Eighteen
[Lyrics of "Eighteen"]
They killed Stephon in his own backyard
He was unarmed so hold that thought
They shot Ezel alone at dark
He died on the cold asphalt. Yo !
Hot damn, they done did some shit again
Shot another kid again
Choked another innocent citizen
With some pigment. These ignorant
Pigs keep killing kids on cam - what a predicament !
These killers on an iceman spree
Keep a cam, it’s quite handy
To prove what the eye can see
Another white man’s knee
Another tight hand squeeze
Another black man down begging I can’t breathe, uh !
Burn your city down to thе gritty ground huh !
Your pretty town’s looking pretty foul huh !
Thesе cowards wanna be some killers now
Hide behind they badge as they play the criminal huh !
Mike Brown got a hole in his chest
Eric Garner got strangled, yeah they choked him to death
Hands over his neck, yo, you know what he said he told em : I can’t breathe...
Racism ain’t changed, they just filming it now
They’re psychopaths with a badge and they feel they allowed to harass an innocent child
And blast him, I’m curious how ?
They deserve the wrath from a furious crowd
Let’s take action !
They only time I ever was harassed was when I was out chilling with my black friends
That’s why I’m mad. Let’s act, fight and gather
Black and White together screaming Black Lives Matter !
Burn your city down to the gritty ground huh !
Your pretty town’s looking pretty foul huh !
Bring a crowd, over 50 thou
We can take their statues down, toss em all in the canal huh !
Cause the victims will forever need a voice
We’ll forever be at war, bring your weaponry of choice
If they don’t stop the violence, we’ll forever be annoyed
Here’s a moment of silence for the memory of Floyd
