We cry all we do is cry now why now we cry all we do is cry now why now Pass by all you see is white brown why now Bottled up keep it all inside Been in the streets tryna find that shine Stressed out cuz my little ones crying I look up and another kid dying This world here been focused all wrong System stay breaking our home's Gotta grow will you make it till grown kinda fucked cuz you really don't know Been paying your dues staying in school On the right path tryna pick and choose Don't wanna hang out you watching the news Turn from the drama they hate what you do When times gettin worse sometime even hurts They calling you names shove you to the dirt Don't wanna fight back think it'll get worse Go home and pray hope God hear you first Speak something or there ain't no movement hashtag #Taking back our music Tired of fakes what the fuck are yall saying mumbling jumbling jigging and swaying Yall playing pretent perpetrate the fraud Soaking up fame like yall really stars Been grinding since young this shit dont come easy Fighting at war like 16 no Karina Keep your head up Brush the hate off Keep moving forward I bet it pays off Let em hate sis cuz that ain't yo problem They gone be talk while you gone be bossin Wipe up the tears throw up the deuces Cuz when you blow up bet it cause confusion They stuck in the past with the rats they was using Wishing they had you cuz now you be choosin Louis Vuitton Versace or Gucci no need for prices you swiping and groovin You running your life while they runnin away Kids taken care of aint nothing to say Tell em to bounce you calling it sway explaining to who you true and they fake Always stay humble now look where you at From rags to riches you stayed to the facts Your shine too special that why they want problems Taking they shot just see who can dog you Maybe you think that you really in love Do me a favor and stay with that glove Dont be a statistic out here let's be smart Them shooting us down was only the start They hate what they ain't tryna turn us around Keep climbing up no such thing as come down Question the masses dont stick to script Be your own person that's truly legit Follow your heart and follow your dreams They can't take your spirit or melanin gleam Pride in yourself hit em all where it hurts Stay to a grind and watch how it works taking your rights but they calling free Freedom is false till you change your beliefs
