[Usher, Nas, Bibi Bourelly - Chains lyrics]
J-j-j-justice for all?
I'mma get mine, you should get yours too
Shooting, shooting, shooting
Man them boys always shoot
(American dream, American man too)
Shooting, shooting, shooting
Watch them boys always shoot
(And IIII been so tired of being insecure
So tired of) i've had enough running
Running, and running and running and running
(Running) running, and running and running
And running and (Running enough)
Just give it up i don't give a fuck
I've had enough y'all give a fuck? No
Light it on fire i've had enough
Running, and running and running and running
Running, and running and running
And running and you act like the change
Tryna put me in chains
Don't act like you saving us
It's still the same
Man don't act like I made it up
You blaming us let's keep it one hundred
You gave the name to us nigga
We still in chains we still in chains
We still in chains we still in chains
We still in chains we still in chains
We still in chains you put the shame on us
Now, now, now shame on us now
Now, now, now shame on us now, now, now
Moment of silence
American school and we in church too
(Don't shoot)
Shooting, shooting, shooting, we the prey
Always shoot (Prey)
I'mma be trill, you should be trill too
You don't even gotta talk we just shoot
And I feel so tired of being insecure
Just give it up don't give a fuck
Light it on fire
Yeah, yo check
I am Sugar Ray Robinson, Booker T washington
W e b du Bois, I'm the modern one
Yelling at Senators, Presidents, Congressmen
We got a problem that
Needs some acknowledgement
I am no prison commodity
Not just a body you throw in a cell
For any reason, just to bother me
Just for your quota
So it's rest in peace to Sean Bell
Sleep in peace Eric Garner (Sandra)
Every street, every corner
Conspiracy, new world order
I spoke to Tamir Rice mom and
She told me "be strong"
It won't be long 'til it's justice
They won't have votes but
Refuse the discussion
On how certain cops they shoot us for nothing
Revolution is coming
You act like the change
(The land of opportunity)
Tryna put me in chains (The land of Unity)
Don't act like you saving us
(Brotherhood, trust) it's still the same
(America) man don't act like I made it up
You blaming us (You know)
Let's keep it one hundred
You gave the name to us nigga
We still in chains
(Hey so what up my nigga?)
We still in chains we still in chains
You see these chains? We still in chains
I can't see we still in chains
The difference from how we used to be
We still in chains we still in chains
You put the shame on us
Now, now, now shame on us now
Now, now, now shame on us now, now, now
You put the shame on us)
We still in chains we still in chains
We still in chains we still in chains
We still in chains we still in chains
We still in chains you put the shame on us
