lyrics

With white cops killin blacks galore /
and acts of war, hacked till the axis sore /
-- and Politicians goin back and forth /
with lies upon lies in the back a court /
-- broke ass with a wack support /
-- find the truth and attack the source /
all this shit finna crack the force /
But everybody mad at Macklemore
Where ryan at, nobody mad bout how he rides the pads /
He drives a jag, mad too polite to brag /
but lifes a drag, you could bite the bag /
He tried to help, it got em twice as mad /
Sweatshops makin reebok shoe /
And gunshots at a Tdot school /
or KDOT even though he deepok true /
Never dealt as much damage
as a screenshot do /
He sang thrift shop, why we mad like he killed pac? /
I dont even fucks with it like that, but its Hip Hop /
Let a man live, any man any tax bracket /
Any colour, any city, any bad habits /
Where's the real moments we are scared to feel? /
Why we celebrating violence while we wait to heal? /
Why we blaming entertainers who dont fight in our place? /
While we simply let our leaders fuckin lie to our face /
But this not like me. things dont phaze me /
If illy get political, shit must be crazy

...damn.
