[Raheem DeVaughn, Styles P - Trigga Man lyrics]
I think all of us have to do
Some soul-searching to find out how does
Something like this happen and that means
That we examine the laws and
Context for what happened
As well the specifics of the
Incident but my main
Message is to the parents of Trayvon
Martin if I had a son
He'd look like Trayvon
Trigga man, man
Dear assassinator, dear murderer
Did you ever stop to think
That I coulda been a teacher
A preacher or played power forward
That I coulda been a surgeon, a father
A grandpa one day
But, you, YOU’RE A DREAM KILLER
TRIGGA Man Man TRIGGA Man Man
With ya 9 Millimeter, tell me
Beyond the color of my skin
The hoodie on my head
Did you ever stop to think
Or was HATRED on ya mind tRIGGA MAN
I’m supposed to be in the year book
I’m supposed to be king at the prom
Maybe even get a full ride for an education
What a price what price to pay
For a walk to the store
Left for dead like an animal
You’re a COWARD and a CRIMINAL
The world's in a dark place
Because of the hatred towards a dark face
It ain’t a race card thing because
It's not a card race
It’s your place and my place
That will make it our place
This hate run deep before the 1800's
Wear a hoodie and they could kill
You that’s the way they wanted
And a man killed a boy
That’s the way they hunted
And the cops with all the
Laws that’s way they fronted
Homicide is justified because of ya skin tone
If they left us in Africa we woulda been home
Think of that sucka ass TRIGGA man
Before you go and kill a black little man
Insane world that the sane's in
Yhey gon treat you different if you
Ain’t got the same skin
And that element is wack
And the sad shit about it
Is the president is black
Seventeen-year-old Jordan Russell Davis was
Fatally shot and
Killed by a forty-five year old man
By the name of Michael Dunn now
Apparently Michael Dunn was in Jacksonville
Florida for his son's wedding and he pulled
Up next to a sports utility
Vehicle in a red car
And he noticed that the music was too loud
- he couldn't handle the loud music
So he rolled down his window
And he asked the
Guys in the car to turn it down somehow
A verbal altercation ensued
And it gets to a point
Where Michael Dunn gets a
Gun, and he starts shooting at the
Several black men in the car
Okay? Seventeen-year-old Jordan Russell
Davis was shot twice in the back of the
Neck and, as a result, died authorities
Say, Jacksonville police in specific
Say that there was no gun found in the
Vehicle, they were unarmed
So they don't understand why Michael
Dunn shot into the car eight or nine times
Killing an unarmed seventeen year old
So he says, oh, I thought
I saw a shotgun except, he didn't
Some soul-searching to find out how does
Something like this happen and that means
That we examine the laws and
Context for what happened
As well the specifics of the
Incident but my main
Message is to the parents of Trayvon
Martin if I had a son

Dear assassinator, dear murderer
