Nojustice nopeace by Eli Feier Lyrics
Peace on the left, justice on the right
Peace on the left, justice on the right
This is for Oscar and Tony
Tamir and Sandra
For Eric and Eric
Philando and Alton
Ahmaud and Breonna
On God even for Emmett
They shootin' my peeps for just walking in the street
Walking cross campus cops stop me for ID
“watcha doing here”
Me: just coming from the library
Parents used their life savings so schooling would find me
But when they see me in the street my blackness is blinding
Interning last summer security always eyed me
Paid guns follow me around safety not likely
I was 7 the first time called "n*gg**" by white peeps
Stanford educated they still take it so lightly
I’m a pacifist but well the world wanna fight me
We protest that they kill our people on the nightly
They throw a riot cuz they fear the almighty
Been stealing black lives since 14 and 90
So would you shut the fuck up about broken windows finally
This an opportunity for peace let’s take it rightly
But ignorance and silence is violence inciting
So imma come in here got some shit that i’m writing
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
Man fuck all police
No racist police
They shootin' our peeps for just walking in the street
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
Man fuck all police
No justice police
They shootin' my peeps for just walking in the street
Yeah us folks have fucking had it
We get killed and you get panicked
(we get killed and you get panicked)
I'm real depressed but still i'm manic
The country so bipolarized can change still happen? (chains still have us)
Yeah im fucking mad about it
White kids on the gram about it
When they give a damn about us
They just chasing clout i found out
But wouldn’t pay a dime to get my people out it
The media scared of all us niggas rabble rousing
Why can't we get the homeless housing?
Instead of billions in prisons and armies that stop the people shouting
Im frowning at the presidential clowning we crowned him
Im foaming out my motherfucking mouth (and saying)
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
My people deceased at hands of police
No justice no peace
No justice no peace
I'm sick of the news again
They spreading a ruse again
The Power abusing it
My people get used again
Only care about views i guess
I blow a fuse They talk rules again
Almost went to law school
But i'm the music man
Peace on the left, justice on the right
This is for Oscar and Tony
Tamir and Sandra
For Eric and Eric
Philando and Alton
Ahmaud and Breonna
On God even for Emmett
They shootin' my peeps for just walking in the street
Walking cross campus cops stop me for ID
“watcha doing here”
