๐ Lyrics
No, I won't lower my voice
I'm done being silenced, I'm turning to violence
Because peace never changed a thing
So it's time we let our fists do the talking
By any means
You can't seem to see past the melanin
Can't tell if it's jealousy or ignorance
Black and proud, angry and loud
I'm everything that you complain about
You only want us around when it benefits you
But I ain't going nowhere
Why should I feel bad for who I am?
I'm proud to be everything that you hate about me
So I shouldn't react to cops blindly pulling triggers?
And I shouldn't be mad when you call me a nigga?
When we say that our lives matter, you turn it into a debate?
Well I'll make damn sure that you get it
And I won't sit back and wait
Guilty of being a black in America
Taking our lives because that's all that's left to take from us
It's all a game of power they play
But I'm tired of playing, better stay out my way
48
They wanna strip us of our culture
Don't want the pain that came with it
Without us they'd have nothing but they'll never admit it
I'm done being silenced, I'm turning to violence
Because peace never changed a thing
So it's time we let our fists do the talking
By any means
You can't seem to see past the melanin
Can't tell if it's jealousy or ignorance
Black and proud, angry and loud
I'm everything that you complain about
You only want us around when it benefits you
But I ain't going nowhere
Why should I feel bad for who I am?
I'm proud to be everything that you hate about me
So I shouldn't react to cops blindly pulling triggers?
And I shouldn't be mad when you call me a nigga?
When we say that our lives matter, you turn it into a debate?
Well I'll make damn sure that you get it
And I won't sit back and wait
Guilty of being a black in America
Taking our lives because that's all that's left to take from us
It's all a game of power they play
But I'm tired of playing, better stay out my way
48
They wanna strip us of our culture
Don't want the pain that came with it
Without us they'd have nothing but they'll never admit it
