Shut Us Down Lyrics by Amaar X Siege

2020

They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They don't want you to fly
They don't want me to fly
Don't want us to fly
Don't want us to fly
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They don't want you to fly
They don't want me to fly
Don't want us to fly
Don't want us to fly
Hate is a strong word
My mother said never use it
Love was a foreign word
My father would never use it
My brother was always in trouble
Made brothers with others that hustle
Learned a code if ever we break
It was our bones and never our faith
Never our word
Because all that we had was us in this world
Never left fam we're all that we have
Just us in this world
Tino got shot before 9th grade
Rudy got shot a few months later
Both of them died
Their mothers cried
Wish that I could've saved them
Wish that I could've changed the
Chain of events and broken the chains that
Held us as anchors
Filled us with pride and hatred for strangers
Who could've envisioned
We'd be in movies and in television
Not bad for some immigrants
Children robbed of their innocence
Grew to be leaders of influence
Never know what we'll get into next
I want to see records broken
Ceilings broken
Cycles broken
I want to see dreamers hoping
Fiends get sober
Whole team get flown in
They ain't think that we had it in us
Left us to sink and we became swimmers
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They don't want you to fly
They don't want me to fly
Don't want us to fly
Don't want us to fly
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They're trying to shut us down
Trying to shut us down
They don't want you to fly
They don't want me to fly
Don't want us to fly
Don't want us to fly
They're trying to shut us down
They're trying to shut us down
They don't want me to fly
They don't want me to fly
