When Living Is A Threat Remixed (feat. V Torres)

A hard knock at the door shook my eyes open We didn't answer but behind it was about 5 of them My father's whispers to my brothers That we need to leave We went for the window but a bullet shot through his knees We screamed as the ice team breached I locked the bedroom door as blood flowed underneath My brothers said open it and I said we need to go I went through the window but he froze and stayed home I heard my brothers scream as he was pulled away That sound is a pain that I still can't explain Why are we looked at as a fatal disease When the cure is a United American Dream And If I was white that this wouldn't happen to me Guess I realized the flag isn't meant for me I guess my life only matters to me Living another day Freedom looks differently This may be my story But I'm speaking for you Speaking for you Society is more color blind than you thought Today I guess we forgot about the Kerner Report Cities raised their voice through the violence After a Cop killed a black who was defiant They rioted to burn the racism in the ground They try to silence our voice and ignore that we have a sound Tired fighting just to live good life and Treated equal is a mirage and they lied then The money decides and divides us all Eliminate the middle class and watch it all fall They want to make it great again Incarcerate em all until they can be slaves again It's different racism now. it's systematic Hit they're wallet and what watch em all go into havoc Let em kill each other watch em go it a panic Make em go extinct that always the plan Living another day Freedom looks differently This may be my story But I'm speaking for you Speaking for you
