Lyrics

Yeah You know sometimes I don't think they truly understand me you know, 'cause they don't Can't change the world unless we change ourselves Die from the sicknesses if we don't seek the health All eyes be my witness when I speak what's felt Full house on my hands, the cards I was dealt Three K's, Two A's in AmeriKKKa I'm just a black spade spawned out the nebula And everything I do or say today is worthwhile Will for sure inspire actions in your first child I'll begin my verse now Sometimes I speak and I feel like it ain't my words Like I'm just a vessel channeling inside this universe I feel my ancestors unrested inside of me It's like they want me to shoot my chance in changing society But how do I go about it? Tell me where I start? My destiny rerouted when I chose to follow heart You told to follow suit, but tell me what it do for you? Except weigh you down, now you trapped inside the cubicle they built for us The first step into change is to take notice Realize the real games that they tried to show us 300 plus years of them cold shoulders Yet 300 million of us still got no focus Sorry America, but I will not be your soldier Obama just wasn't enough, I just need some more closure And Donald Trump is not equipped to take this country over Let's face facts 'cause we know what's the real motives And the land of the free is full of free loaders Leave us dead in the street to be your organ donors They disorganized my people, made us all loners Still got the last names of our slave owners In the land of the free, it's for the free loaders Leave us dead in the street then be your organ donors They disorganized my people, made us all loners Can't change the world unless we change ourselves Die from the sicknesses if we don't seek the health All eyes be my witness when I speak what's felt Full house on my hands, the cards I was dealt Three K's, Two A's in AmeriKKKa I'm just a black spade spawn out the nebula And everything I do is and say today is worthwhile Will for sure inspire action Trickery in the system, put my niggas in prison All our history hidden, ain't no liberty given We all fit the description of what the documents written We been lacking the vision and barely making a living We too worried to fit in while they been benefitin' Every time you submittin', we all guilty admit it The lord won't get you acquitted, but you still ask for forgiveness Put opiates in syringes then inject his religion How many times do I gotta tell you I'm a man on a mission Many times I gotta tell you I don't need no permission A human with super vision, ain't no livin' condition I'm reaching out to my children, just hoping that they will listen Start a new coalition against corrupt politicians It's not enough pots to piss in, too many murder convictions Another family evicted, another black man a victim That's as real as it's getting, you should take recognition In the land of the free, it's for the free loaders Leave us dead in the street then be your organ donors They disorganized my people, made us all loners Still got the last name of our slave owners In the land of the free, it's for the free loaders Leave us dead in the street then be your organ donors They disorganized my people, made us all loners Can't change the world unless we change ourselves Die from the sicknesses if we don't seek the health All eyes be my witness when I speak what's felt Full house on my hands, the cards I was dealt Three K's, Two A's in AmeriKKKa I'm just a black spade spawn out the nebula And everything I do is and say today is worthwhile Will for sure inspire action in your first child
