Us vs Them

If you not from this side then fall back or something I spit a flow, its give and go I got these rappers running I only write in lowercase cause I ain't capping nothin We're slowly coming together, man look what Kapp has done He took a stand, now I'm down on one knee with my brothers and sisters F*ck the news, magazines and all the covers and pictures Enough of religion, a couple of Christians Just killed an innocent woman when she had love for the system? Its got me fucked up How can we trust them if they don't trust us And she was fighting for the same cause Tell me how you take a life when it ain't yours Tell me how you act surprised when we blame laws Tell me what they know about the struggle They ain't ever been forced to sit in the house and hustle They ain't ever been forced to grow up without their mother And watch their brothers be killed, he's trying to stay out of trouble But does he really have a choice? Baby mama aborted but shit he nearly had a boy His city is sleeping, they never hear him making noise Stuck with this feeling, its like he's filling in a void When you come from the bottom, you see your innocence destroyed He says I'm just trying to be great F*ck that, I'm just trying to be me You see the fire in my eyes, I feel inspired from defeat I told my family that we ain't gonna die up in these streets I'm finally rise up on my feet won't ever give up I ain't out to get those people back the way they did us Ever since a jit, I been fixed on the bigger picture They hate it when you make your own lane and that's why they whisper As long as I remember, the cops patrolling the streets I guess I was lucky i got on with the older G's They had my back and made sure that I was walking in peace Tell me why I ever would need to talk to police They don't wanna see you come from the gutter and shine They don't wanna see you get out of trouble and rise I came from nothing it was only my brothers and I Why do they only notice the struggle when one of us dies They don't wanna see you come from the gutter and shine They don't wanna see you get out of trouble and rise I came from nothing it was only my brothers and I Why do they only notice the struggle when one of us dies That's real
