Donald E. Cannon, Larrance Levar Dopson, Les Holroyd, Robert Rihmeek Williams
Used to be a dreamer
Dreamin' of a fire
Uh, my mama used to pray that she'd see me in Yale
It's fucked up she gotta see me in jail
On the visit with Lil Papi, it hurt even though I seemed to be well
They got a smoker with a key to my cell, damn
And even worst, my judge black don't wanna see me do well
It's either that or black people for sale
Gave me two to four years like, "Fuck your life, meet me in hell"
And let it burn like Lucifer, you look even stupider
Tryna impress them people in power when power abusin' us
For 44 dollars a hour, you coward they using ya
Is it self-hate that made you send me upstate?
This where the so-called "real niggas" sweeping up for cupcakes
And that's your phone time, if you ain't got no money, you ain't online
Hey call your son, call your daughter just to wish them more prime
Oh God, don't let them streets get a hold of 'em
Your daughter fuckin' now, it's gon be a cold summer
Your son trappin' and your homie givin' O's to him
And if he fuck that paper up, he puttin' holes through him
And you just wanna make it home, so you can show it to him
And them people ain't finna give no parole to ya

And they got us warring for our freedom
See my brother blood on the pavement
How you wake up in the mornin' feelin' evil?
Uhh, trauma
When them drugs got a hold of your mama
And the judge got a hold on your father
Go to school, bullet holes in the locker
Ain't no PTSDs, them drugs keep it at ease
They shot that boy 20 times when they could've told him just freeze
Could've put him in a cop car, but they let him just bleed
The ambulance, they coming baby, just breathe
That's what the old lady said when she screamed
This nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th
And in the 13th amendment, it don't say that we kings
They say that we legally slaves if we go to the bing
They told Kaep' stand up if you wanna play for a team
And all his teammates ain't saying a thing (Stay woke)
If you don't stand for nothing, you gon' fall for something
And in the 60's, if you kneeled, you'd prolly be killed
But they don't kill you now, they just take you out of your deal
Kill your account, look where money get spilled
Check it, and they don't kill you now, they just take you out of your deal
Kill your account, look where money get spilled
I just won

Invisible shackles on the king, 'cause shit, I'm on bail
I went from selling out arenas, now shit, I'm on sale
Them cold nights starting to feel like hell, uhh
Watching a black woman take my freedom
Almost made me hate my people

Used to be a dreamer
War früher ein Träumer
Dreamin' of a fire
Träumte von einem Feuer
Uh, my mama used to pray that she'd see me in Yale
Uh, meine Mama hat früher gebetet, dass sie mich in Yale sieht
It's fucked up she gotta see me in jail
Es ist abgefuckt, dass sie mich im Gefängnis sehen muss
On the visit with Lil Papi, it hurt even though I seemed to be well
Beim Besuch mit'm Kleinen, es hat weh getan auch wenn's aussah als ob es mir gut ging
They got a smoker with a key to my cell, damn
Da ist 'n Mörder mit'm Schlüssel zu meiner Zelle, verdammt
And even worst, my judge black don't wanna see me do well
Und das schlimmste ist, dass meine Richterin schwarz ist, und mich nicht Erfolg haben sehen will
It's either that or black people for sale
Entweder das oder schwarze Menschen sind zu verkaufen
Gave me two to four years like, "Fuck your life, meet me in hell"
Hat mir zwei bis vier Jahre gegeben so als ob, „fick dein Leben, wir sehen uns in der Hölle“
And let it burn like Lucifer, you look even stupider
Und lass es brennen wie Lucifer, du siehst noch dümmer aus
Tryna impress them people in power when power abusin' us
Versucht die Menschen an der Macht zu beeindrucken, wenn die Macht selbst uns ausbeutet
For 44 dollars a hour, you coward they using ya
Für vierundvierzig Dollar die Stunde, du Feigling, sie benutzen dich
Is it self-hate that made you send me upstate?
Ist es Selbsthass wegen dem du mich in den Knast geschickt hast?
This where the so-called "real niggas" sweeping up for cupcakes
Hier machen sogenannte „wahre Niggas“ für Cupcakes sauber
And that's your phone time, if you ain't got no money, you ain't online
Und das war deine Telefon-Zeit, wenn du kein Geld hast, bist du auch nicht online
Hey call your son, call your daughter just to wish them more prime
Hey, ruf deinen Sohn an, ruf deine Tochter an, nur um ihnen mehr Erfolg zu wünschen
Oh God, don't let them streets get a hold of 'em
Oh Gott, lass die Straße sie nicht schnappen
Your daughter fuckin' now, it's gon be a cold summer
Deine Tochter fickt jetzt, es wird ein kalter Winter
Your son trappin' and your homie givin' O's to him
Dein Sohn verkauft, und dein Freund gibt ihm den Stoff
And if he fuck that paper up, he puttin' holes through him
Und wenn er das mit dem Geld vermasselt, wird er ihn durchlöchern
And you just wanna make it home, so you can show it to him
Und du willst bloß nach Hause kommen um es ihm zu zeigen
And them people ain't finna give no parole to ya
Und dann geben dir Leute keine Bewährung
They want blood, we all hangin' with a noose on our neck
Sie wollen Blut, wir hängen alle mit einer Schlinge um den Hals
My celly mom just died, he wanna use my collect
Die Mutter von meinem Zellgenossen ist grade gestorben, er will meine Telefon-Zeit benutzen
And he won't make it to the wake unless he give 'em a check
Und er wird es nicht zur Beerdigung schaffen, außer er gibt ihnen 'nen Scheck
We still niggas though, what you expect?
Wir sind immer noch Niggas, was hast du dir erwartet?
I just won
Ich hab grad' gewonnen
I was on the corner with the reefa
Ich war an der Ecke mit'm Gras

Und der Richter deinen Vater schnappt
Go to school, bullet holes in the locker
Geh zur Schule, Kugellöcher im Schließfach
Ain't no PTSDs, them drugs keep it at ease
Kein PTBS, die Drogen halten es vom Leib
They shot that boy 20 times when they could've told him just freeze
Sie haben auf den Jungen zwanzig mal geschossen, wenn sie einfach hätten „Halt“ sagen können
Could've put him in a cop car, but they let him just bleed
Hätten ihn in ein Polizeiauto setzen können, aber sie haben ihn einfach bluten lassen
The ambulance, they coming baby, just breathe
„Der Krankenwagen, sie kommen, Baby, nur atmen“
That's what the old lady said when she screamed
Das hat die alte Dame gesagt als sie schrie
This nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th
Das hier ist wie „Nightmare on Elm Street“ oder „Friday the 13th“
And in the 13th amendment, it don't say that we kings
Und im 13. Zusatzartikel steht nicht, dass wir Könige sind
They say that we legally slaves if we go to the bing
Da steht, dass wir rechtlich Sklaven sind, wenn wir in den Knast gehen
They told Kaep' stand up if you wanna play for a team
Sie haben zu Kaep' gesagt, „steh' auf, wenn du für ein Team spielen willst“
And all his teammates ain't saying a thing (Stay woke)
Und alle seine Mitspieler sagen kein Wort (bleib woke)
If you don't stand for nothing, you gon' fall for something
Wenn du für nichts aufstehst, wirst du auf etwas reinfallen
And in the 60's, if you kneeled, you'd prolly be killed
Und in den 60ern, wärst du für's Knien wahrscheinlich umgebracht worden
But they don't kill you now, they just take you out of your deal
Aber sie bringen dich jetzt nicht um, sie nehmen dir einfach deine Deals weg
Kill your account, look where money get spilled
Beenden deinen Vertrag, guck wo Geld verschüttet wird
Check it, and they don't kill you now, they just take you out of your deal
Check es, und sie dich jetzt nicht um, sie nehmen dir einfach deine Deals weg
Kill your account, look where money get spilled
Beenden deinen Vertrag, guck wo Geld verschüttet wird
