Eddy Cane - Never Forget Lyrics

If history repeats itself
We cannot play the fools
Gotta learn and teach the shit
That they never teach in school
If history repeats itself
We cannot play the fools
Gotta learn and teach the shit
That they never teach in school
I can never ever ever forget
I just hope that one day I can forgive
That the only way I can go live
I gotta teach this shit down to my kids
I can never ever ever forget
I just hope that one day I can forgive
That's the only way I can go live
I gotta teach this shit down to my kids

Now this shouldn't cause no problems
But a hit dog will holler
Say trust your people, but not a pit bull
When they did nothing but guard our houses
And bring us comfort when they took it from us
Sandra Bland , Eric garner, Trayvon Martin
If I kept going I could build the World's Tallest Mountain
But somehow when we talk about it
They say damn you talk too loudly
But alive a well is The KKK
And we're still fighting around this place
Hol' up wait now before you say
Man, why you always bring up race
Cause the shit's still up in my face
Hol' up, Like a gun with a cop with no evidence
But you know that he's ready to empty it
Guilty until proven innocent
Black man, Pregnant women , Little kid
Can't even tell me what i did
This ain't even what your ancestors did
This about what the f*cking man right next to you did

If history repeats itself
We cannot play the fools
Gotta learn and teach the shit
That they never teach in school
If history repeats itself
We cannot play the fools
Gotta learn and teach the shit
That they never teach in school
I can never ever ever forget
I just hope that one day I can forgive
That the only way I can go live
I gotta teach this shit down to my kids
I can never ever ever forget
I just hope that one day I can forgive
That's the only way I can go live
That's the only way that I can go live
This shit just drive me so crazy
I feel just like Wendell Scott
My people taken for granted
Man look how far we done got
How many people have died
So many innocent lives
Man let me talk about shit hol' up
Got Rosewood down in Florida
No not the one with Morris
The one with the white woman telling stories
Too many of those to count
Hol' up you know what I'm talking about
Probably won't admit it til
You find another Emmett Till
I just hope he rushes away like Emmitt will
Wait let me chill
Cause this Hot Girl Summer is so Enticing
Better than Red Summer 1919
Matter fact I would ask what's the MOVE
But the police might blow that too
Tulsa, Wilmington, Port Chicago
Where should I grow
Where should I go
Where can I grow

If history repeats itself
We cannot play the fools
Gotta learn and teach the shit
That they never teach in school
If history repeats itself
We cannot play the fools
Gotta learn and teach the shit
That they never teach in school
I can never ever ever forget
I just hope that one day I can forgive
That the only way I can go live
I gotta teach this shit down to my kids
I can never ever ever forget
I just hope that one day I can forgive
That's the only way I can go live
That's the only way that I can go live

Please don't ever forget it
Naw don't ever forget it
So many black women missing
So many black women missing
Ain't nobody out here looking for 'em
No, Ain't nobody out here looking for 'em
They had to kill the Earth
Cause we're from the Earth
And they couldn't kill us first
Don't forget
