JustPierre, Frannie El, Jeremiah - They Don't Care lyrics

They should've told you freedom
Came at a price
Hand gestures for ancestors who
Have paid with their life
Emancipated, but ain't gave us our rights
Promised American Pie
But they just still ain't gave us our slice
Yikes, so we resort to schemes
Do whatever for the green horror scenes
We've been masked up before the quarantine
So it seems, we cry for help
But they ain't listening
They trying to see us 6 feet
That's social distancing i'm missing it
The same color blood in you is in me
But most is split on the part that it's red
See ain't we told to love our neighbor
We ain't animals devouring each other, man
It's time we're held accountable
This is bad, bad, man, we need to act fast
Being black is trending
'til your name's a hashtag
The last laugh, goes to he who endures
Justice is the cause, Christ is the cure
Let's go

All I wanna say is that they
Don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that they
Don't really care about us

I'm tired of being the victim of hate
You're ripping me of my pride, oh
For God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill it's prophecy
Set me free

Trapped in a world engulfed by evil
But some choose their ignorance
The Fathers always watching giving
Presence in his immanence
Its hard for beautiful people our
Complexion is a threat
My blackness is a gift and
Your acceptance is a step
We've been held down for too long
Im in the dirt but i got my fist up
You try to rob me with your cuffs but
It's my mind you want stick up
Heavenly father, im prayin for our nation
The pandemic might be global
But we struggle with a statement
"In God we trust" our faith has been shaken
Instead of trusting you we
Choose give into temptation
The seed we planted is starting to grow roots
You reap what you sow and
The evidence is proof
Systematic separation is a racist
Form of truth
And it's ignorant to think that
It's not effecting you
How to fight what can't be
Seen is a biblical transition
We need strength and we need
Wisdom from a Heavenly provision
So Lord give us poise
Worldly shackles ain't gon chain us
They stick a knee on our throats

I'm tired of being the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class
With a bad name i can't believe this is the
Land from which I came
