Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ugh, no, we will not, Ugh
No, we will not stand here in silence
While they take the lives of our brothers
And sisters and partna
We will not turn a blind to the murder with no repercussions
Oh no, we will not
We will not live on our knees, we will die on our feet
This ain't no lie that I speak
All you youngin's out here in the streets
Only want to shoot people that look like you
You can stay home, you too weak
[Verse 2]
Oh no, we will not go and repeat the mistakes
Of the past
Ignorin' the snakes in the grass
Payin' you cash
Still, we pray and we fed
Till one day thats you end
We will not ask for no war
No, no, no, no, no, but we will be prepared
For one, hopping that with a gun
With get unity, using the same shit you did
To destroy me
We sick of the garbage you kickin' and teachin'
And lynchin' us
Lockin' us up for no reason, they killin' us
No consequences 'cause, bitch, are you serious?
Lyin' about what you show in the media
Assassinate all the leaders who leadin' us
Leave us with ones who misleadin' us
Then go reward all the ones who mistreat us
And leave us in projects and give us these poisonous products
On top of narcotics to push to our sisters and brothers
Like them ain't our sisters and brothers
No we will not be run amuck, led astray
Or bamboozled, the buck'll be stoppin' today
[Verse 3]
See what happen when athletes will no longer play for you
Tell them accountants to pray for you
On respect or respect what that paper do
Look up, it too late for you
Droppin' you off
Turnin' them profit to loss
When we won't go shop in the mall
United we all, stuck in this bullshit together
Showin' these folk we just won't take whatever
Or else they just roll up and shoot at whatever
Just like they've been doin' forever
[Verse 4]
The **** swear they hard, be huffing and puffing
But ain't gon' do nothin'
The enemy try 'em
They wait behind enemy lines
Why you tryna be so friendly now
Handle your business now
And we won't fear nothin' but judgement from god
Standin' there lookin' at me sayin', you ain't do nothin'
I bless you when you ain't invested in nothin'
Just kept up the cycle of death and destruction
Ignorin' you neighbor won't help him but helpin' yourself
Just like the devil himself
[Verse 5]
Promote all that fornication
All that baby makin' ain't no baby raisin'
For a generation
Now they trapped in systems 'cause incarceration
Was inevitable due to education
Substandard institution never cared
J drop, buyin' every pair
Crack rock, crip, blood, all the 80
GDP and whatever else to separate us
Hip-hop, king you finally made it
Your time to take it
Pass Martin Luther
All that money and you still blew it
Didn't save and you feel stupid
ITunes came and they bootleggin'
That what you get for bein' hard headed
God damn, ****
Man the world gon' go to hell here
'Cause I tried as hard as I can ****
I know you only a man, but god damn ****
