Systematic Lyrics by Afro Dope

#SafeKeeping2

2020

[Intro]
Yo check it listen. I know I'm not a statistic unless there's credit given to the life I am living

If I question the establishment then I end up just vanishing / Blaming y'all abandonment

[Verse 1]
Black Panthers, don't have to pander / Just another chapter, unnatural disaster / Can we avenge for the blood that was plastered / Or are we no better than them as the attackers?

Police are the new terrorist / News adding embellishment / Just to make it decorative / They deserve it we melanin / Yo I am sensing negligence / You think of us as venison / Knocking at the door of equality you gon let us in?

[Hook]
We stuck up in a system where they wanted us in prison / It was a successful mission they supervise how we living / Minority, prison majority, no authority / Mimicking my work of art that's forgery / Black magic gotta be bad? That's sorcery / Struggle all in the stanza that's poetry /
Fans get excited by the real that's dopamine / Forced to listen to your fake truth that's torturing

[Verse 2]
Imagine if Nat Turner could tote a burner / That's me on the microphone, straight murder / Yo wish you were in my shoes not vice versa / It's time to boss up or at least be a worker

Oldheads holding on to the past / That was part of they life, so I can't be mad / Why would I put em down I should be greatful and glad for the fact / They went through it so I ain't have to go through that

Can I blame you for what your ancestors did? / I don't know if that's the way I wanna live. / If you had to choose fight back or submit? / I can only take so much before I flip

Systematic, disrespect is automatic / Tell me just bury the hatchet and forget it ever happen / All that I can say is tragic cause you moving off of habit / Did you miss the history lesson of the schematics

[Hook]
We stuck up in a system where they wanted us in prison / It was a successful mission they supervise how we living / Minority, prison majority, no authority / Mimicking my work of art that's forgery / Black magic gotta be bad? That's sorcery / Struggle all in the stanza that's poetry /
Fans get excited by the real that's dopamine / Forced to listen to your fake truth that's torturing

[Outro]
Its not complex to view my everyday struggles RIP to Nipsey Hussle / Underground on lock like a trap tunnel / Secure bags all year and I won't fumble
