Lyrics

Woahhh
These my black man blues
Scared to make an error what can a black man do?
Another person dead now I'm back on the news
Posted in the crib I got too much to lose
Cause I
Can’t go outside no mo
Do my best to abide by the law
Another killing is what I can’t go for
Skin the reason to get pulled over by po-po
Oh lord, oh lord
That’s facts
I’m just tryna figure out who got my back
I ain't here for no performative acts
And please don’t tell me to relax, I'm mad I'm upset
Another day another dollar
Another day another killing
Just tryna prosper
Gotta watch my back when I'm supposed to chillin
Damn what a feeling
Waking up all I feel is anxiety
Look out for my people that’s my sole propriety
Knowing I can disappear for what is inside of me
The whole government is menaces to society
Treading lightly, move in silence, changes unlikely
Fight or flight, hands up, defend my psyche
Burnt buildings, burnt crosses, basis nightly
Say her name, don’t forget, we still fighting
These her black woman blues
Scared to make an error what can a black woman do?
Another person dead now we back on the news
Posted in the crib she got too much to lose
Cause she
Can’t go outside no mo'
Do her best to abide by the law
Another killing is what she can’t go for
Skin the reason to get pulled over by po-po
Oh lord, oh lord
That’s facts
She just tryna figure out who got her back
She ain't here for no performative acts
And please don’t tell her to relax
She is mad, she upset
What you aiming for? That could mean two things
We aiming for the moon, the gun aimed for the police
Loaded and cocked back, ready to shoot like Maurice
Lucas if we being frank with the mob in these streets
It’s a blessing to say I made it to 25
Cell phones the new best weapons to be utilized
Whole world see it, nobody being crucified
Flags tied, gangland is unified
Whose shoulder to lean on if the shoulder is not there
Who can the kids believe in if the system is not fair
Want a seat at the table but somebody in my chair
Tryna dismantle us with fear but just know we aint scared
And I declare that
These our black people blues
Scared to make an error what can a black people do?
Another person dead now we back on the news
Posted in the crib we got too much to lose
Cause we
Can’t go outside no mo'
Do our best to abide by the law
Another killing is what we can’t go for
Skin the reason to get pulled over by po-po
Oh lord, oh lord
That’s facts
We just tryna figure out who got our backs
We ain't here for no performative acts
And please don’t tell us to relax
We mad, we upset
