ALL SIDES
I can't birth kids in this world that I live
I'm focused on a change and music is my gift
So I utilize the lyrics hope one day I make a shift
To make the world greater, greater than I'll ever get
So I'll risk embarrassment for the experience
You can laugh at me but you ain't live like this
Where you got no regrets because the time you spent
And what you have today you can't relinquish it
Black power
Black power
I'll hold my fist up all twenty-four hours
My skin looked mixed but I'm blacker the ya shadow
Cause I'm albino like a burnt marshmallow
And it hurt when I see my people shooting
At themselves but what put us in ruins
Is when higher ups decided they was chosen
To use they gun on unarmed black students
Black seniors
Black wordless
Black churches
Black workers
Black high up
Black low tier
Ain't low nuff
So they push fear
Black people
My people
Black people
Want equal
You won't give justice we gon' push for change
Everybody making noise shame its the only way
On the
East side
East side
Done with cops homicides
For your race you gon' ride
West side
West side
They don't wanna hear ya pride
So go where they reside
Nawf side
Nawf side
They ain't ready for rebellion
But they quick to take our lives
South side
South side
Try to label us as felons
But we gotta change the tide
East side
East side
Done with cops homicides
For your race you gon' ride
West side
West side
They don't wanna hear ya pride
So go where they reside
Nawf side
Nawf side
They ain't ready for rebellion
But they quick to take our lives
South side
South side
Try to label us as felons
But we gotta change the tide
Trump talkin' martial law so ima cop another nine
Say we broke the law but how we move is by design
Cause if I see a cop car on the top flashing lights
I can't just wait to see if it's the end of my life
Tired of running away but scared to be a martyr
Die for shit today that keep me free tomorrow
Die for shit cause hey I'm worried to have daughters
Worried to have a son get a call from a doctor
Your child has been a victim of what America offers
Or worse they take me and they grow up without a papa
Just like they want
Just how it happens
Young black male
Worried as hell to be a father
So stop all the fronts
Stop just reacting
Since they ship set sail
Straight to hell even farther
It's never been fair
Never been equal
But we still prevail
Through the power of the people
It's rare to make bail
For minorities
But often in jail
That's the recipe
How the cops act like fraternities
So fine with abusing the authority
That was given to them by the majority
So they could kill us off without worrying
Shit
And it never change
What if we turn cop killers try to play they game
East side
East side
Done with cops homicides
For your race you gon' ride
West side
West side
They don't wanna hear ya pride
So go where they reside
Nawf side
Nawf side
They ain't ready for rebellion
But they quick to take our lives
South side
South side
Try to label us as felons
But we gotta change the tide
East side
East side
Done with cops homicides
For your race you gon' ride
West side
West side
They don't wanna hear ya pride
So go where they reside
Nawf side
Nawf side
They ain't ready for rebellion
But they quick to take our lives
South side
South side
Try to label us as felons
But we gotta change the tide
