Take My Soul

Feeling stuck but never complacent Hard times but never complaining No freddy I seen nightmares they try to drown me like jason I made it with no demonstration I had some complications I'm fighting confederations They kill my people daily Supposed to protect and save me But they dont use no safety Ain't meditation that can save me from these implications And so I ask this question What about the babies and the mommas who gone raise em Please don't shoot me use yo taser What y'all scared of is it my skin or my brother I think they jealous they want my pigment but not my color They tried to tell us that we can have rights but they don't help us We be screaming out that we can't breathe but still left breathless Gotta value yo people you might not see em after breakfast Go to war with the enemy ain't no folding under pressure Pressure make diamonds shinning perfect timing like a blessing My melanin royalty I am a king they are some peasants If I should die before I wake lord take my soul away If I should die before I wake lord take my soul If I should die before I wake lord take my soul away If I should die before I wake lord take my soul Look I'd hate to leave my mother behind or my sisters Id hate to leave my granny behind she use to whoop us I'm thankful for them lessons that I learned I was a hoodlum If I didn't learn I'd probably be gone or in the system I think we all know are right from our wrongs and they abusing They gave the power to the wrong people and they misuse it Give it to me I'm building black wall street to the fullest It feel like we still got ropes around our necks and they still pulling I ain't scared of bullets I been dodging them before my teens It's a beautiful struggle but sometimes all I hear is screams I don't watch the news cause I got tired of seeing all of my friends They say they feel our pain but these niggas ain't never had a chance Too many caskets and not enough leaders to find the balance All our leaders getting killed because they want us to be silent The revolution is televised I still got tears in eyes They say black lives matters but they kill us man it's genocide If I should die before I wake lord take my soul away If I should die before I wake lord take my soul If I should die before I wake lord take my soul away If I should die before I wake lord take my soul
