Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop
Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop
Stop
Out on bail, still here, but I'm barely breathing
I got resuscitated then I took another beating (put him on the floor)
I'm on the run till I'm finally free
But that's a long road
You gon' be running for weeks
And when I get there
I bet they'll surround me and scream
Put ya head down and ya hands up
Or the trigger will squeeze
'Cause now they're losing grip
And they ain't gon' let me slide if they ever catch me slippin'?
Listen
They wanna make me a statistic
Build a wall with the odds and then push me up against it
No respect for authority
'Cause they making headlines out of dead minorities
I want peace
I want blood
I want tragedy
I want love
It ain't black and white
If you're living right between
What it is and once was
I want blood
I want blood
It ain't black and white
If you're living right between
What it is and once was
I want blood
Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop
Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop
I'm a premeditated felony
There's one in four black men in jail, that's what they telling me, uh
The funny thing
Is everything
Don't mean a thing
When you born in this world without anything
So
Don't be surprised when we mobilize
Then go to war with an army of soldiers that ain't afraid to die
Am I scared? Bitch, please
You either ride or you die, never live on your knees
I want peace
I want blood
I want tragedy
I want love
It ain't black and white
If you're living right between
What it is and once was
I want blood
I want blood
It ain't black and white
If you're living right between
What it is and once was
I want blood
(I want blood)
(I want blood)
(I want blood)
The system ain't broke, they just built it that way
(Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop)
And you wasting hope waiting for it to change
(Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop)
The system ain't broke, they just built it that way
(Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop)
And you wasting hope waiting for it to change
Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop (you can hear the pin drop)
Shh, quiet, you can hear the pin drop (shh, quiet)
I want peace
I want blood
I want tragedy
I want love
It ain't black and white
If you're living right between
What it is and once was
I want blood
I want blood
It ain't black and white
If you're living right between
What it is and once was
I want blood
