IXI
Been fightin' for survival
Your seat and your wallet, we gon' grab those
Now come see me
At the very bottom for further reference
Fast trial for early breakfast
That's why we don't regret shit
That's why we don't regret shit
Skin color as a reason for agression
So used to free rejection
That ain't a story for the public
The only way we're given to make it is to be thuggin'
So used to being close to death, the catchphrase be "fuck it"
Imagine waking up to this sensation in your stomach
Sensation of a constant fear
All that shit I'm seeing got me thinking I should cop a pair
Two pistols pre-cocked, in case my fucking knee drop
Nigga I might go down for no reason
Reason's that I'm too brown for those pigeons
The government is going in
Their moves just make me question if they sober, man
In them chambers, prolly must be pouring it
Juvie, prison, custody, in court, and them streets:
All the reasons we be growing dead
No life since the beginning
Injustice is factual, international
BLM has a different meaning to me
All I ever asked is only to Be Living, Man
Shit...
I know niggas that went robbing stores
Only 'cause they wanted their mommas to finally pop the score
Don't ask me if I fuck with the state or the police
We asked for equal time of sun, their answer was to drop a storm
Love black when it's cultural or sexual
Our place in this system is not consensual
We're the last benefiting of our own culture
That fucking life we're living here is just a long torture
Take us back God...

RIP to my people that had to go fast
To be able to be in peace, I'm not supposed to protest
Damn...
Behind them doors they say:
Pervertis tout leur message, leur donne pas trop de presse
Les médias c'est la cause en petit et la violence en grosses lettres

Je te comprends...
Crois-moi.
Je te comprends.
Viens.
Viens te reposer.
