Shut-Up Video (MV)

Dressed like
I'm finna rob a liquor sto'
All black, black skin
With my hoodie on
Unshaven
Edge up is nearly gone
You wouldn't even think that
I teach at Vaughn
Middle school
Dressed like a criminal
Living smooth
But I look like a twisted screw
Because society assumes
Based on visions shown
If it ain't what we expect
Then it is wrong
Guilty,
'Till proven otherwise
If I had OJ's lawyers
I'd get away with crime
But I don't
So my innocence is ever left to die
I never broke a law
But I'd probably be facing life, uh
There's more to me than my hue
Than my hue
I try to act civilized
But they don't understand my view
I don't act black
Nor do I even act like you
I'm an anomaly standing alone
In the middle of the room
Ooohhh
We don't wanna hear ya
We already seen enough
You don't have to say a word
We already know what's up
Ooohhh
Go ahead and get outta here, here
We don't even want you here
So keep your mouth closed
Uh
Got me afraid to share my faith
Wait
I mean they try to make me hide 'em
Say put him away
Rap about Jesus
You'll never meet the fame
You'll never make any money
Don't get into this game
This game will eat you alive
No one will even hear
You're imperfect
But your Christians try to condemn
You can try to sell a mill
But your chances are slim
Why don't you be like
Fred Hammond or the rest of them
I'm driven by purpose
But hindered by worthless forces
Trying to put me in a box
Tryna shift my course, its
Preposterous for me to change what I believe
To listen to people
Who ain't on the same level as me, uh
I can rap in a church
And turn rap into worship
To glorify Jesus
Who came to this planet to purge it
But before I open my mouth
They laughing at me
My words can save 'em
But their prejudice
Happens to sing
Ooohhh
We don't wanna hear ya
We already seen enough
You don't have to say a word
We already know what's up
Ooohhh
Go ahead and get outta here, here
We don't even want you here
So keep your mouth closed
Uh
I'll never please anyone
But luckily
I don't wanna please none of yall
Seeking validation
Is how you get caught
It's how you lose yourself
In opinions of who you are
By other people
Who ain't supporting you
They're hating everything you do
Because they're nothing too
Killing dreamers
They gotta gun like their gonna shoot
They making noise, but they're false
A Donald trumpet toon
So I'm never hesitant
Words are irrelevant
To where I'm going
So I'm rejecting them
Every haiku, parable
Paragraph which is spent
To discourage me
It's a waste of your money
Take back your cents, uh
I'm sharing this for the dreamers
Open up your eyes
Understand the deceivers
From the mentors
Who try to lead you to the distant season
You'll benefit from saying shut up
To all those who don't believe ya
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Shut ya mouth
Ooohhh
We don't wanna hear ya
We already seen enough
You don't have to say a word
We already know what's up
Ooohhh
Go ahead and get outta here, here
We don't even want you here
So keep your mouth closed
