Say Their Names Video (MV)

You'd think that we done seen it all
But everyday we seeing people who can't breathe at all
Same one who all of a sudden can't speak at all
Is telling me to chill cause I'm taking this shit too personal
But I'm a person though and still I gotta keep begging you to be merciful
And all the silence, is louder than the sirens
That's keeping us woke we don't sleep
Cause our American dreams are American nightmares
Looking for a reason to shoot but it's not there
How is the one behind the trigger the one scared
You look at us and say you color blind
In your eyes you still recognize the brown skin
White privilege, blue collars
Red blood, white hoodies and green dollars
You used to buy us enslaved and manslaughtered
The country that you repping was built by our grandfathers
But Karen and her man don't want us with their granddaughters
All we are are broke stupid ghetto thugs and robbers
But when you need a new trend to Rock you're quick to rob us
And when you need braids or good dick you're quick to call us
I'm just being honest and I know there's certain people who won't harm us
This is for the people who painting on black faces
Scared of the black places, scared of the black greatness
I'm tired of you saying dumb shit on a daily basis
"I got black friends so I know that I'm not a racist"
"I post hashtags for all of the black cases"
But do you understand
The reason we take a stand
Our life span's based on the color of our f*cking hands
If you half black then you considered half a man
You can't be the one on our side making plans if you the
Same one to see us by your car and double lock it
The same one to think there's some shit in his back pocket
The same one to see the oppression and not stop it
If your silent you're the one behind the violence
You're the one with all power
Where there's power there is guidance please

You can say you're on our side and
You can say that you've been trying
But can you say their name

You can say you see us bleeding
You can say that you've been speaking
But can you say their name

If you can say it, say this
Freedom
