Στίχοι

[Verse 1]
I'm the voice for the people who can't speak
(Real shit) People wanna say what I say, but can't say it
But I say it for 'em
[Verse 2]
This is what's wrong, no love at home
(Ain't got no love in the household like there's supposed to be)
This is what's wrong, no jobs to work
(You don't give us no jobs to work)
This is what's wrong (We gon' sell drugs)
Too many lyin' in church, too many cryin' and hurt
Too many tryna lurch, we been hurtin' too long
I testify, I testify (I swear to tell the truth and nothin' but the truth, so help me)
I testify, I testify (I'ma give you the real, that's all I know, I promise)
I tell the truth, I hold my hand
I tell ya the feelings of every man in the sand
I tell you how they lost, lost and just don't understand
I talk for 'em, let me help you understand
[Verse 3]
You know how many people dead round this motherfucker?
People really scared round this motherfucker
If you don't find a program for the Mac and the Sam
They gon' grow up like Greg and his big brothers
**** tired of makin' music and they makin' money
**** spendin' money, but they makin' none
Now you're right back in front the stove, huh, cookin' those, huh?
Motherfucker, did I testify?
Too many mothers dead and cry, crazy then stayin' alive
Like Marvin Gaye said, shit, what's goin' on?
Police brutality, taxes they high
You lookin' dumb, like, what's goin' on?
I ain't hatin' on Trump, but I'm sayin' (I'm just sayin')
Don't spend no billions on some travel and some planes
We need that up in Flint
Better water, they was drinkin', it was dirty as the rain
Black people, man data left us in the rain
Shot us in the back when they saw our fuckin' heat
Got us on the crack, thought we couldn't shake that
We're on three strikes, fuck Bill Clinton
We in the hood tryna get it (Cold world)
College too high, most of the rich never went
So why do we strive?
You can have insurance, but they still won't pay the whole bill for ya
Wake up, this life too real for ya
[Verse 4]
This is what's wrong, no love at home (A lotta shit wrong, ain't no love)
This is what's wrong, no jobs to work (This what's wrong)
(Ain't nothin' for the kids to do, ain't nothin' for 'em to do)
This is what's wrong
Too many lyin' in church, too many cryin' and hurt
Too many tryna lurch, we been hurtin' too long
I testify, I testify (I swear to tell the truth and nothin' but the truth, so help me)
I testify, I testify (All I know is keepin' in a hundred, homies)
I tell the truth, I hold my hand
I tell ya the feelings of every man in the sand
I tell you how they lost, lost and just don't understand
I talk for 'em, let me help you understand
[Verse 5]
You know why the kids overweight, right?
'Cause all you let 'em do is play on that damn iPod
You don't let 'em run and play, like they used to do back in the day
So they never lose weight when they try hard
**** tellin' on they own boy
Got caught, go whip a cush
You should see the pussy (I testify)
**** said that he was hatin', so he ratted
That ain't why he ratted
Ratted 'cause the **** ain't gon' leave the pussy
Race wars, I don't wanna be a race car
Scared the fuck might get hit with a rape charge
'Cause a bitch tell a lie for a dollar bill
That be the same bitch that'll die for a dollar bill
That won't pay the teacher, but it'll pay the judge
Where the cure for diabetes, won't you give it up?
They'll never give it up
They don't wan' lose **** so they thinkin' 'bout the money
They don't give a fuck
I'm just tired of seein' wrong after wrong (I testify)
What I'm seein' with my eyes is a murder scene
White boy killed nine black people in a church
He was hungry, they gave that bitch Burger King
[Verse 6]
(South Carolina)
This is what's wrong, no love at home (A lotta shit wrong, ain't no love)
This is what's wrong, no jobs to work (This what's wrong)
(There ain't nothin' for the kids to do, ain't nothin' for 'em to do)
This is what's wrong
Too many lyin' in church, too many cryin' and hurt
Too many tryna lurch, we been hurtin' too long
I testify, I testify (I swear to tell the truth and nothin' but the truth, so help me)
I testify, I testify (All I know is keepin' in a hundred, homies)
I tell the truth, I hold my hand
I tell ya the feelings of every man in the sand
I tell you how they lost, lost and just don't understand
I talk for 'em, let me help you understand
I testify
[Verse 7]
No one's never truly happy
Lot of people smile to keep from cryin', like me
But no, we not happy with the police and they actions
And yes, we are somebody
Say thugs are nothin', but you don't understand
I do, don't wanna you
So I tell for you
