about

Quick and dirty, not properly mixed or mastered. Speaking to the issue(s) at hand, hopefully. Paying tribute to black artists who made a huge difference for me? Definitely. Brought forth with the best intent and the utmost respect.

All proceeds will go to the Oklahoma City chapter of Black Lives Matter. So tell your friends.

lyrics

TIRED OF THE MAN WHO CAN’T SEE HIS OWN PRIVILEGE
THE MAN WHO SPEAKS RACIST AND WON’T CHANGE HIS USAGE
SIMPLY WON’T BELIEVE IN ANOTHER MAN’S EXPERIENCE
FOR HIM COLOR OF SKIN WILL DETERMINE GUILT OR INNOCENCE
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO GET HIM TO FACE IT
THE STARK, EVIL TRUTH THAT THE SYSTEM IS RACIST
ALL THE WALLS HE’S BEEN BUILDING FOR YEARS
MADE OF LIES HE ASCRIBED TO AND COLORS THAT HE FEARED

TAKE THE POWER BACK FROM THE WHITE JURIES AND JAILERS
ARREST THE COPS WHO SHOT BREANNA TAYLOR
OTHER PERPETRATORS TOO NUMEROUS TO LIST
HANGING MEN ON TREES, GOTTA FIND OUT WHO’S DOING THIS
NO CHANCE WE’LL EVER GO BACK
TO THE WAY THINGS WERE BEFORE GEORGE WAS ATTACKED
AND YEAH, I KNOW I’M A WHITE GUY
BUT LISTEN UP AS WE RECITE THE BATTLE CRY

BLACK LIVES MATTER

I WAS ONLY SIXTEEN WHEN THEY FAILED RODNEY KING
I’M FORTY-FIVE NOW AND I UNDERSTAND HOW
GESSO JURY PROTECTING WHITE FRAGILITY
PAINTING OVER BLACK SUFFERING AND RE-WRITING REALITY

SOME OF Y’ALL THINKING THAT’S WHERE IT BEGAN
BEST LISTEN TO THEIR VOICES SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND
CENTURIES OF FEAR, HATE, PAIN AND OPPRESSION
AND IT’S ALL STILL GOING SO YOU BETTER LEARN YOUR LESSON

DUDES WHO LOOK JUST LIKE JEFF SESSION
ENGAGING IN VOTER SUPPRESSION
REDRAW LINES AND CHANGE THE DISTRICTS
AFFECTING LAWS, POWER AND HISTORY
WHITE PEOPLE KEPT THEM IN POWER
NOW IT’S THE ELEVENTH HOUR
CAST YOUR VOTE TO END THE NIGHTMARE
FOR THE FREEDOM FIGHTERS
THIS IS OUR FAULT

VOTE FOR THOSE WHO CAN’T
YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND
ALL THIS DEATH OCCURRING INDIRECTLY BY YOUR HAND

TAKING A MOMENT TO TELL Y’ALL HOW SICK I AM
OF OLDER WHITE FOLKS SAYING HIP HOP AIN’T MUSIC
YOUR ASSESSMENT IS UNEDUCATED
YOUR MUSICOLOGY KNOWLEDGE IS ABBREVIATED
YOU’RE ACTING LIKE YOU CAN TELL AN ANGRY BLACK MAN
TO PACKAGE HIS FEELINGS ALL UP INSIDE A SODA CAN
ALL SWEET AND SPARKLY SO YOU CAN DRINK IT REAL EASY
CUZ YOU CAN’T HANDLE IT RAW, IT MAKES YOU SICK AND QUEASY
YOU DON’T GET THE WHOLE PICTURE IN HISTORY CLASS
WONDER WHY MILES WOULDN’T UNCLE TOM FOR YOUR ASS
COPS BUSTED HIM UP, TOO
ASSAULTED AND ARRESTED FOR CHILLIN’ OUTSIDE THE VENUE
FOR DECADES BLACK ANGER HAS BEEN BUILDING
AND YOU CRITIQUE THE MUSIC THEY USE TO EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS?
YOUR HATE OF HIP HOP IS JUST STRAIGHT UP RACIST
YOU’D RATHER BULLSHIT US THAN FACE IT
