Listen Up
[Intro]
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, listen up
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, listen up
Listen up, yo
[Verse 1]
I've got no inspiration
My mind is fully pacing
My brain feels adjacent to the world, it's relaying
Punched up thoughts, got me feeling hella distraught
I'm hearing many voices, not fond of the sort
Oh man I'm sounding crazy, I promise it's a phase
I've got writer's block, flip I'm going insane
All I need is a break, some introverted space
So once I get that, I swear to God I'll feel great
Spitting hella subliminals, too much it must be criminal
Arrested development, America's political
Caging us, modеrn day enslaving us
In the mind and physical causing the ragе in us
That's it! Drop the script, bring out the cams
You better film the wrongdoings of the white man
Many years feeling oppressed, but yet, we still have the heart to forgive than subject
[Chorus]
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, listen up
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Get up because this girl's spitting facts, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, listen up
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Get up because this girl's spitting facts, yo
[Verse 2]
Fam, it's a cycle
We fight for our lives, that's survival
We fight for our rights and then we're rivals
Left hand on the Bible
Right hand in the air like we're on trial
They're witnessing our truth, but we're entitled?
I'm feeling choked up, can't breathe
Hella bodies surround me
Don't shoot, arms up
Don't shoot, please please
Don't shoot, can't breathe
Don't shoot, please please
How has this become our reality?
Seeing how life really is, what a tragedy
Let 12 be mad at me, I'm stating facts and actually
If they wanna fight, let's fight its a war ting
We're coming squaded up, blacked out, properly
They wanna lock up my brothers for the currency
Dismiss their human rights all for a colour scheme
This isn't over till we see a change
Until then, black lives matter till the end
[Chorus]
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, listen up
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Get up because this girl's spitting facts, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, listen up
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Listen up, yo
Get up because this girl's spitting facts, yo
