Lu Bennett - Bigger Picture Lyrics

Distracted by the media
Look at the bigger picture
I promise in the long run it's gone be beneficial
Don't get caught up in this world
This ain't the bigger picture
Just make sure you join the squad fo' the man blow the whistle
I swear ery time we look up
Its anotha brotha gone
Count ya blessings, it could be ya last time on the phone
Tell my people, there's more to life than just gettin' richer
So lay off that IG and look at the bigger picture, yeah
Ok, rest in heaven Nipsey
The marathon continues
I'm movin in my purpose as I race through all these venues
It's Woke Folk Ent. and yo city is on the menu
Our plate full, we feastin! Not sorry if we offend you
One day it's all gone hit you that they don't want us unitin'
That get they blood pressure spikin'
That's why I continue writin'
Some folk would say it's dangerous but I think it's excitin'
This movement that we ignitin'
Bet you remember this titan
Uh yeah
Like a light, we gone prevail in the dark
When tragedies tend to happen, they want more this style of art
See positivity penetrates when there's evil afoot
But it gets deeper than that
I highly suggest you look, yo
Distracted by the media
Look at the bigger picture
I promise in the long run it's gone be beneficial
Don't get caught up in this world
This ain't the bigger picture
Just make sure you join the squad fo' the man blow the whistle
I swear ery time we look up
Its anotha brotha gone
Count ya blessings, it could be ya last time on the phone
Tell my people, there's more to life than just gettin' richer
So lay off that IG and look at the bigger picture, yeah
Since when has good and evil been a mixture? I'm puzzled
You speak the truth dawg, then they offer you a muzzle
And call it hush money
I'm no dummy, boy I'm free
And most importantly
I never changed, I'm still me
I'm hangry, not complacent
In spite 'a all that we facin'
Its population control
These bullets that they be wastin'
D-dumpin on all our people
When neighborhood church adjacent
And if you stand for yo rights, some time you probably facin', man
These hate crimes gotta stop
They gettin old
You say two words too many, you might get the stranglehold
Some officers so deceivin'
Just lyin' more every evenin'
And leavin' my people grievin'
Cause somebody son is bleedin'
It's cray
How cops get away wit murder errday
Then they celebrate at the station
Like I got one today
Intentionally profilin', just so they can meet they quota
Betta pray!
If you black wit tint, in a new Toyota boy
Distracted by the media
Look at the bigger picture
I promise in the long run it's gone be beneficial
Don't get caught up in this world
This ain't the bigger picture
Just make sure you join the squad fo' the man blow the whistle
I swear ery time we look up
Its anotha brotha gone
Count ya blessings, it could be ya last time on the phone
Tell my people, there's more to life than just gettin' richer
So lay off that IG and look at the bigger picture, yeah
