We the People Lyrics

[Chorus]
They want me six feet deep, they want me under the dirt
Don't want to let me breathe, they want my mama to hurt
They might know my face, they might know my name
But they don't know my past, they never felt my pain
The fuck they talkin' 'bout?
I don't wanna die, somebody pray for me
The homies in the sky, gon' have to wait
I can smell your lies, watch what you say to me
'Cause I done seen a lot of shit that I could never talk about

[Verse 1]
I don't want to hurt your feelings, why you gotta be so fragile?
We politickin' and you get offended and I look likе an asshole
Don't be surprised if you see gunmеn post outside of their business
They sick and tired of holdin' fire and they just tryin' to end it
So, pick a side, you're crucified by everybody's opinions
And keep it peaceful, 'cause the people around here armed and malicious
Protected by the amendments, I want you all in attendance
When I say that I ain't never backin' down, with God as my witness
If shit get real, I'll be right there in the field
Never folded and never will, everybody better chill
No, it won't be none of that in this little town
This ain't the place you want to fuck around
'Cause shit could happen in the midst of actions
Just imagine that people stand they ground

[Pre-Chorus]
My neighborhood, the one that had raised me and painted my character
Nothin' was good and nothin' was fair, but this is America
You get one shot in this life, pretend like you shootin' a derringer
Ain't no fuckin' with me, you come fuckin with me and I'ma embarrass ya

[Chorus]
They want me six feet deep, they want me under the dirt
Don't want to let me breathe, they want my mama to hurt
They might know my face, they might know my name
But they don't know my past, they never felt my pain
The fuck they talkin' 'bout?
I don't wanna die, somebody pray for me
The homies in the sky, gon' have to wait
I can smell your lies, watch what you say to me
'Cause I done seen a lot of shit that I could never talk about

[Verse 2]
I'm speakin' the truth and you disagree, but what can you do?
Here's a message to the lootin' ass little broke bitches that I see on the news
Whatever got you thinkin' you can come and do what you want, well, that ain't the move
Gotta protect what I built on my back, if I'm backed in the corner it's legal to shoot
Hard for you to see the other side, you ain't been a victim, all I want is rights
That ain't protests, that's a mob or riot, people shot dead just the other night
Might be misled, but let it be said, you only votin' left because they votin' right
If we all people, then we all equal, gotta come together, ain't no better time
Divided we stand, united we fall, what have we done? We are the puppets
Who are the hands? What are their plans? Who woulda thought? Who seen it comin'? (Look)
Why every time I see the police around me, I get hella nervous, like I'm doin' bad?
If I get profiled, I get pulled over, maybe handcuffed and put up in the back
But I won't resist, you can search me, I insist
Yeah, you know that's confidence, play it cool 'cause I ain't got no time for this
Yeah, then I say bye and wave and I just drive away
And that's just it, bitch, it wasn't some privilege that I ain't die today

[Outro]
My neighborhood, the one that had raised me and painted my character
Nothin' was good and nothin' was fair, but this is America
You get one shot in this life, pretend like you shootin' a derringer
Ain't no fuckin' with me, you come fuckin with me and I'ma embarrass ya
I don't wanna die, somebody pray for me
The homies in the sky, gon' have to wait
I can smell your lies, watch what you say to me
I wanna say a lot of shit that I could never talk about
