The mercenary don't fight the war for free They fight the war for a currency not unity not peace Book keepers with information that covers all of these details Fake news won't prevail if we holding the keys Land of the free Enslaved by the false pretense They attack and we play defence How do I make you see sense? Have all of your thoughts deepen, test your beliefs If the law ain't for us, who's policing the police? Who's increasing all their fees? Listening to their speeches How many times did we march with no shoes on? No Js or Louboutin Been beaten on, we been chewed on But it happened years ago, so we should just move on You think that man don't know pain 'cause he got a suit on? 'Cause he finally got a plate that he can now have food on? Telling me that luck isn't everybody's friend But, really you can't fathom that my tree now has fruit on Don't get me irate in this climate It's heating up in that plane now Can't fly straight, I might up and migrate Turbulence results in your mind racing Prone to dehydration Running 'cause you want freedom, don't die chasing This is post-apocalyptic, where we stand You wanna give us the Bible and have us give up the land They will dangle the carrot when nothing is in your hand And tell you never to worry, it's all just part of the plan Fuck what you got planned, your wish isn't my command These people are not your friends, I finally understand They wanna divide you and close people in your set 'Cause when you're winning together that's bigger than any check One day, you'll love my pain One day, you'll love my pain I need you, Lord I need you, Lord (I need you, Lord) I need you, Lord Undervalued, underappreciated in the workplace Why give you my ideas in the first place? Know how you contribute, they tell you describe how You ask for a pay rise, and they raising they eyebrows Why does my blackness have to come with a fight now? I'm peaceful at heart, but I suggest you pipe down I'm not ashamed of the soil that I'm made of Brave woman, my granddaddy is where I got my name from You don't know me well enough to call me Simbi The closest people to me actually call me Simz Apart from my family, in a loving capacity I could never sell my soul for a salary, no They want everything I own, the audacity Try something, and test your mortality That there is a tragedy Oh, you mad how I clocked it and I got here? Mentally taking back my power and I'm signing out, respectfully One day, you'll love my pain One day, you'll love my pain Protect me, Lord (protect me, Lord) Protect me, Lord (I need you, Lord) Protect me, Lord Protect the body, protect the mind Know God making sure my blessings are perfectly timed We as a people die over pride Those handouts are never options where we reside And I still gotta provide, what a mess I'm in Wonder if it's 'cause I been westernised Speaking to the suits, they never give you the best advice A lesson I've learnt the hard way Emphasised, real recognise real, then you become recognised Oh, please, step aside if you're not fighting the war with us How do you become numb to a genocide? Can't you see that everything we feeling is intensified? Bleeding straight from the heart, leave you painfully scarred Many say rehabilitation is hard You saw your vice as an escape through the dark Running away from the childhood trauma So tryna get clean's sounding like torture I'm somebody's daughter I'm somebody's sister, I'm somebody's friend You don't see me how they see me You see money you could spend Took me some years to comprehend Which led me to write the realest shit ever penned God said it's time to give them some gems Switch your perspective have you look at it through my lens They can never fool me again Never silenced, I'ma speak my truth till the end The Lord is with you One day, you'll love my pain One day, you'll love my pain I need you, Lord (Lord) I need you, Lord (I need you, Lord) I need you, Lord (Lord) I need you, Lord (I need you, Lord) I need you, Lord (Lord) I need you, Lord (I need you, Lord) I need you, Lord You'll never be alone The Lord is with you The Lord is with you
