00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:10,200
When I was growing up,
1
00:00:10,300 --> 00:00:12,633
I was told in american
history books,
2
00:00:12,733 --> 00:00:15,500
That africa had no history
and neither did i.
3
00:00:17,033 --> 00:00:22,466
That I was a savage, about whom
the less said, the better,
4
00:00:22,566 --> 00:00:27,666
Who had been saved by europe
& brought to america
5
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,500
And of course,
I believed it.
6
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:34,400
I didnt have much choice
7
00:00:35,633 --> 00:00:37,633
Trade my 4x4 for a g63
8
00:00:37,733 --> 00:00:39,000
Aint no more free lil steve
9
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:41,100
I gave them chance and chance
and chance again
10
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,166
I even done told them please
11
00:00:43,266 --> 00:00:46,033
I find it crazy the police will shoot
you and know that you dead
but still tell you to freeze
12
00:00:46,133 --> 00:00:48,066
I seen what I seen
13
00:00:48,166 --> 00:00:49,466
I guess that mean hold him down
if he say he cant breathe
14
00:00:49,566 --> 00:00:51,233
Its too many mothers
that grieving
15
00:00:51,333 --> 00:00:52,300
For no reason
16
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,966
Been going on for too
long to get even
17
00:00:54,066 --> 00:00:55,666
Like dogs and hyenas
18
00:00:55,766 --> 00:00:57,033
I went to prison
19
00:00:57,133 --> 00:00:58,900
My mama was courted & crushed
when they said I cant leave
20
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,500
First I was drunk but I sobered
up quick when I heard all that
time they gave to taleeb
21
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,033
He got a life sentence plus
22
00:01:04,133 --> 00:01:06,200
We just some products
of our environment
23
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:07,633
How they gon blame us
24
00:01:07,733 --> 00:01:09,066
You cant fight fire
with fire
25
00:01:09,166 --> 00:01:13,566
I know but at least we can turn
up the flames some (echo)
26
00:01:14,666 --> 00:01:16,033
You gotta pay
attention to the signs
27
00:01:16,133 --> 00:01:17,766
Seems like the blind following
the blind
28
00:01:17,866 --> 00:01:19,566
Thinking bout everything
thats going on
29
00:01:19,666 --> 00:01:21,266
I boost security up in
my home
30
00:01:21,366 --> 00:01:23,066
Im with my kind if they
right or they wrong
31
00:01:23,166 --> 00:01:24,666
I call him now hell
pick up the phone
32
00:01:24,766 --> 00:01:26,533
Its 5 in the morning
he waking up on it
33
00:01:26,633 --> 00:01:28,166
Tell them wherever im
at then they comin
34
00:01:28,266 --> 00:01:29,900
I see blue lights, I get scared
and start runnin
35
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,966
That be crazy, they supposed
to protect us
36
00:01:32,066 --> 00:01:33,633
Throw us in handcuffs
and arrest us
37
00:01:33,733 --> 00:01:35,533
While they go home at night,
that messed up
38
00:01:35,633 --> 00:01:37,133
Knowing we needed help,
they neglect us
39
00:01:37,233 --> 00:01:38,800
Wondering who gon make
them respect us
40
00:01:38,900 --> 00:01:40,600
I can see in your
eye that you fed up
41
00:01:40,700 --> 00:01:42,533
Mess around got my
shot I wont let up
42
00:01:42,633 --> 00:01:44,033
I know that we a
problem together
43
00:01:44,133 --> 00:01:45,900
They know that we can
storm any weather
44
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Its bigger than
black and white
45
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:48,933
Its a problem with the
whole way of life
46
00:01:49,033 --> 00:01:50,566
It cant change overnight
47
00:01:50,666 --> 00:01:52,233
But we gotta start somewhere
48
00:01:52,333 --> 00:01:54,000
Might as well gon
head start here
49
00:01:54,100 --> 00:01:55,533
We done had a hell of a year
50
00:01:55,633 --> 00:01:57,366
Im gon make it
count while im here
51
00:01:57,466 --> 00:01:59,400
God is the only man I fear
52
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:03,100
Its a state of emergency
53
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,633
Its been a hell of a year
54
00:02:04,733 --> 00:02:06,866
Hell for over 400 years
55
00:02:06,966 --> 00:02:09,066
My people its time we stand
56
00:02:09,166 --> 00:02:12,566
Its time we demand the freedom
that this land promises
57
00:02:12,666 --> 00:02:16,700
President biden we demand
justice, equity, policy
58
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,466
And everything else that
freedom encompasses
59
00:02:19,566 --> 00:02:21,100
And to accomplish this
60
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,300
We dont need allies
61
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,833
We need accomplices
62
00:02:23,933 --> 00:02:25,400
Its bigger than
black & white
63
00:02:25,500 --> 00:02:26,766
This is not a trend
(until freedom)
64
00:02:26,866 --> 00:02:28,000
This is our plight
(until freedom)
65
00:02:28,100 --> 00:02:29,166
Until freedom
66
00:02:29,266 --> 00:02:30,666
Until freedom
67
00:02:30,766 --> 00:02:32,600
Until freedom
68
00:02:32,700 --> 00:02:34,033
Every video I see
on my conscious
69
00:02:34,133 --> 00:02:35,766
I got power now I
gotta say somethin
70
00:02:35,866 --> 00:02:37,833
Corrupted police been the
problem where im from
71
00:02:37,933 --> 00:02:39,433
But I would be lying if I
said it was all of em
72
00:02:39,533 --> 00:02:40,500
I didnt do this for
the trend
73
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:41,533
I dont follow them
74
00:02:41,633 --> 00:02:42,833
Altercations with
the law, had a lot
75
00:02:42,933 --> 00:02:43,966
People speaking for
the people
76
00:02:44,066 --> 00:02:45,066
Im proud of em
77
00:02:45,166 --> 00:02:46,300
Stick together we can
get it up out of em
78
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,100
