Peace Lyrics by DaDeputy

Bear Your Soul

2017

[Verse: Da Deputy]
What's a black man to do but stay strapped?
Police killing us all over the map, how we suppose to react?
Young men clutching gats to keep they sanity intact
Two wrongs don't make a right, but I ain't' tryna' die tonight
Martin Luther on my right, Malcolm X on my left
Martin talking peace, Malcolm loading up the tech
Avoided gang banging, prison time and cigarettes
And now you drop the bomb that 911's a threat
Lord regret, I'm driving out one night and get pulled over
The cop get belligerent and pull it out his holster
I open the door, remove the seatbelt from my shoulder
He don't shoot me, i'ma rush him, we gon' tussle til' it's over
A lot of people like, that's a dumb thing to say
But I feel I should fight, i'ma die either way
Look, performed at Selma 50th I felt the energy
I'm tryna' figure out why we labeled the enemy

[Hook: Da Deputy]
Uh, from the west to the east
All this racism going on, gotta' cease
They want us 6 feet, instead of standing on our feet
That's why we all together, outchea' mobbin' in the streets, yelling we want..

[Hook: Crowd]
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
WE WANT, WE WANT, WE WANT
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
WE WANT, WE WANT..

[Verse: Da Deputy]
One time let me testify
Why you always make excuses tryna' justify
The fact that you just killed a boy, and just let him die
What if that was your kid and you couldn't tell em bye
And it was televised, the whole world seen it you still grieving
Then it's no justice at all you can't believe it
Yo child died for nothing, and you can't bring them back
Yo whole outlook on life never seemed so black
It's sick how they boxed us in the corner
It's cold for minorities, you walking then them on ya'
No good times we looking over our shoulders
The neighbors even calling the boys, I miss Wilona
Uh, we gotta ban together, become soldiers
The enemy's attacking and they won't stop til' it's over
Matthew 5:39, says turn the other cheek
God I'm getting weak, too much blood on these streets

[Hook: Da Deputy]
Uh, from the west to the east
All this racism going on, gotta' cease
They want us 6 feet, instead of standing on our feet
That's why we all together, outchea' mobbin' in the streets, yelling we want..

[Hook: Crowd]
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
WE WANT, WE WANT, WE WANT
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
PEACE
WE WANT, WE WANT..

[Verse: Da Deputy]
Lets cut the chatter, all lives matter including black
But all lives ain't' under attack
That quotes from Terrace Martin
That's false, I beg ya pardon
We getting slaughtered on the news
Then scripts get flipped, like we got racist views
We all human beings
Look at it this way, if aliens raged a war with earth we'd all be on the same team
Stop killing us
Stop killing us
Stop killing us
Stop killing us
Stop killing us
It's that simple, I just pray the world hear our pain
From Rodney King to Sandra Bland what's changed?
Only difference is, is it's a lot more cameras out
But that ain't' stopping cops from pulling all these hammers out
What I'm talking bout is people joining hands
Being one spreading love while we still got the chance
Cuz lately I been thinking bout visions that god gave Noah
What if he cleared this whole entire world and started over
