All Black by Triller, The Artist Lyrics
[Intro: Triller]
Police brutality, violence, and racism, it needs to STOP,
I'm speaking up, Lord give me the strength,
I'm speaking up
I am a proud black man,
And my voice WILL be heard whether you like it or not
[Verse 1: Triller]
Uh-uh!
Don't you stereotype me, that's disrespectful,
Better get in check, release your pressure hold,
Refuse to keep quiet any longer, this not classroom,
I'll wear the type of clothes I like, nobody gotta ask you,
You crossed the line, dang, you really F'd up,
Show them folks the numbers, like a check stub, (check stub)
You've messed up (messed up)
Better fess up,
It's only me now, but you're done when the rest come,
We don't take lightly to that prejudice shtick,
It'll get you tossed clean off the edge of a cliff,
People talk slick about the color of my skin,
But I win anyway, cause I know they wouldn't diss me in front of my kin,
You need to stop talking, (shh)
you need to watch your mouth,
Listen for a change, violence is not what I'm about,
Can't keep killin us due to the clothes we wear, (clothes we wear!)
But I'm not surprised because these folks have never been fair,
(Lord help us!)
[Hook: Triller]
People must not realize it's a free country, so
I can wear whatever I please, I don't need dummies,
To come up to me, dissin it, what you call that? (what you call that?)
I like wearin all black
People see a monster just from lookin at my race,
They thinkin I'm gone sit and let em slap me in the face,
That will never be the case, what you call that (what you call that)
I love bein all black
(All black!)
[Verse 2: Triller]
I don't look shady, I don't sag my pants, (sag my pants)
My demeanor isn't bad, you should catch a glance, (catch a glance)
I refuse to hide, I don't have a mask,
Speakin for my people is a massive task,
You racists need to stop or suffer the consequences, (consequences)
Not a big tough guy, but imma be honest witcha, (honest witcha)
Your racist words, they don't go unheard of,
We got resources that'll make you very nervous,
Can't curve us, we're all over the place, nationwide, (nationwide)
Cant even speak my mind without people thinkin that I'm takin sides,
Almighty God, these bad people tryna break my stride,
They don't want me to stand tall no more like I got an achy spine,
I don't wear all black clothes that much, only rare occasions,
I will never diss a person just because their caucasian,
Black people and white people, we both have our faults,
But shootin us ain't the answer, crooked cops need to fall,
(Die slow)
[Hook: Triller]
People must not realize it's a free country, so

They thinkin I'm gone sit and let em slap me in the face,
That will never be the case, what you call that (what you call that)

(All black!)
[Verse 3: Triller]
You put our ancestors in slavery, and you raped our women,
Centuries later we still tryna escape our villains,
But you continue to push pain on us like F our feelings,
So don't be shocked since we came back, we can break ya'll village,
Take ya'll village, (take ya'll village)
shake ya'll village, (shake ya'll village)
These racists makin us act a fool, it's they privilege, (We can)
take ya'll village, (take ya'll village)
Shake ya'll village, (shake ya'll village)
We can make it so impossible to save ya'll village, (Revenge!)
We both gotta live on this place called Earth, am I right? (Am I right?)
Ya getta kick out of hurting us, you're a samurai, (samurai)
You'll laugh and chuck alot of sand right up in our eyes, (in our eyes)
What I'm saying is not scientific like MRIs, (MRIs)
It's facts man, you don't know what it's like, (stop actin)
To be black, having to endure such hateful insight,
I broke my silence, I'm fired up, but the heat burns,
Looks like things won't get better until Jesus returns,
(Ah!!!)
[Hook: Triller]
People must not realize it's a free country, so

They thinkin I'm gone sit and let em slap me in the face,
That will never be the case, what you call that (what you call that)
I love bein all black
(All black!)
