[Intro]
Toronto
Y'all came here for a motherfuckin' show
[Verse 1]
Now there's no difference between you and I
We share the same sunshine from the same sky
When it rains, it rains on both you and I
We gotta sink or swim, now it's do or die
[Refrain]
Hashtag, bodybag
Toe tag, shot in the chest
Hashtag, bodybag
'Cause even when I'm on my last breath
[Pre-Chorus]
'Til we get reciprocity, how can we stand by?
Yesterday, I turned on the TV, I saw another man down
He was screaming, he can't breathe no more
He held his hands high
But then he got struck down, oh, he got struck down
Jump
[Chorus]
I saw the body drop (Ayy)
That's on the 6 o'clock (Ayy)
I saw the body drop (Woo)
That's on the 6 o'clock
Struck down, struck down
[Verse 2]
Now there's no difference between you and I
Same space in time that we occupy
We all just looking for a piece of the pie
We went blind, going eye for an eye
[Refrain]
Hashtag, bodybag
Toe tag, shot in the chest
Hashtag, bodybag
'Cause even when I'm on my last breath
[Pre-Chorus]
Until we get reciprocity, how can we stand by?
Yesterday, I turned on the TV, I saw another man down
He was screaming, he can't breathe no more
He held his hands high
Then he got struck down, oh, he got struck down
[Chorus]
Ayy, I saw the body drop (Woo)
That's on the 6 o'clock (Ayy)
I saw the body drop (Yeah)
That's on the 6 o'clock
Struck down, struck down
[Interlude]
Toronto, how the fuck are we feeling now?
I come here with no answers
I come here with only more questions, which is
What do you do to rectify a situation when you can recognize that that situation is failing us?
Failing each and every single one of us
When you recognize that one person is down, that means collectively, we are all failing
Yeah
They said they want war, this it
[Chorus]
Let the body drop
1, 2, 3, go
Then let the body drop (Ayy)
Then let the body drop
Then let the body, hey, drop
[Outro]
Thank you
