Not a Trend
Lyrics
I don't stand for no police don't give salutes
Got my back against the wall you know I'm praying they don't shoot
Four hundred years of running and we still ain't even pass
The race a little harder and it's simply cause we black
Reclaim my time take it back they slamming us to the mat and beating us with batons forgetting all of the facts
Telling me that you riding and saying it's til the end
Cause baby this blm is simply just not a trend
Maybe go tell a friend, nah tell the world
Bout how they killing our brothers don't cherish our little girls
Our mothers rocked us in cradles and told us we could be kings
While fathers are down the aisle still holding on to they queens
We holding on to a dream we hoping can see the light
Through these unbearable times we praying all through the night
That the youngins make it home priority important
Not worried bout the gang rather the law enforcement
They lock us up and shackle us down like a slave trade
Matter fact to get that far would be a great day
Kill us in the middle of the street cold blood on the pavement
Make it home for dinner oh man it’s amazing
Protect and serve what I don’t feel safe
Black skin hit the jackpot like a sweepstakes
Shot a bullseye on the target it’s a field day
Hold ya badge high so the bail you ain’t gotta pay
I don't stand for no police don't give salutes
Got my back against the wall you know I'm praying they don't shoot
Four hundred years of running and we still ain't even pass
The race a little harder and it's simply cause we black
Reclaim my time take it back they slamming us to the mat and beating us with batons forgetting all of the facts
Telling me that you riding and saying it's til the end
Cause baby this blm is simply just not a trend
Yo free Breonnas killers man
Now how they sound when them suckers never went in because the victim was brown
They was on Floyd an entire eight forty six
I done went to city hall like bad shooters starts throwing bricks
We ain’t getting no justice they ain’t getting no peace
And it’s permanent none of my brothers going to sleep
Spark change for real we was marching all through the streets
With the sisters foundation arms up in arms reach
Ten toes down big heart militant like a missile
Ply pressure on em make em crack having me feeling little
On the front lines diamond in the rough and we stand tough
Couldn’t kill us if you tried cause we always getting up
United we stand divided we fall
Black lives matter we conquering all
We gotta shoot back if they clap first any means necessary put em in a black hearse
I don't stand for no police don't give salutes
Got my back against the wall you know I'm praying they don't shoot
Four hundred years of running and we still ain't even pass
The race a little harder and it's simply cause we black
Reclaim my time take it back they slamming us to the mat and beating us with batons forgetting all of the facts
Telling me that you riding and saying it's til the end
Cause baby this blm is simply just not a trend
I don't stand for no police don't give salutes
Got my back against the wall you know I'm praying they don't shoot
Four hundred years of running and we still ain't even pass
The race a little harder and it's simply cause we black
Reclaim my time take it back they slamming us to the mat and beating us with batons forgetting all of the facts
Telling me that you riding and saying it's til the end
Cause baby this blm is simply just not a trend
Maybe go tell a friend, nah tell the world
