$olomon - Black & Blue Lyrics

"It's been what? 500 years? And you still want my people to live in fear
And keep our heads down and our mouths shut
While we still get gunned down when have our hands up
But white America you can f*cking suck my right and my left nut
And don't forget to swallow bitch
Protect and serve, only if you white
But for us a f*cking broken tail light is enough to cost you your life
And this ain't anything new it just ain't on the news
So come on Trump walk a mile in our shoes
And I bet you take them shits off cuz
There's no Gellin for this shit
While you in your penthouse we living in hell in this bitch
And I never really raise my voice but god damn this got me pissed
Yeah... Black and blue, blue and black
I'm bout to turn these streets into Iraq
Black and blue, blue and black
I'm prolly gonna die fighting back
Black and blue, blue and black
I'm bout to turn these streets into Iraq
Black and blue, blue and black
I'm prolly gonna die fighting back
And you won't even admit that my life matters
But it's been like this for centuries it's nothing new
So brother next time you get pulled over this is what you do
First keep your composure and keep both hands on the wheel and in view
Have your insurance and ID out and at the ready
Because an officer will always find an excuse to act petty
I know it's hard to do but you always gotta be on you P's and Q's
Whatever you do don't run
This is what my pops told me and what imma have tell my son
They think they own you cuz they legally carry guns
And they think it's fun to use you as target practice cuz they only get increased funds
And to all you privileged folks who are softer than Polkes
Don't act like you know what it's like to have someone not value your life
I mean ya'll still idolize a president who introduced crack
So blow you whistle as I do jumping jacks while gettin' whipped on my back
I'm tired of my people going to the store and never coming back
I'm tired of my people going to the store and never f*cking coming back (big facts)
Black and blue, blue and black
I'm bout to turn these streets into Iraq
Black and blue, blue and black
I'm prolly gonna die fightin' back
They see me, they see my color just another unlike any other
I can't keep quiet while these issues keep getting bigger
I call him officer or sir and he responds with
Then he asks me why my kind is here like it's my fault that I'm darker than the asphalt
That he's cuffing me on without even telling me what I've done
I don't wanna have a kid in this f*cked up world because I don't wanna get that call
I'm tired of my race being demonized
Don't try to tune in
The revolution is not to be televised
We ain't been free since we came to this place
And they wonder why we tatt tears on our face
And I ain't ever been violent but I refuse my right to remain silent
Aome might say this is too real for Dollar-Sign but i say it's about damn time
(Come again) Some might say (Some might say) this is too real for Dollar-Sign
But I think (I think) that it's about f*cking time
Black and blue, blue and black. I'm bout to turn these streets into Iraq
Black and blue, blue and black I'm bout to turn these streets into Iraq
Black and blue, blue and black I'm probably gonna die fightin' back
Black and blue, blue and black I'm probably gonna die fightin' back
Black and blue, blue and black, they ain't gone stop me from fightin' back
Black and blue, blue and black, they ain't gone stop me from fightin' back
