King James by Topher Lyrics
Verse:
King james, king james
Decorated officer the one he blames
Protected a black woman from feeling the pains
Of having her throat slit demanding the claims
Of accountability, are you kidding me?
Black Lives Matter what he showed quite literally
On the court, I don't doubt your ability
But when it come truth man you lack the affinity
To rationalize with all the facts
Emotions got you assuming all us blacks
Are petrified, with 5-0 on our backs
Like we criminals born, don't know how to act
Please, we don't need your tears
Gaslight things just to please your peers
Whitе privilege and extrеmists fears
Bet that all goes away when you hear them cheers
As you travel the world making millions just to put a ball in a basket
Yet you don't talk about the conditions that keep putting babies in caskets
All the thuggin' and violence, degenerates out in our streets wreaking havoc
Hope you getting the message don't want to see another Jaslyn Adams
Speak up, and teach us to respect
Law, comply, and keep us from rejectin'
Commands police say to detect
If you will abide or be the threat
Another suspect eliminated
Short clips, big lies generated
Lifetime menace venerated
Race War, hatred you helped instigated
King james, king james
Have you ever heard about these three names
Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Carol Swain
Scholars that have broken down all these things
Take a look at the numbers it doesn't make sense
Every time there's a foul, you yelling flagrant
White cop, black man doesn't mean racist
O.J. said exercise more patience
Took the tweet down cuz it stirred hate
Naw man, you just failed with the race bait
One time for the cop out in L.A
Other day, labeled you extreme and off base
Don't be the new Shaun King
Magnetize fear for exploiting
Add context or say nothing
Either way, I just need you to know one thing
(You're next)
King james, king james
Decorated officer the one he blames
Protected a black woman from feeling the pains
Of having her throat slit demanding the claims
Of accountability, are you kidding me?
Black Lives Matter what he showed quite literally
On the court, I don't doubt your ability
But when it come truth man you lack the affinity
To rationalize with all the facts
Emotions got you assuming all us blacks
Are petrified, with 5-0 on our backs
Like we criminals born, don't know how to act
Please, we don't need your tears
Gaslight things just to please your peers

Bet that all goes away when you hear them cheers
As you travel the world making millions just to put a ball in a basket
Yet you don't talk about the conditions that keep putting babies in caskets
