Being born black in America
Your facing a death sentence
In Several different ways
Your life is going to be threatened
Mostly everything in America had some racial history behind it
But the only history you’ll hear is that Martin Luther King decided to fight it
Or that Rosa Parks got on bus and sat up front
And the whites didn’t like it
Why aren’t we taught about Malcom X liberations
I tell you why
The white government has an act for feeding a quarter of a statement
They don’t teach about Malcom because he challenged all these cases
His claim to fame didn’t come cause he was born Caucasian and racist
It came Because he was a black man educated enough to make real changes
And that’s why he’s not taught
All of black history has simply been fabricated
And it doesn’t stop there America is still extremely racist
They just found better ways to hide this discrimination
Like using mass incarceration to lock up black faces
And putting crack in the poor communities
Where they could barely afford to eat
Give them one little Taste
And now there hooked on the street
Cops harass and beat blacks and lock em up on petty crimes
Then when they get out they can’t a job cause of all this lost time
So they have no choice but to go out and sell a dime
The cycle just continues
My life isn’t even mine
Since the day I was born
I’ve been living on Borrowed time
One way or another
I’m set to meet my demise
Now America let me ask you
Why do you feel so threatened by my life
Why does the color of your skin
Make you think that your in the right
That you can use every possible way
To kill blacks and it’s alright
I won’t sit idly by and watch as the injustices continue
It’s time for it to end I just hope this message gets through to you
