xavier rhapsody - i'm afraid lyrics

[hook]
i’m afraid, can’t handle livin’ like this
i’m afraid, when they shoot i know they ain’t gon miss
i’m afraid, sheriff huntin’ me down like the slave days
i’m afraid, ‘fraid they gon take my life away

[verse 1: xavier rhapsody]
i can’t breathe!
my neck under your knee!
tryna suffocate, all my hopes and dreams
what do you hope to achieve from my people’s subjugation?
you don’t want me reachin’ higher than the f+cking pavement!

curse me til’ i’m dead!
say this black skin is a curse
k!ll me with, no remorse
leave me hangin’, just a corpse
irrelveant to society, built this land in vain
our forty acres and a mule still left to gain

curse me til im dead! (curse me til im dead)
haunt me till i’m dead! (hunt me til im dead)
hunt me til im dead! (haunt me til im dead)
curse me til im dead! (work me til im dead)
haunt me till i’m dead! (hunt me til im dead)
hunt me til im dead! (work me til im dead)
work me til im dead! (haunt me til im dead)
haunt me so instead! (curse me til im dead)
[hook]
i’m afraid, can’t handle livin’ like this
i’m afraid, when they shoot i know they ain’t gon miss
i’m afraid, sheriff huntin’ me down like the slave days
i’m afraid, ‘fraid they gon take my life away

[verse 2: xavier rhapsody]
is it my skin?
my black melanin?
that fills your mind with hate and genocide on my kin
you tell the world i’m a k!ller, but got a gun to my face
petrified, terrified, i don’t know what else to say

i got my hands up
handcuffed
mama said abide by they rules
don’t wanna see you end up dead on the news
i’m sorry mama, if i live or die i don’t get to choose

curse me til im dead! (curse me til im dead)
(i didn’t even do anything!, i can’t breathe!)
haunt me till i’m dead! (hunt me til im dead)
why are you following me? i don’t wanna die young!)
hunt me til im dead! (haunt me til im dead)
(i love you too, they tasing me!)
curse me til im dead! (work me til im dead)
(i don’t have a gun, stop shooting, please don’t let me die)
haunt me till i’m dead! (hunt me til im dead)
hunt me til im dead! (work me til im dead)
work me til im dead! (haunt me til im dead)
haunt me so instead! (curse me til im dead)
(officer why do you have your guns out…)
[bridge]
ayyye, f+ck the charges
we bring em’ up, uncle sam will drop em’
and the kkk, i mean the police
still got nothing to say
ayyye
zimmerman’s loose, and cosgrove and many more
out k!lling too
ayyye
and yes, i’m afraid
cuz they get away with black murder everyday
