Artist: Jace the Great Album: Do Black Lives Matter Song: Do Black Lives Matter Typed by: 4835 Records [Intro-Hook] Dear Mr. President do Black Lives Matter Or is it just chit chatter Trying to make it to the top but someone kicked over the latter [Verse 1] Dear Mr. President we're running out of patience Tuitions hit the ceiling cant afford an education Prisons are privatized and the board members are racists Using stop and frisk, to lock us up in cages Mass incarceration invading the population If it's a war on Niggas why not squeeze triggers I'll rather loose my life fighting in a war Therefore, we aint got to worry about indictments The Government set us up to fail Sent jobs over sees then gave us drugs to sell Source hearings are killing us cant make bail Stevie can see the injustices, feel us like braille [Chorus 1] Dear Mr. President do Black Lives Matter Or is it just chit chatter Trying to make it to the top But someone kicked over the latter [Verse 2] The first amendment we're giving is the freedom of speech And I'm qualified to speak on behalf of the streets Screaming justice and peace Tears running like creeks Faith have been decreased Spiritual leaders are weak Can I breathe on this beat Mr. President the systems been breached We're not anti police But we demand another way to police the police With a pen I'm a thereat Ortega Gasset "Revolt of the Masses" I don't fear death When trapped in a corner feeling like nothing left You will learn black lives matter, I aint holding my breath [Chorus 2] Dear Mr. President do Black Lives Matter Or is it just chit chatter Trying to make it to the top but someone kicked over the latter [Verse 3] Employment is decreasing Murder rate is increasing Under capitalism on ten percent is eating 90 percent is starving Written beyond the margin How do we suppose to harvest When there's blood in the garden I admit we're not trying our hardest If we did we'll be farther but regardless We wont tolerate being a target, for marksmen cause we're dark-skinned Dreaming about trying to win on park bench Change the laws of expungement Can you if you want it If you cant then who could cause in my hood they want it Police are killing us Background checks are killing us But we will survive cause aint' nobody real as us [Chorus 3] - Dear Mr. President do Black Lives Matter Or is it just chit chatter Trying to make it to the top but someone kicked over the latter - Dear Mr. President do Black Lives Matter Or is it just chit chatter Trying to make it to the top but someone kicked over the latter -Dear Mr. President This may be irrelevant Cause your inside the white house with all your embellishments But I'm fed up and somebody got to tell this shit It's a War on Niggas "VETERANS" - Dear Mr. President do Black Lives Matter Or is it just chit chatter Trying to make it to the top but someone kicked over the latter
