​by any means necessary Lyrics by Jae Stephens

2020

Pulling the trigger on another person, it's the perfect crime
'Cause the skin they're born in sets them up for life
So people sworn to serve us look away this time
Just like the last time
Is anything bigger than the badge they hide behind out on the streets?
Cutting holes for both their eyes in their white sheets
Who do you call when the killer is the police?
When 911 gets you six feet deep
Ooh, I know you see it, you don't believe it, like it was overnight
This is my story, since I was born, we've been told that we had to fight
'Cause no one's gonna fight for us, like living ain't a right for us
Now they've got all this advice for us
Never thought we'd use our voice, now they ain't gonna silence us
Any means, any means, any means necessary
Kneeling like you see on TV
Or marching through the blood on these streets
Go kicking and screaming, anything to start the healing
By any means, any means, any means necessary
Tear down all your shit that we built
Mend the broken spirits you've killed
Gon' make sure that you feel me
Give a fuck about your feelings
By any means, any means necessary
Now you think everything's fuckin' scary
"Colorblind," what a life, that don't help me
That won't help me, nah, that won't change a thing
It's not enough, it never was, to never make it known
"Apolitcal," don't absolve your wrongs
So much bigger than your little Instagram post
Trust me, with you or without you, we'll get everything we're owed
