Fidgety

Had to turn the news off, got me feelin fidgety We in a Quagmire, but no giggity The blood dry Black on the Street, no diggity And I don't hear the help comin', it's so crickety Listening ? They're not Both sides have hope, we all want it to stop Ours is 'bout the violence, politics and dirty cops Theirs is 'bout protestin' cause news of it lowers stocks So they create other distractions and bury us with the rocks I'm curious if they even understand what the worry is Or if they take it serious The bubble gon' pop cause the people are furious In the age of smartphones we need less help to tell what the story is Until victory is within our reach and the sun shine glorious Every day there's more of us Hopin' that there's more to this How my people gon' pay for high power lawyers when they can barely afford a fifth Missed the court date cause no gas and now they forfeitin' Six feet under where they want us and we four foot in Got to see it for yourself boy, I can't force it in I'm alive, he not, guess I was fortunate Prayin' thanks to God, the demons really torturin' Lost the light on my path, then He came through torchin' it Workin' on myself for when someone's insubordinate My response, to the trigger, sometimes disproportionate That's why I keep it low key and stress free Prefer to go out where they don't know me and that's key I be in my bag, my lonely's refreshing Gettin' lost in thought, I owe me this blessing Yopp The Copper's caught another body And after review by Homi' They refuse release of findings But that releases the violence Muzzles to mute and silence AdSeg confinements and reconsignments And still missin' what the sign says Please read the signage Decrease the carnage Release from bondage The part of your soul that's honest Nothin' beyond this I know this is tart But that's where it start Not without a change a heart When everybody do their part Will the seas seem to part 'Til then seize and depart The way it's done is an art Every days a new canvas I need true answers Study while they do dances Tools brandish Blue manage To do damage and screw families Be glad it was caught on dudes cameras It's crazy out It's not hazy cause they light They light cause it's hazy out They don't tell you to put it out Nahh, they just put you out Up early on a paper route Or tryin' to get a run in Productive member of society Dead after a run-in Cell phone in the hand That they swore there was a gun in And that's how it be In the land of the brave No, we're not free
