[Reks - White House lyrics]
They matter here, they matter here
They matter here, they matter here
They matter here
Marcus, Martin, Malcolm X
Biggie, Pac, Big L forever
Trayvon Martin, Emmett Till
When you black they shoot to kill
When you black you live with limit's
Life and death is both a sentence
Innocents still doing time
Punishments should fit the crime
My people dyin'
They matter here they matter here
They can never have one slice of pie
'Cause their hunger never satisfied
You can never have peace on your land
When the title to it is in their hand
Their Bible tell 'em that they can
What it doesn't say, they write it in
Welcome to the White House where
They write out your accomplishments
And write 'bout your repressive
Succeses when I shout
They cover up, they plant the drugs
Assassinate your character, oh, he a thief
He a thug tell me
What was J edgar Hoover or them KKK shooters
Oklahoma looters, Flint water polluted
In a MAGA cap playin' the Trump card
Backtrack
You get your facts from the Fox News junkyard
Genocide, politricks
Tend to die by twenty-six
By forty-five, a senior citizen
Scenes they put us in, yellow taped out
White chalk they die, our alibi is fake
They couldn't make out
Still fit the description, officer, please
Listen my life matters, I wind up
Missin' momma gon' trip, dang
They matter here they matter here
Bury her son, she shouldn't, bury my son
I will not
Hands up, please, don't shoot, killshot
They matter here, they matter here
They matter here
Marcus, Martin, Malcolm X
Biggie, Pac, Big L forever
Trayvon Martin, Emmett Till
When you black they shoot to kill
When you black you live with limit's
Life and death is both a sentence
Innocents still doing time
Punishments should fit the crime
My people dyin'
They matter here they matter here
They can never have one slice of pie
'Cause their hunger never satisfied
You can never have peace on your land
When the title to it is in their hand
Their Bible tell 'em that they can
What it doesn't say, they write it in
Welcome to the White House where
They write out your accomplishments
And write 'bout your repressive
Succeses when I shout
They cover up, they plant the drugs
Assassinate your character, oh, he a thief
He a thug tell me
What was J edgar Hoover or them KKK shooters
Oklahoma looters, Flint water polluted
In a MAGA cap playin' the Trump card
Backtrack
You get your facts from the Fox News junkyard
Genocide, politricks
Tend to die by twenty-six
By forty-five, a senior citizen
Scenes they put us in, yellow taped out
White chalk they die, our alibi is fake

Bury her son, she shouldn't, bury my son

Hands up, please, don't shoot, killshot
