year of the ox - thoughts & prayers lyrics

[verse 1: lyricks]
speak easy
this is not something we never seen before
people k!lled by whips
the burning cross became a tiki-torch
heard they shot another boy in the block
and he’s leaking slow
guess you forgot the other boy they shot a week ago
jesus
tryin’ to be faithful
tryin’ to stay selfless
remix
the devil turned tables
heaven and h-ll flip
these days life’s becoming more like chapelle’s skits
we pray while the cold hearted preyed on the helpless
it’s hard to have an appet-te when you notice the pain
started off as black and white
but you notice the grey as you get older
your arms get folded
your hearts get colder
your mind’s corroded
you’re feeling so claustrophobic
everyday someone corrupt
another bomb exploded
she got mad so she said
“go back across the border”
she yelled at my mom at the shop
my mom’s the owner
if you don’t have this problem
then yo, how would you know it
but face it
some of our friends on facebook’s racist
copying and pastin’ hatred on a daily basis (yeah)
if we ain’t’ say sh-t, what’s the peace that we chasin’?
i love this microphone cause i can speak to this nation, like
look
if you ain’t’ got the melanin, you don’t know black
if your family don’t got veterans, don’t joke of the flag
i wish is it was simple as that
love, let’s focus on that
until we become one, man
our soul’s getting trapped
i’m sayin’
is the world really coming to a end?
i don’t want to vent
but there are times i really wonder that sh-t
he said he’s gonna destroy that country
i’m like, wait a minute
i got family, friends right under that sh-t
mainstream media feeding its bacteria to m-sses
and honestly i don’t wanna believe none of that sh-t
instead of supporting the people in puerto rico
we find it more important to keep distorted what a quarterback did
the victory delayed
because we stick with a debate
divided by everything
only similar thing is pain
we the same
distracted by the words we be sayin’
we the same
everyone’s looking for one to blame
what a shame

[verse 2: jl]
uh
look, i don’t even know how to approach this (uh)
maybe cause my mind’s been desensitized
maybe cause these ties best exemplify
the end of days
but as long as i’m center stage
and as long as we got the spotlight
i feel as that it’s our job to speak out and mention what’s not right (uh-huh)
let’s stop with outrights, look out right
i’m outraged at the current state of the states (uh)
i’m becoming more nervous day after day (uh)
and i’m certain that certain things have to change (uh)
and it’s up to us to do it
imagine pullin’ up to vegas
three days at mandalay bay
they came for a bachelor party that they planned in late may
first two nights went just how you think it would happen
then at a music festival’s when the unthinkable happened
so what actions are we to take now?
from m-ssacres to natural disasters
waiting for the planet to break down?
and as sad as it may sound
look, you could say the usa is donald j’s playground
so, so tell me what’s the move here?
n-body been through it
no one to tell us what to do here
so tell me what’s the move here?
if n-body been through it, no one can tell us what to do here
