Lyrics

Yeah, Blessed B33ZY I'm bout to lay my heart on this 1, y'all gon have to feel me Rest in peace to all my fallen brothers out there No matter how you fell bruh We gon make sure you stay lifted, yeah Look here Man tell me this, why all of our black Kings got to die young And watch our black Queens suffer over lost of their sons It's like as a black Male we don't fit in anywhere From the way we look to the knots in our hair Man that's the reason that we think so highly of ourselves So no matter what you say we got to know that we are heirs To the throne, because we can't make it alone We need God on our sides and enough money to loan To be appreciated man you got to have bread right Cuz for the right price it don't matter what your hair like We got to have our chains shining from around our necks But not remember that the chains that held us together in lack We got to have our grill shining, and all sorts of diamonds Just so we can blind ourselves from the truth that's inside us We feel like man it's nothing we can do To fit into a society that's just taught to shoot Before they even make a clear judgment of what you're going through Watching my brother's die everyday, so I keep that 40 too Not the right direction but I got it for protection Cuz in this world your life can be taken at any second We also got to learn to take care of ourselves All this fried food, trees, and drink don't leave us feeling so well We need health and wealth, can't have 1 without the other And as a culture we got to learn to uplift our brothers No matter our differences or even where we stay at Look at us, we got the same thing in common, we black And that's all everybody else see when they look our way So we got to stand together, cast at the end of a play And bow to each other just to show our respects Because we're Kings and if we don't tell each other, we won't know that I said were Kings, and if we don't tell each other, we won't know that, yeah See why we always gotta die young Do it even matter where I'm from Trying to be a role model to my sons And make it home safe like a home run See why we always gotta die young Do it even matter where I'm from We gon bring our bread together like some crumbs I promise we gon make it out the slums Aye man, we doing this for George and everybody else that died And everybody that they killed and called it a suicide You can run as much as you want but from them demons you can't hide My life should be my own choice, who left that for you to decide He laid in agony, the world had to watch and we cried Cause all I saw was me and all my brothers by my side They say you only live once well I'm trying to live devine Ain't trying to have my life cut short like vacation time Even when we try to protest we still get fought Look at the pain in our eyes, can't you see that we're distraught Since way back in the day our lives could be bought And the lies kept us in line because that's what y'all taught Like a free throw man, all we want is a fair shot This just a glimpse into how I feel, take a look into a black man's thoughts I said this just a glimpse into how I feel, take a look into a black man's thoughts See why we always gotta die young Do it even matter where I'm from Trying to be a role model to my sons And make it home safe like a home run See why we always gotta die young Do it even matter where I'm from We gon bring our bread together like some crumbs I promise we gon make it out the slums You know how they say 30 is the new 20 If that's the case, we still ain't living til 25 Rest in peace George Floyd And all my fallen brothers out there
