Lynched

I don't really care how you feel about me Land of the free but it really ain't free We don't wanna die we just wanna live in peace All they wanna do is hang a nigga from a tree Damn this a tragedy Is this our fate or a fatality We just wanna live and live happily They're causally turning us into casualties We need a plan we need a strategy I need morphine for all this agony I need more green for my family The color of my skin don't even define half of me It's like twenty five percent I only f*ck with real niggas solid as cement Murder murder murder it's obvious as this I need an exorcism I'm embodying this shit Now let me body it I just wanna live life to the fullest Loss so many niggas that died by a bullet Loss so many niggas that was lost in the streets And my father always told me never talk to police This is as bad as it gets We just want freedom we're not asking for shit I can steal a little candy and get twenty five to life You can kill a whole family get a slap on the wrist See that's the difference We don't care about your opinion Martin had a dream and I listened Dreams don't come true without ambition Black lives matter is the mission We lose our lives while they just lose their pension I hear my ancestors in the distance Having flashbacks to when they lynched them damn I don't really care how you feel about me I don't care how you feel about me Land of the free but it really ain't free Oh no it really ain't free We don't wanna die we just wanna live in peace We don't wanna die we just want peace All they wanna do is hang a nigga from a tree Oh no hang me from a tree We don't wanna be property Don't wanna live in poverty I am the prodigy I just hope I make y'all proud of me F*ck your philosophy You are not Socrates They put us in the dirt like poppy seeds But we did not grow into poppy trees Honestly you know it's quality over quantity Voice like a mockingbird so what's with all this mockery While grandma was inside cooking collard greens She told me they will beat you black and blue long as their dollars green Father please forgive me for I have sinned Are you available so I can make an amends I get down on my knees to pray and say amen That water that you walked on I just hopped in to swim I'll bathe in that holy water until my soul is cleansed The humans you created are killing us cause our skin I'll never break my back for a person that wouldn't bend Backwards for me but now are we actually free I don't really care how you feel about me I don't care how you feel about me Land of the free but it really ain't free Oh no it really ain't free We don't wanna die we just wanna live in peace We don't wanna die we just want peace All they wanna do is hang a nigga from a tree Oh no hang me from a tree
