Piece by Peace of Mind

歌詞

(B.o.B.:) I tried to take the high road Let by gones be by gones I tried to take the high road But now another life's gone What you expect from me? To turn the other cheek All you bring is war, asking me for peace What you expect from me, when all you bring is greed All you bring is war, asking me for peace But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece Yeah, yeah Yeah, they say let's make America great again Except for the slavery and the genocide When we kill all the native and steal their tribes And it's time we denied women's rights Talkin' 'bout great, like the AIDS outbreak Like when they brought crack cocaine to the hood Like when they brought heroin to the states Justice is not on the internet Equality don't have a twitter account The last words that a man should ever hear Should never be "Get on the ground" Our culture so misunderstood, it's cloudy up over the hood I think about packing my bags and leaving this country for good Glock, Glock in my car for your probable 'cause 'Cause even the law don't follow the law Guess it's my fault for being black A country built on my people's backs Up in first class, yeah my seat is black Even when I'm bored and I'm tryna see my past Tell me, if you had a chance, would you go back in time to see the past? Waitin', waitin', waitin' for reparation For the end of segregation All we got is a month and a television station All they teach is slavery and we celebrate it They turn the cheek if we should perish But just remember you can't spell America without Eric I tried to take the high road Let by gones be by gones I tried to take the high road But now another life's gone What you expect from me? To turn the other cheek All you bring is war, asking me for peace What you expect from me, when all you bring is greed All you bring is war, asking me for peace But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece Yeah, yeah (Big Krit:) By any means necessary Lately two many mommas out here bearing babies Really ain't safe 'round here no more Scared of the law when they head outdoors And will we ever be at peace, man? I ain't sure But for now I'm like Malcolm out the window it's simple altercation Got these motherfuckers blazin' and I ain't tryna say bye to my kinfolk They choke us out like what they need a noose for? Gentrify like fuck wherever you go Prison walls nowadays big biz Give us dope then lock us up to get riches Then send us out to a job we can't get You had that nigga flipped now you back in the system That's a cold game man, aww dog if there's a God pray she listening The president don't give a fuck about us The government don't give a fuck either They talkin' make America great again I just wanna say my piece I just want that 40 acres and mule Another promise didn't fall through Just a whole lot of propaganda and lying to me and you I tried to take the high road (B.o.B.:) I tried to take the high road Let by gones be by gones I tried to take the high road But now another life's gone What you expect from me? To turn the other cheek All you bring is war, asking me for peace What you expect from me, when all you bring is greed All you bring is war, asking me for peace But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece But now I gotta piece piece piece Yeah, yeah
