Lyrics:
Get it, get it!
We wake up ten steps behind you. we wake up with your chains still around our necks
Line us up and pull the strings of your puppets. Make us dance and kill us off when you're on the the next show. Blegh.
Sacrificing who we really are. Dip us in bleach so it's easy to blend in. You wouldn't want us to be a stain on your nation (your distain for our culture)
Slap us in paint and show us off to your friends, you make your money but then make no amends. We've always been just a joke and a burden to you (but that's nothing compared to what we think of you)
You want to know why I don't sing along to your song, because every day I wake up to hear another black life has been taken away.
Breaking the laws they put in place to oppress us, just another way to segregate us (so trigger happy) because one less on the streets is a win for you.
Breaking the laws put in place to oppress us, just another way to segregate us (you lock them up) a life sentence to them ain't but a thing to you.
White washed history from beginning to end. Still treating us like we're second class citizens. You gave us a sorry, but do the same things. Still taking our land, our children. Fighting spirit yet to be broken.
Get it now? Do you see what you've done to us? Do you get it now? My people are dying as you are lying in your beds and your people are lying as we've got targets on our heads.
Breaking the laws they put in place to oppress us, just another way to segregate us (so trigger happy) because one less on the streets is a win for you.
Breaking the laws they put in place to oppress us, just another way to segregate us (you lock them up) a life sentence to them ain't but a thing to you.
You want to know why I don't sing along to your song? Because you built your nation on our backs and never recognised us.
You want to know why I don't sing along to your song? Because as long as we're still here we're gonna give you hell.
