panamadaprince - line of fire lyrics
[verse]
who am i? who am i? feels like i’m in a disguise. my persona is accepted, but my skin is hard to hide
do i act like i’m naive and pretend i’m colorblind? heard that running from police will give me angel wings to fly
do i walk around with pride in this this world that i despise? where authorities and this racism coincide
it’s a clash of the cl-ss, and both our worlds collide. but walking with a hoodie get you taken by surprise
and “now i’m being followed by this creepy -ss cracker”. said that young boy who ain’t ever seen that morning after
and george zimmerman is the name of his -ss-ssin. but that dude is more free than a blessing from a pastor
hallelujah that we get to say “god bless america”. land of the free, if your pigment is vanilla, uh
loosen up my noose if you gon’ ask about my principles. don’t make an excuse because i’m tryna get my shackles loose!
[chorus]
whoa! we’re sick and tired of being in the line of fire!
we’re sick and tired
whoa! whoa! we’re sick and tired of being in the line of fire!
we’re sick and tired
whoa! whoa!
[bridge]
we’re sick and tired. we don’t wanna be in the line of fire
we’re tryna let go of what transpired. the boys in blue making lives expire
we’re sick and tired
[verse 2]
uh
that’s word to tutankhamun, this society’s a problem ’cause racism is too common
justice for mike brown is what got ferguson on fire, ’cause there seems to be more justice for the officer that shot him
they get up on the news, and then they call us thugs. but we know what ya’ll mean, and we ain’t gonna budge
ya’ll should be the ones with the ski mask and the gloves, ’cause we’re robbed of our dignity and love
we’re a nightmare to these people ’cause a black man was a ruler. so i guess they must’ve thought that freddie gray was freddy krueger
they gonna play dirty, so we gotta play harder. ’cause the point is hard to get like the breath of eric garner
the plots and the schemes ain’t as fiction as it seems. i’ve witnessed too many real “radio raheems”
to “do the right thing” ain’t that far from reach. if ya’ll don’t, we gon’ start a f-ckin’ riot in these streets! ’cause we’re tired!
[chorus]
whoa! we’re sick and tired of being in the line of fire!
we’re sick and tired
whoa! whoa! we’re sick and tired of being in the line of fire!
we’re sick and tired
whoa! whoa!
[bridge]
we’re sick and tired. we don’t wanna be in the line of fire
we’re tryna let go of what transpired. the boys in blue making lives expire
we’re sick and tired
[verse 3]
uh
now who gon’ stop me? uh. uh
(i said who gon’ stop me?)
don’t try to play my sh-t like a professional disk jockey. ’cause we riot over death, and they riot over hockey
ya’ll was one shot away from the stanley cup, too bad! only takes one shot before our names become a hashtag
bombs over baltimore or “bombs over baghdad”. tell me what’s the difference ’cause i’m startin’ to get flashbacks
[outro]
someone tell me why it feels like i keep fallin’ down? ’cause somehow i’ve noticed i just haven’t reached the ground
could someone tell me why it feels like i keep fallin’ down? ’cause somehow i’ve noticed i just haven’t reached the ground
