We Matter Lyrics by Tribe Mafia

It’s a Tribe Ting

2022

[Intro]
My people, We Matter
My people, My people
We Matter, My people
(it's hard being black in America)
My people, We Matter
My people, My people
We Matter, My people
It's hard being black in America
God is the one that's protecting us
Tired of cops, they be killing us
Ready to shoot when they seeing us
Protest with our voice
And we done be silеnt
Did it with peace
Now we gotta bе violent
Messed the city up
Didn't wanna riot
[Music]
[Pre hook + Verse]
They be killing with our hands up
Go head' and stand up
In the air with your fist up
We gon' do it till they feel us
Do it till they understand us
Cause' they don't really understand us
We fighting back cause we fed up
And we ain't stopping til' they hear us
[Verse] Dashawn Daniels
Racist people just being hysterical
We need some change
In need of a miracle
We are the targets
They hunt us like animals
We know its war
We doing it like Hannibal
They just scared we gonna reach our pinnacle
Y'all like the virus and we are the antidote
I hope you feeling all my words its tangible
Feeling like we singled out and treated cold
White folks got all the authority
System was made condemning minorities
Black folk are not a priority
We making history
Writing the story
[Chorus]
They be killing with our hands up
Go head' and stand up
In the air with your fist up
We gon' do it till they feel us
Do it till they understand us
Cause' they don't really understand us
We fighting back cause we fed up
And we ain't stopping til' they hear us
They be killing with our hands up
Go head' and stand up
In the air with your fist up
We gon' do it till they feel us
Do it till they understand us
Cause' they don't really understand us
We fighting back cause we fed up
And we ain't stopping til' they hear us
[Verse] Chinasa Broxton
I refuse, I refuse
Can’t be silent anymore
We been hurt and abuse
Now it’s time to draw the score
We have had enough (Had enough)
Of the pain (Of the pain)
All the suffering you caused
Got a list (Got a list)
Of the names (Of the names)
Out of all the lives we lost
When will everybody recognize
We been slaved, oppressed and victimized
My skin not weapon or a crime
Someone really has to draw line
"I-can’t-breathe"
Please don’t take my life away from me
Please don’t shoot me I don’t wanna die
But I ain’t going down without a fight
But I gotta stand for what’s right
Gotta change the system it’s a lie (Oh, oh, oh)
Don’t try to silence me
Let’s stop the suffering
Toxic traits of a master race
Less talk more unity
[Chorus]
They be killing with our hands up
Go head' and stand up
In the air with your fist up
We gon' do it till they feel us
Do it till they understand us
Cause' they don't really understand us
We fighting back cause we fed up
And we ain't stopping til' they hear us
They be killing with our hands up
Go head' and stand up
In the air with your fist up
We gon' do it till they feel us
Do it till they understand us
Cause' they don't really understand us
We fighting back cause we fed up
And we ain't stopping til' they hear us
[Choir and Music Fade Out] Mr. Rey
