NOW Lyrics by Rob Riley

2023

Verse
Let me set the record straight
For any ever speculate
Cause if I hesitate any longer
On it they’ll meditate
Consciousness telling me to wait
Let em hate
No more will I let em say
Whatever they saying
Playing in my face
My people in the streets
Laying on they face
Overseer on they neck
I can’t breathes what they saying
Redlined
Given high sentencing
Fed time
They ain’t even held accountable
For their crimes
No wonder cities on fire
We can’t take being lied ta
Patient our whole lives
Now the times up
My fist in the air right beside em
We ain’t marching, we rioting
Loud and proud
No more quiet as kept

Hook (Tana & Rob Riley)
There’s really no more
Time to waste
We want our justice now
This right here is the
Time and place
Just give it to me now
Give it to us
Now

Verse (Scott Saunders)
Let’s go
Ah
We freedom fighters
No marching, we taking some action
Hit ‘em where it hurts
Their pockets, we making it happen
They gone hear us out
One way or another my brothers
My sisters for all the fallen soldiers
We miss ya
We were in the middle of combat
We invaded…
Every country, including Iraq
They bomb first, so we bombed back
According to them (what?)
That’s the narrative that they choose to spin
Uh, I mean certainly I don’t gang bang
I’m not a crip though/crypto blood money
I’m talkin currency
We go to war for that dollar
In God we trust
The truth is they lied to us

Hook
Give it to us
Now
So many died on their knees
And we tired of seeing it
Now
So many cried in the streets
Mama falling to her knees
Right Now
How many times can we see it
‘Fore we all feel defeated
Right now
Right now
Just give it to us

Verse
We tired
Mixed with confusion
Making ya lose it
A Molotov cocktail
Steaming with no solution
News is a nuisance
Media controlled, bullshit
If we even look alive
They got us tying our nooses
Business is booming
Got us morherfuckers
Right where they want us
Show em we don’t need em
They remind us of Tulsa
Neighborhoods go up
Move bombings, explosives
National guard at your front door
And no one noticed
They gave you panic
Pandemic and rations
All to keep us passive and inactive
No more are we falling for it
We’re standing
Together we’ve won
Motherfucker you times up

Hook
There’s really no more
Time to waste
We want our justice now
This right here is the
Time and place
Just give it to me now
Give it to us
Now
So many died on their knees
And we tired of seeing it
Now
So many cried in the streets
Mama falling to her knees
Right Now
How many times can we see it
‘Fore we all feel defeated
Right now
Right now
Just give it to us

Outro (R3AL D0N)

Tension
The darkness tries
To destroy the light
But the light
Comes from deep inside
Knowing that you are
King and Queen
You have the insight
To a better way…
A different plight
Keep the momentum going
Never change flight
Black Lives Matter
So we’ve gotta fight
They can’t ever take us down
Cause we are the light
Cause we are the light
