Cassie Chantel - Ms. America (feat. B3still)

With all my love
Ms. America, when I'm with you I can't breathe
Came to you out on my bended knee
And girl, you´re so hard to please
And I tried to make you love me
I tried to make you love me
But you hate me

I knew you before I knew myself
You taught me how to view myself
You´ve seen a lot of things and been abused yourself
I always thought that I could help
And I got so many questions about her and doctor King
Like how she take him down when she encouraged him to dream
I guess I'll forgive Malcolm
Because I know he was extreme
And white girls ain´t used to that type of thing
I´m so happy you opened your mind up for me,
Even though many won´t agree
You support everything from L to the T
So you say
But you also say you free
But for every inch I get with you it seems I have to plea
I tried to make you proud and go to college and stop the violence and
Build communities, change the look of poverty
I even voted to have a place in democracy
And then you use the news (noose) to make a mock of me
I don´t understand you

I don't understand why you don't love me like,
You love my style, you love the way that I talk
You think that I'm funny
We both like sports
But you don't protect me
When I call out to you, you don't respond
Like what did I do?

With all my love
Ms. America, when I´m with you I can't breathe
Came to you out on my bended knee
And girl, you're so hard to please
And I tried to make you love me
I tried to make you love me
But you hate me

You so toxic but there's still nowhere I'd rather be
Sometimes you treat me well but then mistreat my family
You got a funny way to love
You know it's challenging
When the only way you hear me is when I damage shit
You send apologizes and money trying to bandage it
You even put me in high places, let me manage it
But even with all the things you give I still feel powerless
And if I continue to say nothing then I'm cowardice
Tell me what to say when you the only thing I know
You tell me I should leave but where I'm supposed to go
It gets hard to breathe when you always at my throat
Said it gets hard to breathe when you always at my throat
But you tell me that there's hope left
I´m so tired of the back and forth and all the protest
I´m just looking forward to the next step
I´ll have faith in you until my last breath
America

With all my love
Ms. America, when I'm with you I can't breathe
Came to you out on my bended knee
And girl, you're so hard to please
And I tried to make you love me
I tried to make you love me
But you hate me
With all my love
Ms. America, when I´m with you I can't breathe
Came to you out on my bended knee
And girl, you're so hard to please
And I tried to make you love me
I tried to make you love me
But you hate me
