You can’t fight fire with fire I know, but at least we can turn up the flames some Every colored person ain’t dumb and all whites not racist I be judging by the mind and heart, I ain’t really into faces Fucked up, the way that we livin’ is not getting better, you gotta know how to survive Crazy, I had to tell all of my loved ones to carry a gun when they going outside Stare in the mirror whenever you drive Overprotective, go crazy for mine You gotta pay attention to the signs Seem like the blind following the blind Thinking ’bout everything that’s going on I boost security up at my home I’m with my kind if they right or they wrong I call him now, he’ll pick up the phone And it’s five in the morning, he waking up on it Tell ’em wherever I’m at, then they comin’ I see blue lights, I get scared and start runnin’ That shit be crazy, they ’posed to protect us Throw us in handcuffs and arrest us While they go home at night, that shit messed up Knowing we needed help, they neglect us Wondering who gon’ make them respect us I can see in your eye that you fed up Fuck around, got my shot, I won’t let up They know that we a problem together They know that we can storm any weather [Chorus] It’s bigger than black and white It’s a problem with the whole way of life It can’t change overnight But we gotta start somewhere Might as well gon’ ’head start here We done had a hell of a year I’ma make it count while I’m here God is the only man I fear [Verse 2] Fuck it, I’m goin’ on the front line He gon’ bust your ass if you come past that gun line You know when the storm go away, then the sun shine You gotta put your head in the game when it’s crunch time I want all my sons to grow up to be monsters I want all my daughters to show out in public Seems like we losing our country But we gotta stand up for something, so this what it comes to Every video I see on my conscience I got power, now I gotta say somethin’ Corrupted police been the problem where I’m from But I’d be lying if I said it was all of them I ain’t do this for the trend, I don’t follow them Altercations with the law, had a lot of them People speaking for the people, I’m proud of them Stick together, we can get it up out of them I can’t lie like I don’t rap about killing and dope, but I’m telling my youngins to vote I did what I did ’cause I didn’t have no choice or no hope, I was forced to just jump in and go This bullshit is all that we know, but it’s time for a change Got time to be serious, no time for no games We ain’t takin’ no more, let us go from them chains God bless they souls, every one of them names [Verse 3] They trainin’ officers to kill us, then shootin’ protestors with these rubber bullets They regular people, I know that they feel it These scars too deep to heal us What happened to COVID? Nobody remember It ain’t makin’ sense, I’m just here to vent It happen to one of your people, it’s different We get it, the system is wicked, just learn how to pick it Knowledge is power, I swear I’m a witness, I know that I’m gifted I won’t go too deep ’cause I’m scared they’ll get me Ain’t scared to admit it, some shit I can’t mention It’s people who can, well, here’s the chance I won’t take the stand, but I’ll take a stand for what I believe Must not be breathing the air that I breathe You know that the way that I bleed, you can bleed I never been a fan of police But my neighborhood know I try to keep peace So it’s only right that I get in the streets March for a reason, not just on GP Our people died for us to be free Fuck do you mean? This was a dream Now we got the power that we need to have They don’t want us with it and that’s why they mad, yeah #LilBaby #TheBiggerPicture
