Can't Be Excused
Lyrics
Yo, if you care more about the buildings and the monuments
You better be ready for the consequence
We got this monopolist who ain't cognizant
Teetering between malicious and incompetent
Mislead followers talking that nonsense
We want safety for the public, but get the opposite
Sicking unmarked goons on the populace
In democracy I've lost a lotta confidence
ICE abductions all too familiar
Kidnapping niños, rompiendo familia
Kindergarten ages, they trapping them in cages
Causing starvation, man this outrageous
Land of the free, that's the fattest lie ever told
To let the wealthy hate mongers get a clever hold
On positions of power and squash our voice
I'd rather fight for my community, that's my choice
Good or bad, win or lose
Let's not get it confused
Between what's right and what's wrong
We done all had to choose
For the folks that are real
You see love is infused
When there's hate in their blood
They can't be excused
I'mma shame all the lames 'til my casket drop
Ignorant people, you're looking like the laughingstock
All the Karen's who don't seem to be sharing this planet
You can go back to your mother's womb, for racist behavior we're not making room
Go back inside McCloskey's, you gun nazis ain't bout to be dropping bodies
They wanna be the victim, make the situation escalate
Unarmed black men murdered and they just demonstrate
White silence, they all look complicit
It's like there's a group of bigger bigots every six minutes
You get cancelled and you get cancelled
Excessive but necessary to make an example
Outta folks, whether its hate-filled personalities
Insensitive Drew's out there flapping in the breeze
Suddenly begging for forgiveness on your virtual knees
You made a choice, go ahead and deal with the penalties
Good or bad, win or lose
Let's not get it confused
Between what's right and what's wrong
We done all had to choose
For the folks that are real
You see love is infused
When there's hate in their blood
They can't be excused
To all the parents coaching their kids in white supremacy
Let it be known you have made yourself the enemy
You keep passing down your family's racial tendencies
Your downfall won't just happen coincidentally
It'll be strategized and fully prepared mentally
Eliminate the system that is what necessarily
Has to be done so we can developmentally
Create a world of freedom where people ain't preferentially
Treated all differently because of skin pigmentation
No more privileged Caucasian, one sided education
Or hollow demonstrations of black history month
The next textbook better have black history at the front
All the college jazz programs get it right from the start
You're doing more than teaching theory, it's study of black art
That's a choice to make sure that you do your part
I choose love, and that choice always right from the heart
Good or bad, win or lose
Let's not get it confused
Between what's right and what's wrong
We done all had to choose
For the folks that are real
You see love is infused
When there's hate in their blood
They can't be excused
Good or bad, win or lose
Let's not get it confused
Between what's right and what's wrong
We done all had to choose
For the folks that are real
You see love is infused
When there's hate in their blood
They can't be excused
Yo, if you care more about the buildings and the monuments
You better be ready for the consequence
We got this monopolist who ain't cognizant
Teetering between malicious and incompetent

They can't be excused
