[Verse 1]
You mean to tell me God does the forgiving, but we don't?
We don't do it, who gon' show our people love? 'Cause we won't
All of these n***as ain't shit, that's the type of shit she on
And these bitches ain't shit to me, that's the type of shit he on
Buildin' each other up, why is that not the shit we on?
Bein' postive ain't cool no more, so this what we on, negative
They say we ain't shit, just stop buyin' it when they sellin' it
It's just like COVID-19, when they brеathe it, stop inhalin' it
I mean, you let thе slave driver get away with murder
But lil' shit with your people, you wanna hurt him or hurt her
If we can't stop lookin' backwards, how can we go any further?
I guess we don't wanna be bosses, we cool with bein' workers
This ain't what they died for, I'm talkin' Martin Luther 'nem
The man was preachin' peace, somebody still ended up shootin' him
Like you tryna teach love to your people, we can't leave you with them
If you tired of them killin' us, let's stop helpin' them do it then

[Chorus]
This is a plea to my people, they tryna take us out
They act like they not evil, they tryna fake us out
This is a plea for my people, it's time to come together
'Cause what I see for my people, we are forever

[Verse 2]
The mind is a terrible thing to waste
That's if you use it for the wrong thing
I know it's easier to think some weak-ass shit
That's why I'm sayin' you gotta be strong, man
My n***a, I ain't tellin' you to bow down to your enemies
I'm just tellin' you act like you grown, man
I'll never be cool with him, but when I see him in public
I ain't trippin', we both gon' make it home, man
I don't know about your Black, but my Black is beautiful, yes, it is
Sometimes, it might be painful, but it's musical, yes, it is
I wish I could say my weapon ain't on me, but, yes, it is
One of my n***as might try to rob me in the club soon as I'm steppin' in
Damn, I wish it didn't have to be like that
I'm gon' kill you if you try to roll up on me like that
Accidentally stepped on his shoes, he like, "I'll be right back"
Kill each other, they sit back and laugh and say, "We like that," haha
[Chorus]
This is a plea to my people, they tryna take us out
They act like they not evil, they tryna fake us out
This is a plea for my people, it's time to come together
'Cause what I see for my people, we are forever
