Lamar4ever & Jerry Dodrill - Lynched

I don't really care how you feel about me
Land of the free but it really ain't free
We don't wanna die we just wanna live in peace
All they wanna do is hang a nigga from a tree
Damn this a tragedy
Is this our fate or a fatality
We just wanna live and live happily
They're causally turning us into casualties
We need a plan we need a strategy
I need morphine for all this agony
I need more green for my family
The color of my skin don't even define half of me
It's like twenty five percent
I only fuck with real niggas solid as cement
Murder murder murder it's obvious as this
I need an exorcism I'm embodying this shit
Now let me body it
I just wanna live life to the fullest
Loss so many niggas that died by a bullet
Loss so many niggas that was lost in the streets
And my father always told me never talk to police
This is as bad as it gets
We just want freedom we're not asking for shit
I can steal a little candy and get twenty five to life
You can kill a whole family get a slap on the wrist
See that's the difference
We don't care about your opinion Martin had a dream and I listened
Dreams don't come true without ambition
Black lives matter is the mission
We lose our lives while they just lose their pension
I hear my ancestors in the distance
Having flashbacks to when they lynched them damn
I don't really care how you feel about me
I don't care how you feel about me
Land of the free but it really ain't free
Oh no it really ain't free
We don't wanna die we just wanna live in peace
We don't wanna die we just want peace
All they wanna do is hang a nigga from a tree
Oh no hang me from a tree
We don't wanna be property
Don't wanna live in poverty
I am the prodigy
I just hope I make y'all proud of me
Fuck your philosophy
You are not Socrates
They put us in the dirt like poppy seeds
But we did not grow into poppy trees
Honestly you know it's quality over quantity
Voice like a mockingbird so what's with all this mockery
While grandma was inside cooking collard greens
She told me they will beat you black and blue long as their dollars green
Father please forgive me for I have sinned
Are you available so I can make an amends
I get down on my knees to pray and say amen
That water that you walked on I just hopped in to swim
I'll bathe in that holy water until my soul is cleansed
The humans you created are killing us cause our skin
I'll never break my back for a person that wouldn't bend
Backwards for me but now are we actually free
I don't really care how you feel about me
I don't care how you feel about me
Land of the free but it really ain't free
Oh no it really ain't free
We don't wanna die we just wanna live in peace
We don't wanna die we just want peace
All they wanna do is hang a nigga from a tree
Oh no hang me from a tree
