Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama held me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head
That it's all in my
Out the bed and clicking my alarm
Brush my teeth put sleeves over the arms
Dreams that leave an image in my head
Better take my breakfast in the car
Late for work I'm cruising half asleep
Traffic lights and people in the street
Busy city time is moving slow
Everybody got somewhere to be
I been tuning out the voice telling me what to do
Cause the G.P.S keep interrupting my tunes
I need to flip the screen let me take in the view
Got enough bad takes in the news
Got me feeling like
The problems are several
The programing scheduled
I don't trust the federal
Or people in general
Been trying not to be too cynical
They're taking up our time that there's a limit to
They're taking all our money who they give it to
The way we see the world turning digital
All these
Profit margins
People starving
Thieves at large
But right now
I gotta look for parking
Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama hold me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head (mama hold me)
That it's all in my head
Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama hold me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head (mama hold me)
That it's all in my head
Aguas con los policรญas
Otra desaparecida
Mami no te preocupes
Nunca pueden quitarme mi vida
There's blood on the concrete
Cops got me cuffed to the backseat
Hit the gravel the sand castle that I've built
About to sink
Huh huh
Rose from the concrete
Clothes from the swap meet
Who really got me
Nobody got me
But me
But me
Huh
ACAB's only thing I graff on the wall
I dismantle it all
It's the master of all
Who will stand to the law
When the mighty will fall
Who will answer the call
It's me
Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama hold me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head (mama hold me)
That it's all in my head
Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama hold me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head (mama hold me)
That it's all in my head
When I was 16 my mama taught me about the feds
Said make the wrong moves and you might end up dead
She taught me about a kid named Trayvon Martin
Said if you black and brown then you'll end up with a target on your back
And said I want you back home
And I ain't always there just to watch your back bone
She's a single momma so I really don't wanna
Give her any more drama
And leave her here alone
When I was 17 we was skating down the block
And then we got stopped and abused by the cops
The siren made a sound
And they was acting tough
They threw Toby on the ground
And they put us all in cuffs
Emptied out our pockets and abused our fifth amendment
Then the coppers started
Then they was reaching for their weapon
Thought for a second might end up in heaven
I just don't get it
We just victims of our system
Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama hold me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head (mama hold me)
That it's all in my head
Mama told me don't talk to the feds
Mama hold me made sure I was fed
World told me that it's all in my head (mama hold me)
That it's all in my head
