Stand Up by Tony Cobain Lyrics
V1
Damn I feel my body getting colder
A bullet to my neck and the other to the shoulder
As I lay lifeless and watch my life pass me by
Staring in his face as a tear drops down my eye
Damn
Now I wonder who will miss me
This Shit happened so fast
I only went out for some kimchi
But they hit me
Driving while black so they dismiss me
This trauma to our people
Has been constant throughout history
Uh
When will it stop, probably not
Couple of Glocks, shoot up the block
We same as the cops
Bodies will drop
Actions are dark
Hashtags n flocks ?
Shootings or march?
When will it stop?
Power to my people!!!!!
Another sequel,lyrics are lethal
Injecting through these stigmas that I see through
We are the people
Chorus
I don’t wanna get shot
I dont wanna get shot
In America living as a black
I don’t wanna get shot
I dont wanna get shot
In America living as a black
Verse 2
How did it happen? Where it begin
We must change everything with the men
Living in sin, killing our kin
Drugs to our friends
They say Our own biggest evil is within
Ugh
But let’s face its self hatred
That was passed down to us from
Past generations
We can’t erase it
Or give it shrugs
No ones to judge
But they throw us in a cage
Then label us as thugs
Damn
Living as a black man
I’m sick of my people
Being HUNTED slayed goddamn
Like we animals
Or lesser mammals
Bodies on Twitter
Fuck a handle
We gotta handle
By any means
That’s word to Malcolm
I’m Sick of this senseless shit
Black bodies gunned down
While they witness it
1000 witnesses
As they ready, aim, draw
Shooting us down
As they claim to be the law
Black murder unsolved
We Just another stat
They get paid time off
Chorus
I don’t wanna get shot
I dont wanna get shot
In America living as a black
I don’t wanna get shot
I dont wanna get shot
In America living as a black
Damn I feel my body getting colder
A bullet to my neck and the other to the shoulder
As I lay lifeless and watch my life pass me by
Staring in his face as a tear drops down my eye
Damn
Now I wonder who will miss me
This Shit happened so fast
I only went out for some kimchi
But they hit me
Driving while black so they dismiss me
This trauma to our people
Has been constant throughout history
Uh
