Triz Nathaniel - Should've Let You Burn (feat. Nordi Blu)

Are you there God? It's me, Triz
My nigga you ain't gon' believe this
But these streets is full of extremists
And I don't know what they beef is
They treat kids like criminals
They're sure scared what the youth'll do
When they beat the shit outta us - typical
Ordinary is just what you're used to
They yap yap about "bad apples"
Actually it's the tree that sucks
I seen enough of y'all demeaning us
So with all due respect, get fucked
Bruh, we in a crisis
Got me thinking back to what Mike said
When the going gets tough, the tough get debt
So don't pay attention, just pay the rent
I'm so naive
Keep telling lies that I believe
I guess I'll never learn
I should've let you burn
This is the last time
But I said that last time
I guess I'll never learn
I should've let you burn
Since the beginning
The mission's been to mold ya
'Cause they petrified of these powerful women
It's Xena-phobia
Bruh AOC my Khaleesi
And you can be mad at my reasons
But it's weak men still running shit
So this Tiffany Amber Treason
This revolution season
And I'm fiendin' to unfuck the world
With this proletariat poetry
I don't know how to speak to the rich girls
But shit girl, we in a crisis
Got me thinking back to what Mike said
When the going gets tough, the tough get debt
So don't pay attention, just pay the rent
I'm so naive
Keep telling lies that I believe
I guess I'll never learn
I should've let you burn
This is the last time
But I said that last time
I guess I'll never learn
I should've let you burn
We made the wrong decision
I see CNN, I see the politicians
So now I'm seeing in Wakandavision
With no fucks given 'bout cis-male feelings
Real shit been in my family
'Cause it's nooses in my family tree
And my elders went through hell so
I refuse to be anyone else but me
It was a penalty see
To be on this soapbox that you see me on
I get it popping off - that's a guarantee
Like old folks sleeping with the TV on
I'm seeing all this crisis
Got me thinking back to what Mike said:
When the going gets tough, the tough get debt
So don't pay attention, just pay the rent
I'm so naive
Keep telling lies that I believe
I guess I'll never learn
I should've let you burn
This is the last time
But I said that last time
I guess I'll never learn
I should've let you burn
