The Declaration

[Verse 1]
Just woke up to the sad news
Another nigga shot down on tulip street
So many flowers in the Black garden
With they pedals plucked over concrete
Young women dawning angel wings
Tryna fly to safety getting hung in cells
Black bodies burning down in churches
Tryna pray to God cuz we live in hell
Traffic stops turn to funerals
And raised hands turn to "kill me now"
Cops already on the next victim
Before the last victim even hit da ground
Tell me who you protecting?
Who you arresting?
That's why I spit wit a message?
You will be contested

[Hook]
That's why I'm yelling I'M HERE
And I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
America I'M HERE
And I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
White privilege I'M HERE
And I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
All my people WE HERE
And we ain't going nowhere
We ain't going nowhere
We ain't going no

[Verse 2]
Nooses hanging off of a college trees
Racism in the campus breeze
Niggas saying that it ain't a hate crime the same people
Shouting they can breathe
My momma telling me to make it home
And it hurts my heart I can't promise that
Shawty saying trust her, she love me
But my people dying got my heart detached
Cuz that last text might just be my last
That last drink might just be my last
The last time that I dap my nigga
Might be the last time that we hang and laugh
Cuz they killing us off
They killing us all
But believe through it all
Believe thought it all

[Hook]
I'm yelling I'M HERE
And I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
America I'M HERE
And I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
White privilege I'M HERE
And I ain't' going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
All my people WE HERE
And we ain't going nowhere
We ain't going nowhere
We ain't going no
