Camisha1k - fed up

I'm fed up

I said I'm fed up
But I gots to keep my head up
I do this for my city so I could never just let up
I gave it all I got
I'd do anything to make the violence stop
Too many young kings getting popped
Time waits for no man so the world will never stop
The government put us in these ghettos to watch us rot
But here we are smoking on some pot
Watching each other get shot
Slangin rocks
As time passes by
How many mothers have to cry
Before we open our eyes
I'm traumatized
By all these homicides
But still I rise
I'm kinda fed up with this life
But who am I to ever complain
When my homeboy locked in a prison feelin nothing pain
It's a shame how the system remains the same
And blacks can't gain a thing
We looked up to Obama for the change
But they had him shackled in some chains
Something that he cannot explain
But I get it though
No love or hope for the ghetto so
They continue to kick us down
And laugh as we try to make a way
I was born in this county so I deserve to have a say
In how you wanna run this country tomorrow and today
They gon hate that I'm young, gifted, & black
And how I educated myself and that's a fact
The shit they was teaching in grade school was so whack
So I took it upon myself to stay educated and watch my back
I'm fed up with so many things
Tryna buy shit that money just can't bring
Feeling like a caged bird who just wanna sing
Tired of the government lying bout every single thing
They gon tryna assassinate me like they did Martin Luther King
But I got dreams that's bigger than they schemes
So yeah I'm fed up with every single thing
Yo
