[Intro]
Maybe we should love somebody
Yep yep
Joy come in the morning
The sun rise tomorrow no matter how dark the night gets
You feel me right?
[Verse]
We gonâ still be alright
Joy come in the morning, we just gotta last for a night
The mask came off tonight
Donât matter who in the Big House
We gonâ still march and fight, word to the people! Whaddup!
My brothers still standing strong holding dey nutz
Sistaaaaahs! We built tough right? Right
Itâs super heavy though to think about these bodies
âtween the sheets Ron Isley wasnât singinâ âbout
I know the disbelief and pain that we all feeling now
Why some feel the need to wanna burn it down
Itâs understood
Ainât no fear in my heart! I only fear God!
Feel like Beast Mode with the ball
World on our back but we still gonâ go super hard for you all
Right? Right
Do it for the children, I got some things on my soul!
On my soul
Another hashtag in the streets, motherfuck it all
Donât invest your money in a business that donât fuck with yâall
Look the babies in the eye and tell âem âWeâll do betterâ
Yesterday is over, but tomorrow still waiting for us all
Yea sing that, sing that loud, how it go?
What it feel like?
Walk through the fire
All my people growing tired
Mamas fighting with they babies
They the ones to start the revolution, shit crazy
The media portray me with lies
Wanna justify how my Black folk died
They donât want hear our cries
So we set that motherfucker on fire
Crispus Attucks
They drug us through the system, America like an addict
Abuse the power I can show you a real savage
Being peaceful nowadays a little below average
I pride myself in being exceptionally well at it
Weâll play it like yâall play and let our children throw tantrums
We hear the media telling you all to fear us
They never took a day off from killing us like Ferris
All day circus, they spinning shit like Ferris
We gotta bigger wheel, our will to live is apparent
Just ask a parent
Weâre living in America but ainât paying the same rent
We need progress and they still talking past tense
Where we going now? Ainât no need in backing down from shit
(What is feel like?)
Walking through the fire, all my people growing tired
Mamas fighting with they babies
They the ones to start the revolution, shit crazy
The media portray me with lies
Wanna justify how my Black folk died
They donât want hear our cries
So we set that motherfucker on fire
Walking through the fire (burn that bitch down)
All my people growing tired (we tired bruh)
Mamas fighting with they babies (we tired bruh)
They the ones to start the revolution, shit crazy
It's crazy out here (losing our minds)
Hard to get a grasp on how I feel
Shit who gon take this wheel? Weâre (losing our minds)
If we give up and donât try to build, it ainât over
We ainât (losing our minds)
The babies watching, seeing the hate and killings
I know it scare the children but (losing our minds)
Ainât an option! You ainât safe because
You make a profit, money wonât keep us from (losing our minds)
I think about it often, if we donât pay attention
I hope you know what itâll cost us (losing out minds)
The 13th got our brothers in prisons and coffins
They praying we all lose (losing our minds)
The day we do, theyâll know Nat Turner inspired the movement
They donât wanna see us (losing our mind)
Some days I think we lost it already
We broke with the levees we were (losing out minds)
I remember 9th Wonder said it, shit
What happened to the musicâs message? (Losing our minds)
We canât forget about Malcolm and Betty
We gotta stay ready or weâll be (losing our minds)
Slim pockets with no homes to live and no jobs to get
Weâll be (losing our minds)
War and racism, they hate us still
But weâll fight until, until weâre all (losing our minds)
Like The Shining or Shutter Island, pray it never get violent
My mama told me class was always stylinâ (losing our mind)
They wildinâ because Obama made it
A Black man made it better and thatâs why they hate us (losing our mind)
So never stop being what they hating, brilliant!
Keep being smart Black folk, shouts to the homie Millions! Oakland! (Losing our mind)
And to all the people that wrote in⦠you owe us!
How a porn star become the FLOTUS? (Losing our mind)
Is this what we want our girls to grow up in?
10
dis or paper thin, yâall ainât seen the light (losing our mind)
I blame your parents, they ainât raise you right
Losing our mind
Losing our mind
Losing our mind
Out of our minds
Losing our mind
Losing our mind
