Now, I got a gut feeling
Maybe it's not just a gut feeling, take a look around
I ain't tryna preach, but we know the facts
They kick you when you're down and leave you in the dust
It's sad, but they don't give a fuck about us
We're living in a rush, forget about trust
'Cause they don't give a fuck about us
It's all about bread, they wanna see you dead or in debt
And they don't give a fuck about us
Tell the world to calm down, I'm tryna stick around
But they don't give a fuck about us
Layin' in a hospital bed, that make you think
This shit could be over 'fore you blink, what we eat and we drink
Is killin' more of us than violence in the streets
Free my cousin Mike, shit, I ain't talk to him in weeks
Whеn you sittin' in a cell for 23 a day
And you can't get thе hour 'cause the staff underpaid
Burn every single prison down, we're not slaves (we're not slaves)
It's hard to soak all this in and not rage
Investors tryna bring me down while I'm sick (while I'm sick)
Tell 'em, "Suck my dick"
I bounced back, yeah, I'm back outside, let's ride
The bags under my eyes from all their lies
I realized power's really just a devil in disguise (in disguise)
One thing I despise
Is a two-faced snake full of greed (full of greed)
And they wonder why my lungs full of weed (full of weed)
They kick you when you're down and leave you in the dust
It's sad, but they don't give a fuck about us
We're living in a rush, forget about trust
'Cause they don't give a fuck about us
It's all about bread, they wanna see you dead or in debt
They don't give a fuck about us
Tell the world to calm down, I'm tryna stick around
But they don't give a fuck about us
Called for a temperature check, "How do you feel?"
They don't even fuck about us, I'm just keepin' it real
You just got your shit seized, did it leak through the seal?
Or did your homie snitch on you and agree to the deal?
It get hard just to be on the field, it really do
But the man up top get me here, so I'ma see it through
All the pain and the mind games played been the same (they're nuts)
They just pulled a PICC line right outta my vein (argh)
Another bridge burned, they want a back door
They wanna smile in your face when you at war
They'll leave you on red, when you need help most (shady)
Half my friends in jail, but I still sell dope (yeah)
We ain't got no hope, it's hard to pray (it's hard to pray)
When you're constantly betrayed in a world full of hate (full of hate)
They try and tell me, "Have faith" (have faith)
Then turn around and act fake (act fake)
They kick you when you're down and leave you in the dust
It's sad, but they don't give a fuck about us
We're living in a rush, forget about trust
'Cause they don't give a fuck about us
It's all about bread, they wanna see you dead or in debt
And they don't give a fuck about us
Tell the world to calm down, I'm tryna stick around
But they don't give a fuck about us
(They ain't give a fuck about us)
(They ain't give a fuck about us)
(But when I start to rise)
(A hero in they children's eyes)
(Now they give a fuck about us)
(If I choose to ride, thuggin' 'til the day I die)
(Nobody gives a fuck about us)
(But when I start to rise)
(A hero in they children's eyes)
(Now they give a fuck about us)
(If I choose to ride, thuggin' 'til the day I die)
(Nobody gives a fuck about us)
