RIOT by TheofficialATLAS Lyrics
[Intro]
(Luke White on the beat)
[Verse 1: XXXTENTACION]
You ever seen a nigga hung with a gold chain?
I'd rather sing about the same things that we claim
Such is bashful, but niggas like a task force
Mobbin' on the streets and robbin' stores in ski masks, bruh
Niggas ask for peace in a riot, then bring violence
'Cause it's a game of cat and mouse and you gon' bleed silent
What's the justice in sayin', "Fuck it," and grab the pump?
Then kill a woman with many children? Makes you a chump
Look in all the stores you wreckin', nigga, I reckon
Think about the people who own it for 'bout a second
I know you got your problems, but brother, they got theirs
This is not a game, quit violence and grow a pair
But sure, you'd rather hear me say, "Fuck the black prejudice
Let's murder different races, grow hatred, and form irrelevant
Views,” and etcetera, knives thrown
Damage 'em, lives blown, oblivion, all cold, oblivious
[Verse 2: ATLAS]
Mobbin on the streets, Looters stealing with ease, I can still hear him sayin, "Help, I can't breathe."
Killing one by one, No one can even reckon, all lives taken, with a trigger in one second
Is this the world that we wanna live in? Killing one another, just by the culture that we havin?
I can't go outside and enjoy life with a friend, without having being berated cuz the color of our skin
All I see in the news now are guns, fire, people dead. The moment someone's killed by a cop, people be seeing red
Change isn't far at all is what I'm sayin, we could build a world with peace, love, and knowledge
What better are we with the death that we're causing? We're no better than the whores of the Confeds and Nazis
No more hate, death, and difference should be created. Because it's exactly what Jahseh Onfroy would've wanted
