[Verse 1]
The wall between us is still there, but me and you can wreck it
Racism is still alive
And just when you think it's dead the police comes and resurrect it
Keeping threatening black lives
But we ain't scared so we're protesting
Fighting for our own protection
And if they keep asking why we need that shield for
Answer this question "can you have my back and become my friends?"
Course not... we're black so why would you dirt ya hands?
Lemme change the weather 'cause my Mama wanna see her son shine (sunshine)
Make it and avoid the Thug Life
But when they have a shot to investigate, somehow they'll suspect the gun's mine
But I'm innocent to the case
My music so loud the feds came
Prolly' bumpin' out N.W.A
My stereotype will make 'em think I have the same behavior way
I'm going insane, praying to the Lord they don't get me one day, catch me if you can
[Hook]
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
I'll give a piece of mind, you'll give a piece of mind
Then freedom and peace can be yours and mine (lovely)
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
[Verse 2]
When it comes to our race nobody wins
These handcuffs are not comfortable and never been
We fight until they let justice in
But what it seems is that the law tries to cancel all the rings
Basically they were trynna prove that Mike Brown deserved to die
Seeking all the ways to show that he's the bad guy
And expose that his innocence is a lie
But really his skin color's indecency is a lot, why?
I just gotta be strong but sometimes I just break down
Like how can they shot my brother while he's on the ground?
Rest in Peace Oscar Grant
If heaven really got a ghetto I just hope there's no cop's around
But if does, well... I hope justice prevail
My brodie broke and the fam lacks cheese for bail
It's not fuck cops, it's fuck injustice, fuck jail, fuck corruption
We really trynna avoid black skin eruption
In the streets and avenues
Bring the peace and we'll be having news
One time for each mind, better take the piece that you haven't knew
1 call at least and I'll be there for you, brother
[Hook]
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
I'll give a piece of mind, you'll give a piece of mind
Then freedom and peace can be yours and mine (lovely)
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
[Interlude]
No more Brothers in jail! OFF THE PIGS! Pigs are gonna get killed! OFF THE PIGS! No more pigs in our community! OFF THE PIGS! No more pigs in our community! OFF THE PIGS! The Revolution has come! OFF THE PIGS! Time to pick up the gun! OFF THE PIGS! OFF THE PIGS!
[Verse 3]
It takes us an explosive heart and determination
To be soldiers enough to annihilate the segregation
And participate in a pacification war
And have the courage to go get justice's key-door
Have enough balls but not to play against your nation
This ain't no World Cup where there's a lot of teams you be facing
Give something to offer, not demand freedom for your brother
And the next day in the hood keep killing each other
I know life is hard, but you gotta find the best ways to face
If you run away from your problems you'll never beat that race
Still asphyxiation won't help me
Rest in Peace Eric Garner, I still can't breathe
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
Still pull the hoodie up for Trayvon Martin
Martin Luther King's offspring
One time for my bro's that's Muslims
Stand for something or fall anything, X
[Hook]
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
I'll give a piece of mind, you'll give a piece of mind
Then freedom and peace can be yours and mine (lovely)
I manipulate you to come to this Party (the dress code is Black)
[Outro]
I manipulate you to come to this party (x4)
(No more Brothers in jail! Pigs are gonna get killed! No more pigs in our community!vNo more pigs in our community! The Revolution has come! Time to pick up the gun!
