AmeriKKKa

They sold a pistol that killed a brutha, a quarter million dollars. They dont blantly call me a , so they dont know what to call us. They act like rodney king was the last time that they beatin us. But the fact of the matter is we can blame that on the media. They kill us in cold blood, n turn around n they blame us. Makin em famous, pullin pistols instead of they tasers... Now they got our own bruthas throwin salt on the movement. Slightly ammusin, u darker than me and u out here coonin. We used to wanna grow to be the ones that others look to for answers. They got us out thinkin we only basket ball players and rappers. I contributed to the steriotypes for too long to continue. So now i push my story, to help the same bruthas i vent to. I heard a brutha got chased until he died from his asthma. A disabled brutha got raped by 2 all american crackas... Shootin up churches but they get all types of immunity. I stopped bangin for my set but i WILL bang for my community. A message to AmeriKKKa, although i seem so brash... George zimmerman, when i see u imma BEAT yo ass. No one wants the stigma of being a mad black man. But when things like that happen "oh u cant be THAT mad". WHY??? It couldve been ME walking back to my house ! It couldve been me when the police choked that man out ! Yall so justified to drop bombs in Afghanistan. But if i speak out against yall i end up like sandra bland? Bruthas killin bruthas but u run from a fed? U gon run from the oppressors but shoot ur own man dead? UNITE ! United we stand united we FIGHT. For my cause i will live, and for my bruthas i DIE ! I took the nonviolent approach, now u see what happens ? But by any means necessary, u wont catch me lackin. UNITED WE STAND UNITED WE FALL ! LIVE BY THE GUN AND I DIE BY THE CAUSE ! Amerikkka, amerikkka, how pretty ur stripes.. Amerikkka, amerikkka, stop taking our lives... Bless...
