lyrics

VERSE 1
I heard you all outraged but don’t no one believe it though
your righteous indignation stagnated after week or so

So Now you want to keep it low but I’m the one that peeped it yo
The disrespect they show is so flagrant because you let em know

That you ain’t down to sacrifice nothing..you niggas will die bluffing
You fronting but all you turkeys full of stuffing

It’s plain to see that you value pop culture more than your dignity
It kind of sickens me these examples of your timidity

The nfl just took a straight dump in your plate
Then made you eat half of that shit and threw the rest in your face

You made excuses for abuses and you did it with haste
By talking bout if we don’t eat it, it’ll be such a waste

No need to wonder why... I saw them make you swallow your pride
Colin took a stand but you won’t even stand by his side

And you can’t even see the reason why we always dissed
Cause our priorities are fucked up from shit like this

CHORUS:
chorus:
There’s a reason why they don’t believe you’re outraged
Cause all they have to do is wait just a couple of days

When all of ya’ll just go back to your passive ways
Then it’s back to shitting on you until the next phase

VERSE:
It ain’t the drugs, guns or poverty or even the cops that shot at me
It’s the narrative they use to confuse and to fucking lie to me

The saddest day when I woke up to face the realization
That most of us are addicted to all the colonization

Our participation makes all of the shit that we’re facing worse
A cascade effect the superstitious say that we’re cursed

Yall let a coon moonwalk on the graves of the ancestors
And put them on the hook while you shielded the oppressors

That resentment you harbor had you cursing our forefathers
When if shit kicked off today half you cowards just wouldn’t bother

You not chained, you can read, and get your hands on a gat
But everyday you’re disrespected and still don’t know how to act

Before the fight even get started you pussies yelling retreat
Pretending Kanye is so deep because you fuck with his beats

And I’m supposed to believe you coloreds really down with the ruckus
Can’t even organize the boycotts of the ones that say fuck us


CHORUS
There’s a reason why they don’t believe you’re outraged
Cause all they have to do is wait just a couple of days

When all of ya’ll just go back to your passive ways
Then it’s back to shitting on you until the next phase
