reflect (rap) - new fredrick lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
yeah

[verse 1]
i live in two americas, raised in double standards (yeah)
january 6th, the world saw it on the camera (uh)
lens would’ve caught the bloodiest panorama
if them white folk looked like me, you know the answer
don’t focus on the candor
see the explosives and the hammers incited by the potus’s slander (yeah)
trump’s the host of the cancer (uh)
should be thrown in the slammer
but the nation won’t vote in this manner
why you holdin’ the banner
of my lord and savior next to thе confederate
a sitting tеrrorist that was disguised as a president? (uh+huh)
it’s nothin’ new, so i ain’t gon’ be delicate (yeah)
right now, yeah, i am on my frederick (yeah)
dug a list of all, all of the black liberators
posted it right on my refrigerator (yeah)
let my people breathe, we the nation’s defibrillator
and got smoke for any of the instigators
[chorus]
this is not a request, it’s a command
defend the oppressed, take a stand
i don’t care if you a hater or a fan
enemy or a friend, we are standing ’til the end (yeah)
this is not a request, it’s a command (uh+huh)
defend the oppressed, take a stand (take a stand)
i don’t care if you a hater or a fan
enemy or a friend, we are standing ’til the end (yeah)

[verse 2]
yeah, uh, yeah
i sketched my life on the timeline
scroll through the hash marks, it’s crazy how time flies
assigned in the archives, aligned where the stars rise
past meets the present in the future, on god’s time
with no choice, we invaded the earth’s agenda
it’s funny how your very first day, you can’t remember
then they mark the date, stamp it on a certificate
that’s just a privilege my ancestors couldn’t get
so your boy is never ashamed of his age
i summon the rage of frederick douglass right on the stage
an orator with a pen that triggered the civil war
exposing the broken civilization down to the gilded core
they gave me nothin’ but a bed on a filthy floor
it’s a crime to read and write, but you gon’ hear me roar
i try to tell ’em, but they still ignore
it takes a cell pone and george floyd’s neck kneeled to the floor
for you to see, yeah, we still in the civil war
captain america might be a villain at the core
can’t change the lease to the falcon to do your evil chores
get a broom, clean the house, change the decor
hmm, and take that white jesus down
repay to the first owners what you stole stole now, uh, yeah
that is how you rebound, uh, yeah
that is how freedom sounds
[chorus]
this is not a request, it’s a command
defend the oppressed, take a stand
i don’t care if you a hater or a fan
enemy or a friend, we are standing ’til the end (yeah)
this is not a request, it’s a command (uh+huh)
defend the oppressed, take a stand (take a stand)
i don’t care if you a hater or a fan
enemy or a friend, we are standing ’til the end (yeah, standing ’til the—)
