Statistics Lyrics by Cidi

Lost Souls - EP

2016

[Verse 1: Cidi]

Now can you tell me, do you hear the sirens?
The blue and red flashing
And a light that’s kind of blinding
Officer stepping slow, registration & license
Life is flashing before him in single moments of silence
Victim within a system of infiltrators and tyrant
While he’s compliant, blue perpetrators are violent
He thinking about a future of shining bright like a diamond
All taken away in a moment that seems so timeless
One had his hands up, the other couldn’t breath
Another was helping a troubled child in the streets
I wanna know how they feel while they watching him bleed
And if they really give a damn about destroying his dreams
Can you give me a reason?
To ya’ll there always is
For killing a civilian
A man that had a kid
Sure this is not my story, but the story of many
Similar to me with me melanin all in plenty

[Malcom X]

We must be prepared to defend ourselves, or we will continue to be a defenseless people at the mercy of a ruthless and violent, racist mob

[Verse 2: Cidi]

As I sit here under the shade of a tree
I think about the nation and all we could be
We’ve got oil for days, that’s money for weeks
But corrupt government would never use it for the streets
Instead they sit on it and put in in a suitcase
It seems what they’re doings only tailored so it suits them
Only care about wealth, they don’t care about the children
Cos if they really did we wouldn’t be at such a loose end
But I see you
In your range rover
With mansions everywhere like a rich young Hova
Your children in the best schools in countries all over
I guess they got lucky, no four leaf clover
While you sit and feed on all you can eat
A child is malnourished a result of your greed
Do you not see the pain in their eyes as they weep
Seems across every border, the darkest ones ain’t free
It’s all parallel like train tracks at your feet
It’s not rocket science or no complex feat
And I shouldn’t have to say this in 2016
It’s not target practise when you see him in the streets
Man I promised myself I wouldn’t get all political
But dead bodies in the street? Nah this shit is critical
Pitiful for you if you thinking that you’re invincible
It don’t make you any cooler man silence is hypocritical

[Outro]

Diamond Reynolds: Stay with me. We got pulled over for a busted tail light in the back and he’s covered … they killed my boyfriend. He’s licensed to carry. He was trying to get out his ID and his wallet out his pocket and he let the officer know that he had a firearm and he was reaching for his wallet and the officer just shot him in his arm

Officer: Ma’am, keep your hands where they are

Reynolds: I am sir, no worries

Officer: [Yells expletive.]

Reynolds: He just got his arm shot off. Oh my God, please don’t tell me he’s dead. Please don’t tell me my boyfriend just went like that
