J Dugs - Taken from Violence (Bonus Track)

You hear this shit every day man
In the news and in them raps
But you never deep it enough ‘til you got six slugs inside your back
You got robbed of any sympathy installed within you and that’s a fact
Built like a robot ‘til it happens to the fam, you the man, then you react
Picture the scene, let me vividly paint it like just like Picasso
It’s a child’s play, dodge the snakes
Climb the ladders ‘til you king of the castle
What about when your mum gets mad and kicks you out and the hassle
Caused means you ain’t got a job
Desperate now you trying to backstroke
Currents too strong
And you can never take back what you did wrong
So you gotta make a living for yourself as you listen to the streets song
Steal a few apples here and there, nothing big you ain’t in New York
Maybe rob a phone, advanced enough to steal a car, you gotta uncork
The anger, maybe take the strap with you like Velcro and then go
Put your gun up like hello, no angel and no halo
Rob at gun point plus you paid so
Flying high like a kite
Can be caught anywhere whether that be a party or on a hike
Gunned down like you nothing more than a rodent
But the pain is way more potent
For those still breathing, tears pouring, seething
Scars bought that ain’t ever healing
Crazy how one death can capture the whole
Feeling of the evening as you kneeling
Praying for some justice, feeling
When the ones who supplying would rather see you dying
Cause they’re meant to be our role models but kill black people like they trying
To win a sports game, how we meant to behave when the enforcers act so stray
But you woke now to cancel everyone like a subscript to XXL
At least if you fake woke, be consistent, always people that ain’t from that race
Cancel Nas for saying
And ignore Bjork in black face
Take that line outta context now and paint me as a fucking homophobe
You wankers are so stupid I’m sure you were born with an extra chromosome
Paint a fifteen-year-old Addison Rae as a racist like she ain’t impressionable
To conspiracies, don’t get her the second chance or give her the time to grow
Then when she takes a break you hypocrites you make up shitty rumours
That she attempted suicide, then even encourage her to do it
What about David Dobrik he can’t even show off his iron man suit
Without people saying he’s racist cause of something he did in 1992
People be running miles, being sensitive and cancelling who
They have a pre bias too, ignore racism if the guy’s cool
So melt these snowflakes like the melts they been knew
So cancel culture if you’re hearing this, suck my fucking balls
Cunt, fuck, fanny I can say whatever I fucking want
I ain’t being high alert ‘cause you’re bored in a pandemic
Nothing better to do than to ruin people’s lives, yeah I said it
You think exposing someone for a few likes is gonna get you any credit
People don’t look at the name or the AVI
They a hundred per cent forget it
The effect lives on in that person’s brain, you’re a small speck of dust
Forgotten for what you did, and of course I ain’t too fussed
If they come for me, because I’ma come for you
At least I don’t pick when I’m in the right or wrong
Yeah that’s right you heard
And I know words ain’t bullets
It ain’t the end of the fucking world
Earlier I even seen someone say George Floyd deserved to die
Caused he was an armed robber
Now listen here and try
To understand, it’s not the man that died it’s more the principle
The police didn’t know he was an armed robber
They just felt invincible
What about that unarmed man killed while going out for a run
Can’t even jog now without the fear of a white man bringing a gun
Sometimes I swear it’s so embarrassing to have no melanin
Don’t be mad at the rioters like they ain’t pumping with adrenaline
They killed him cause he’s black
And without outrage, the government sat in silence
So RIP Floyd, fly high Landon and anyone else taken from violence
