Woo
Statik Selektah
So I'm basically sayin'
That it's gonna take you, the people (Yeah)
You, the people
You, the people to institute what you want
Ayo, my family original mans from the original land
We talk biblical and spiritual jams
Traditional rituals, different when they strippin' a man
The government want every dollar and cent in your hand
Turn on the news, saw somebody lynchin' a man
I'm itchin' and cram my brain 'til I pick it again
I'm at the White House, guess I gotta picket again
I sit with my friends, prayin' with this pistol in hand
We need new leaders, but all we get is new heaters
A president who mislead us and give us different diseases
I spit my shit with a meanin' while scriptin' it like a genius
The system is intervenin', they beat on us and demean us
And I beatbox with the hollow sounds in my tummy
That Pete Rock, Statik and that Preemo do it for me
We don't do it for the money, but we always gettin' money
While you come and go, we be right here, legendary
While they puttin' incisions inside your children with the microchip
Vaccinations replacin' your nutrients and your vitamins
Black and brown fill the prison of your destiny, decided
Mass incarcerations, we can't forget what Clinton and Biden did
They all devils, sellin' off they souls on all levels
My dogs rebels, run up on a tank with a pebble
The next cop that kill an unarmed man need a public beheadin'
And televise it so nobody'll fuckin' forget it
So nobody'll fuckin' forget it
So nobody'll fuckin' forget it
So nobody'll fuckin' forget it
So nobody'll fuckin' forget it
Too Black, too strong, too powerful (Yeah)
Too busy worried 'bout doin' what they allow us to (Mm)
They can't stand us, they remand us (Uh-huh)
'Cause we break rules and set standards
We survived off the hunger (Ooh)
They want us to die, we live longer (Yes)
Right before the lightnin', there's thunder (Uh)
And we got hope, so don't wonder (Uh-uh)
Can't speed though, gotta have patience (Patience)
And every man must know his limitations (Mm)
One bullet, headshot, penetration (Ah)
Nice hole in your skull, ventilation (Uh)
Classism is the new segregation (Yeah)
They'll gentrify your hood like it's the new destination
White people come, they throw the Whole Foods up
Or the Starbucks, even have tofu cuts (Facts)
When the hood was all Black, it was just a food desert (Facts)
This is America, they gotta do better
Too many lies in the news and newsletters (Too many lies)
If the school is black, they don't
Care if it do better (They don't care)
You gotta teach the young, you gotta teach your own (Teach your own)
Gotta load your gun, you gotta reach your home (Word)
They brainwashin' niggas, don't let 'em bleach your dome (Uh-uh)
Playin' them police, I gotta keep my chrome
This is America, they gotta do better
They got, they, they, they gotta do better
This is America, they gotta do better
So nobody'll fuckin' forget it
