I only feel safe when the safety's, off
That's why I bought the glock with the safety off
12 pull me over for my safety? Nah
Ain't nobody going to save me
My white friends think that I'm crazy
When I tell that America hates me
Church friends think that I'm loosing it
When I tell them white Jesus can't save me
I Talked to caveman he ain't sleeping well
So I'm praying for his safety
I got to tell my brothers I believe in them
Because I got too many in the grave. See
I got to tell my children that their brown skin
Is the most beautiful I've ever seen
And I got AR for any asshole
That try to tell them what they can't be
And I try I try I try I try I try
To believe that tomorrow will be better that today is
But I know I know I know I know I know
That in America there ain't a safe place for my brown skin
As I pick up the pieces of my shattered dreams deferred like student loans
I heard like cattle prongs
You tag along
Don't let me loose you'll get intertwined
Through the subtle caveats of my troubled mind
F*ck your feelings
I'm Not here for your approval
No remorse for the venom I interject
Through your fragile intellect as I connect
Your dissonances directly back to blackness
America the ugly where black skin is captive
For 400 we wanted a freedom that wasn't yours to give
We wanted more than this
We wanted shores and ships to sail away or build and stay
In this country that was built on backs of slaves
But you got all the guns and you got all the bullets
But they tell you you should to be afraid of us?
Thats why I only feel safe when the safety's, off
And my choppers loaded with the safety off
And I try I try I try I try I try
To believe that tomorrow will be better that today is
But I know I know I know I know I know
That in America there ain't a safe place for my brown skin
