They got agendas so watch for pretenders who say they can help you out (watch out)
This world is dark but I'm here with the spark and that's how we gon' burn it down (burn it)
I came to shut it down, down
Tell 'em I got it, I get it
Devil is real and he busy
Get out the world trying to kill me
You can not handle the real me (no)
I say the system is rigged
I see injustice is real
This ain't just something we feel
When one our kids get killed (no)
Hands up don't shoot
Man down don't move
Stand up go thru
Ransomed no loot
Blood bought like new
Same road new shoes
Unashamed whole crew
All I do is speak truth
