The Dead Rappers Society - PSA (feat. MrLuey)
Turned on the news and guess what I was greeted to
Another brother dying
It's becoming so fucking horrifying the way these young brothers are dying
It's been 80 years since these people first started fighting
Still getting slain by that hand supposed to be righteous
Stabbed with the sword that is grasped by the pious
And it's always dark right before it turns brightest
And DRS is down with you and always ready to fight this
We're not the type to incite violence but nothing else has worked
So I'm like
Fuck it why not try it
So we lace up our boots cuz we've been through the mud
For my country I've already given some blood
For her People why would it be any different
My grandfather should of handled this shit but he didn't
My niece won't have to deal with it and that why we're here to finish it
So if you got a problem you can take a walk
Or keep running your mouth and be outlined in chalk
My name's Pale Horse and I wanna thank y'all for coming to my TED Talk
I've been screaming fist up in the air for so long
I got so many people standing beside me
So many more that's coming along
And I don't care what you preach
All Lives don't matter to me
Don't bring the drama
The place I'm trying to reach is peace
But you trying to release the beast
Locking me in a cage
The protest in my voice I'm just feeling my rage
It's just another chapter
A page in my book
There ain't no fucking pictures you could never take a look
Inside my state of mind
The way I feel inside
That's why when I grab this microphone you know that I'll ride
For generation to have to see what I had to see
No I'm doing my best to give you the best and be the best in me
So I'm standing right beside you
For you rights cuz I'll riot dude
Do you wanna see the violence
No I don't really think you want to
We ain't trying to bring it
But we ain't trying to see it
It's a media manipulation yeah there feeding you what your believing in
Its the manifestation of evil that people cant see through
The blue wall of silence is violence making it lethal
It's making it legal
for them to kill us in these streets
Get off on this shit and go home and lay up in the sheets
And the Qualified Immunity Law
That's bull shit
It lets them violate your rights and get away with bull shit
They can pull you over snatch your ass up out the car
But you up side you head and leave you face with a fucking scar
And then there's the Fleeing Felon Law
Which gives the cops the right to use deadly force
That's why these cops still on the force
It's crazy how we make you mother fuckers scared
With the color of our skin and the texture of our hair
Those three things alone let the cops get away with murder
They partners see the whole thing but will never say a word bro
It's up to use to try and get these laws abolished
Otherwise it ain't gonna do nothing but cause us more problems
