybody screaming out:

peace fam!
peace fam!
gonna take these chains off me!
do the same for my family!
spread the love so we can all get free!
peace fam!
peace fam!
peace fam!
gonna take these chains off me!
do the same for my family!
spread the love so we can all get free!

we must try
you know why
we’ll never get by
if we lie
we must try
you know why
we’ll never get by
if we lie
stay alive

peace – freedom from civil disturbance or violence. freedom from or the cessation of war or violence. used as a greeting. a state of quiet tranquility

fam – you

is it wrong to just believe?
do you think i’m being naive?
wanna stop my chosen fam from grieving, grieving
have we just tried to conceive
visions that we receive
we always dream but not achieving, achieving
of course we can pull it off, yeah
take pride in some radical self care
treat your friends like you treat yourself
love their smile never loven their wealth
if you’re wrapped up tight let your soul unwind
know first change takes place in the mind
revolt
yo we’re the one’s that’s in control
all in together we’re powerful
finding the calm is an art
wild brush strokes will ease any heart
just breathe
sharpen the mind with serenity
see what you want but take what you need
is it wrong to want reprieve?
do you think hope is naive?
want to keep my little brother breathing, breathing
can we just tried to believe
the theories that we speak
we always dream but never screaming, screaming

(chorus 2x)
