Salaam Remi - No Peace Lyrics

No justice, no peace (yes)
No justice, no peace (my beautiful brothers and sisters)
No justice, no peace
No justice, no peace (only got one question)
No justice, no peace (are you ready)
No justice, no peace

I got so much trouble on my mind, huh
Look at all you little hanging with us
All this police, it'll really hit us
Niggas really got a job where it's okay to kill us?
F*ck that shit now
Nigga hit and talk, it's strict now
Don't get caught up in the glitch now
We here to stick the f*ck up in that bitch now
You aiming with us, do not try to switch now
You ain't part of the fabric or the stitch now
F*ck your systematic oppression, sit down
Like you could still hit me with your little whip now
We could make justice and we come and get it
Still f*cking unapologetic with it
Our ancestors are ducking, preventing with it
Call us we attrack results, we magnetic with it

No justice, no peace (say what, say what)
No justice, no peace (can't here y'all)
No justice, no peace (a little louder)
No justice, no peace (can't hear y'all)
No justice, no peace (say what, say what)
No justice, no peace (a little louder)
No justice, no peace (can't hear y'all)
No justice, no peace (yeah, uh, uh, check it out)

I heard blue black be the new black
They drive and survive, where they do that?
The target on my back where they shoot at
The muscle in my neck where they do that
They been dropped a bomb on a compound
That's above and beyond what us 'bout now
We been for a war without a countdown
The brothers said they gon' work it out now
The devil been a lie this whole time
I had to dig deeper than a dime in a gold mine
It's show time, I begged, bartered then stole mine
Four lines, it ain't secure
Unload the chore, the Haitians
Face the God forsaken race relations
Basically the case for reparations
In a Chevy Caprice at 6 degrees at Kevin Bacon
No justice, no peace

No justice, no peace (say what, say what)
No justice, no peace (can't here y'all)
No justice, no peace (a little louder)
No justice, no peace (can't hear y'all)
No justice, no peace (say what, say what)
No justice, no peace (a little louder)
No justice, no peace (can't hear y'all)
No justice, no peace (yeah, uh, uh, check it out)

See, you got the privilege to be colorblind
I could never not see colored lines
No colored signs written on the front door
Now they let you in but then abuse you for it
And if you try to call a spade a spade they taking your funding away
That's how they play
They do drugs, they the victim
If you do drugs, you getting booked through the system
They kids act up in school, they see the principal
If our kids act up, we met at the municipal, it's criminal
How black kids are never seen as children
We grow up too fast, becoming victims
Oversexualized or under reckless tinted
But it's our fault right? We wanted the attention
That's how you passed the buck
Don't act surprised when we act up
See the virus got us jobless and stressed a lot
Now America's on fire, the blister popped
Ain't nobody got immunity but the rest the cops
We ain't safe in our communities, arrest the cops
If Breonna can't sleep in her own damn home
Trayvon can't walk and just talk on the phone
Ahmad can't joke without being hunted then be shot like a dog
But if he was a dog, he'd probably get more love
Killers woulda spend their whole life behind bars
Buddies wanted bars and the rooms on the block
Shot Jacob Blake in the back 7 times
Said he won't comply
But didn't Floyd comply and still you kneeled out on his neck until he died but let walk by
Hop on in my ride, boom there's a surprise
The law is the law, or the law is a lie
If Breonna can't sleep and Ahmaud can't run
George can't breath and Tamir can't be young
And Elijah can't walk, Sandra can't talk
There won't be no f*cking peace out on your sidewalks

No justice, no peace (say what, say what)
No justice, no peace (can't here y'all)
No justice, no peace (a little louder)
No justice, no peace (can't hear y'all)
No justice, no peace (say what, say what)
No justice, no peace (a little louder)
No justice, no peace (can't hear y'all)
No justice, no peace (yeah, uh, uh, check it out)
