[Verse 1: Clarence the Kid] Everyday’s a bit more hopeless When I wrote this I was all alone Just thinking bout the bones in the ocean Saltwater and my forefathers’ blood Mixing up into a hell of a potion That I saw in the eyes of my mother When she brought me in a world so corrupt, so broken It could never be repaired, she was hoping that her little black boy Could find a way to navigate through all the noise and the madness In a vast land that’ll never be content with my blackness She just wanted to protect me It’s moments like these that show me that our strong black women are a blessing So selfless, when they’re the ones t hat could use some protecting I’ve seen consistent support from our melanin sisters They ready for war with the quickness As soon as some shit popping off its with no hesitation They’ll step up to form a resistance and hold it down So who am I to feel upset about our lack of freedom When really it’s queens that will step up and lead us ‘Til justice is served to police who have fired at everyone with some color But internally we don’t check each other When we talk down on the women thats lifting us up The system is killing our brothers and sisters But when it’s the latter no one gives a fuck Breonna Taylor was the first, Sandra Bland was a maybe People still mess with Tory Lanez lame ass even after what he did to Megan Ain’t no kings here, men are trash for a reason, look at the stats Ride for women on convenience, rarely believe them, look for additional facts Damn, support is conditional This is an issue, how can we support all our blacks If there’s so much conflict within our community We on the verge of collapse I seen attacks from all over the place We ain't forget about you Oluwatoyin you were such a beautiful voice Full of hope and it hurt when the news Broke that a leader like you was found broken Disposable all at the hands of a dude That look the same as me, with the same name as me That was the story that proved to me Too many of us abuse women Too many do not include genders Outside the binary, I think it’s time to address the silence in the room When it's people like Merci and Brayla and Tatiana Why does no one wanna sign petitions? Why does no one wanna get it trending? I’m disgusted cuz not all of us are in this with the right intentions BLM is the message, not just for men and women but for everybody Regardless of sexual preference or gender expression We in this battle together ‘Til we get better at fighting internal oppression Inside of our circle, we’ll never be free Imprisoned by hatred and lack of acceptance We gotta be in this unanimously [Interlude: Clarence the Kid] We gotta be in this unanimously Every single black life counts Can’t say black lives matter and forget about our trans lives Forget about our gay black lives Forget about our female black lives How can we overcome the world if we can’t even overcome ourselves? [Outro: Kabwasa] Your love, stained by your blood Your love, black skin stands above Don’t let her stand alone, yeah Don’t let them stand apart
