Amazing (feat. Corey H)

They tell us we free

But we've been socially engineered to self-destruct

So how is that even possible?

Tired of seeing us die

It's time to start fighting for real freedom

It's time to come together and change things

It's on us

We still trapped in a cage, but they tell us we free

Diluting our passion and rage, deterring our destiny

Integration, blindfolded a generation with vision

Mistreated by institutions that thrive off our tuition

They didn't want us to learn, they hid knowledge in books

Tears leaking from my eyes, didn't have the strentgh to look

So how can I talk to my kids and tell them that life is fair?

In all honesty, we'd do better on welfare

But I'm out here trying to do right, morning to night

Demoralized just trying to pay for the lights

Shattered dreams evaporated from the stems of pipes

All these hopes of a new day, crushed by these sirens and lights

NOOK Turner ain't a coward, I was taught to fight

But then George Floyd lost his life

Somebody lied to us, you speak the truth and get murked

That's why Pac, Huey P, and Nipsey Hussle in the dirt

It's amazing

We buy the lie that we free

But all I see is my people lying dead in the streets

It's amazing (so amazing)

It's amazing

It's amazing

We buy the lie that we free

But all I see is my people lying dead in the streets

It's amazing (so amazing)

It's so amazing oooh

We blindfolded by reality TV that ain't reality

Mis-using the youngsters, turning our daughters to casualties

We gotta realize that we still some slaves

Stand in line all night for some goddamn J's (whoa)

And I bet you got something to say

We post on Facebook more than we pray

We lost our way, so let these words marinate

They lied to us trying to hide the fact we great but we are

Visions of stacked bodies is different from what they showed me

Africa millions massacre while we ballin' like Kobe

Locally, we get murdered then pacified with a check

Not realizing we get they money but never gon' get respect

And it's amazing how we get fooled by the hate

They got the hook, so them corporations use us as bait

Until we all start to realize how amazing we are

We blinded by scars that block the reflection of God

It's amazing

We buy the lie that we free

But all I see is my people lying dead in the streets

It's amazing (so amazing)

It's amazing

It's amazing

We buy the lie that we free

But all I see is my people lying dead in the streets

It's amazing (so amazing)

It's so amazing oooh

R.I.P. to everybody that died

Due to this h- a- system

Rest in peace Pickle

Rest in peace to all the fallen soldiers in every city

Around the world

That deal with white supremacy

It's amazing

We buy the lie that we free

But all I see is my people lying dead in the streets

It's amazing (so amazing)

It's amazing

It's amazing

We buy the lie that we free

But all I see is my people lying dead in the streets

It's amazing (so amazing)

It's so amazing oooh

(NOOK Turner)

So, so

So, so

Amazing
