There’s a war outside my window all I see is pain Since Covid, I know it will never be the same These masks ain’t all the government is covering Helicopters hovering cause we don’t want to hashtag another name Mad when I picket Police see my head on the ground and wanna kick it To say racism is dead ain’t realistic Not to mention it’s backed by facts & statistics You ain’t know, how could you miss it George Floyd murdered it was one horrific scene And I said that same line back in 2017 I told em to calm down guess they ain’t know what i mean This the the same exact thing that made MLK have a dream 50 years later still waking up to this Ain’t no rope around but we’re still getting lynched The system ain’t broke, we could fix it in the day The sad reality is that it was built to be this way The said the same thing when my family a slave All they did was legalize when they throw you in cage If the system was broken then we could fix it in a day But the forefathers made sure they built it this way Now it might not be as blatant as the KKK But it’s coded in our laws and the little things they say Like the 13 amendment check the context To the prison industrial complex Judges throwing down their gavels and their gauntlets So I give truth in these sonnets Dodge hail like comets Some people still sleep like black queens in bonnets Keep egging me on and I’ll make an omelet Complain about the looters that’s been burning up the place But no remorse for why it started in the first place United we stand divided we’ll fall They take one us they’re gonn have to take us all So you can keep complaining bout how we’re causing a ruckus Let God judge us Now we want justice
