Sevin - Eracism lyrics

[Intro monologue] [Illuminate] Before we went on that Pray for my Hood tour man, my eyes wuzn't really open to everything that's going on right now. But from all of you giving me the game and by us being discriminated against, by me being the only one that was not African American in the circle and seein' how we wasn't seated properly, seein' how people was discriminatin', and seein' how there was jus'...immediate judgment, God really opened my eyes to racism that's really alive right now, today. And as yo' brotha in Christ, I make a vow to stand with y'all to fight this thing, so let's erase this racism... (Amen) (That's true) (Straight up) Intro [Illuminate] I know that this is a real sensitive subject And you might not even think that I shouldn't speak on it So whenever God reveals something to me We gotta do somethin' about it Let's erase it... [Illuminate] I'm seein' the oppression of the people some police Ain't even legal But they got the public scared To go an' shout it from the steeple I'ma go an' say it Coz I can no longer take it I've been known to cross the states And I've witnessed that racial hatred You can can go and hate it You can choose to embrace it It's rippin' my heart Naked Coz the topic here is sacred And it's clear facts But this world ain't tryna hear facts The Masons and the Klan is cliqued up tryna k** blacks They keepin' us enslaved But now it's mentally--got us caged up An' it's been that way for centuries Modern-day plantations of these mental penitentiaries The way this world is turnin' ain't never how it was meant to be Go back to Genesis Check out the arch-nemesis He robs us of our peace but he never replenishes He's the father of every lie in the world And that darkness comin' at us Is disguised as a pearl So pay attention [Hook: Esraelia] Is it The color of my skin Or my grey easy hair That makes you feel some type of way Or wait you think that it's okay To push me down But I'm not stayin' on in sighs So let's erase all this racism And let his truth come free our minds [Sevin] Sevin Brother Yeah For real I'm down to get k**ed for the real that I'm speakin' in fact You can hate it But it needs to be stated man Jesus was black Check the history You can see with the clearest of proof God is perfect an' deservin' to be worshipped In Spirit an' truth Black boys be callin' me white White boys be callin' me n***a I ain't fit in man My mixed skin havin' me feelin' disfigured My truthful heritage wuzn't in encyclopedias I was doomed to inherit what they depict inside the media God! Buffoons dancin' their jig To entertain some whites Sellin' out they own people to live that 'famous' life Perpetuatin' behaviors that cause us pain an' strife Till we rather retain some ice than regain our rights? Albert Pike the masonic leader and the KKK Look up his political ties You'll see the way they play Systematic genocide of the people of color The Luciferians and Aryans sleep with each other [Hook: Esraelia] Is it The color of my skin Or my grey easy hair That makes you feel some type of way Or wait you think that it's okay To push me down But I'm not stayin' on in sighs So let's erase all this racism And let his truth come free our minds [Faith Pettis] Head up While I'm walkin' in the mall People split like the Red Sea Was it the color that they saw? They clutchin' they purses As if I was young an' thirsty Like my people went on hangin' on branches In front of churches They treat us like colored skin was made of sin And deemed worthless My heart ain't bad They can't seem to get past what they see on the surface I tell 'em 'God bless you' And just keep walking with purpose They say 'Get over it' With no relief from the hurtin' Still gettin' pulled over Beaten up Illegally searched And cousin got k**ed by cops They told his mama They did her a service Three shots to the head Closed casket in the service No one was charged What's done in the dark Will rise to the surface... We're still hurtin' [Hook: Esraelia] Is it The color of my skin Or my grey easy hair That makes you feel some type of way Or wait you think that it's okay To push me down But I'm not stayin' on in sighs So let's erase all this racism And let his truth come free our minds [Outro Exerpt: Martin Luther King Jr, "I Have A Dream" Speech] I have a dream That one day On the red fields of Georgia The sons of former slaves And the sons of former slave-officers will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood I have a dream... My four little children Will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin But by the content of their character I have a dream [Outro: Illuminate] Every single one of us can make a difference in this world So let's erase this racism And turn to Christ
