Audyo - More Than A Color lyrics

(1st Verse) Systematically oppressed from the days when we were slaves Beaten down but not destroyed, yeah this country's what they made 100 some years ago, our people got our freedom From being in some chains for years, but the books wanna delete ‘em Man, I just heard brother Malcolm Preach to Generation X And I soon realized, that behind these lies, our situation is complex They say I'm full of Drama And no racists cuz Obama With all that family money From All my family's trauma I can't understand why the people just ignore it And they wanna take the culture I mean parts I just abhor it And they wanna look at me, like I'm the one who's wrong When they claim their black, trying to spit some facts that they heard up in a song Now I know we lost our chains But that can't mean we're free From the apathy we're taught when we get caught scrolling down our screens And you see one of your brothers, dead, held up by his mother, and you look into her eyes and this is what she sings (Chorus) Where is the Justice? When will we equal More than a Color And just be People (2x) (2nd Verse) Now I know they wanna ask me drop some fire on this beat But I wanna go and ask why I hear fire in the streets From the guns going Blah, aimed straight up at my people And the shooters getting off, you wanna tell me this is equal? You could tell me that its evil, cuz that's just what it is We got nothing to fear but fear itself, but that's no way to live When I walk outside my door afraid that it could be my last Cuz in truth, yeah, we're at war, but the villain's here and masked It's the demons from our past Tryna fight and bring us back To the days when being dumb Was a synonym for black Or to never check the facts And never check the facts Just follow with the media My flow is getting cold, I think I'll go right here and heat it up Give me a spoon so I could feed it up to y'all, so you start thinking Cuz stats say that we're on a rise But the numbers say we're shrinking Everyday another of us dies That's another sister weeping So you look into that woman's eyes and hear that woman speaking, saying Chorus: Where is the Justice? When will we equal More than a Color And just be People (7x)
