RIOT by XII BOYS GH Lyrics
[Intro]
Several gunshots
Woman crying
Beat tag
[Chorus: 619DON]
I'mma start a riot, I'mma start a riot
This world yeah what's happening?
We used to laugh and we used to sing
Now we shoot each other, we all human
Yeah what's happening
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot (yeah yeah)
[Pre-Chorus: 619DON]
Yeah we black, so what?
We don't do anything but we get shot
[Verse 2: BW Baby]
We get shot, if we criminals or not
Thought that everything was perfect
But it seems that I forgot
There's been centuries of persecution
With no goddamn resolution (yeah)
Cannot trust the constitution (yeah)
We must start a revolution
We cannot live in exclusion
Maybe it escaped your mind but
We are people in confusion
Governments have made it normal to be racist
Without any retribution (I'mma start a riot)
I finna take a video before my execution (I'mma start a riot)
Can't be on the sidelines (yeah)
Please don't shoot at me until
God has said it's my time
You know there's a fine line
Between the oppressed and then (uh)
The people who proceed (I'mma start a)
To battle for their rights and take
The power that they need
To fear nobody when they spotted (uh)
Walking on the streets
And I'm not stopping until
Equal rights we have achieved that's why (I'mma start a)
[Chorus: 619DON]
I'mma start a riot, I'mma start a riot
This world yeah what's happening?
It's just the world repaying a sin, sin
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot (yeah yeah)
[Verse 2: 619DON & Kwabzz]
The cops, the opps (yeah, uhh, uhh, yeah)
Yeah, we are all human can't we live in peace (uhh)
Why can't the whites love the blacks (uhh, yeah)
We don't need to take anybody's life yeah (uhh)
Anybody's life (yeah), anybody's life
Anybody's life, making me so angry
[Chorus: 619DON & Kwabzz]
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot (not young enough to die)
I'mma start a
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a riot
I'mma start a (yeah)
