(Intro)

They got us, yea

(Verse 1)

Got us stuck in a system

That we're about to get out of

That's word to my maker

The story was made up

How do you be sleeping

My people need to wake up

You play with your life

Then they give you life

Or they take your life

How you gonna fight

Not with guns and weapons

See that brother you just killed

Can't leave his nose bleeding

He's a soldier you gone need him

(Pre-chorus)

So fuck your façades and reparations

Won't let you design my revelations

You don't understand our reservation

I won't be sleep, I want to see us like

We're kings and queens our proclamation

My sons and daughters procreation

Uncover your eyes, you'll see the vision

Uncover your eyes, it's just a beginning

(Chorus)

Rewrite it

Rewrite

Rewriting the hold damn history

Rewriting the things that were taught to me

You see the whole damn world

It's time for us to rewrite it

Rewriting

We're rewriting the hold damn history

We're rewriting the lies that were told to me

So come on and rewrite it

Rewrite it

Yea rewrite it

(Verse 2)

Put some respect on my case

They should never get out

With there families just laughing

While mama's cry over caskets

It's just that real it's no doubt

We just bouta wild out

(Pre-chorus)

So fuck your façades and reparations

Won't let you design my revelations

You don't understand my preservation

No I won't be sleep, no

Don't tell me how to express my pain

You know it ain't fair, you couldn't handle this hell

You see all this love in the world

Maybe if you look deep inside of your soul

It'll help you see the night

(Chorus)

Rewrite it

Rewrite

Rewriting the hold damn history

Rewriting the things that were taught to me

You see the whole damn world

It's time for us to rewrite it

Rewriting

We're rewriting the hold damn history

We're rewriting the lies that were told to me

So come on and rewrite it

Rewrite it

Yea rewrite it
