[Chorus]

The only thing we murder is the beats ‘round here

Unless it’s coming from the cops

It’s peace ‘round here

Cease fire for the lost ones

When we reminisce over you

Raise the fists overdue

[Verse 1]

The melting pot, red hot spilled over to the streets

Blood boiled and my stomach in a knot

Some think it’s halloween

Jack sparrow with an axe, bow, and an arrow

Like that kid on Tatooine

Mind playing tricks on the irony of throwing

Bricks to buildings, destroy to build things

Android sheep meeping like bots

Lurking in the trailеr, bad actors in a lot

So everybody got a point

Thank god it’s not a gun in your face, or gеt sprayed

By mace

What is it about race?

Skin color is a rich history you can never erase

[Chorus]

The only thing we murder is the beats ‘round here

Unless it’s coming from the cops

It’s peace ‘round here

Cease fire for the lost ones

When we reminisce over you

Raise the fists overdue

[Verse 2]

It’s more than a deep memory

Genes dominant, confront the cold enemy

Call it role rage by the men in uniform

Cross burning on the lawn of the office, men

Uninformed

They wanna turn back the clock on the progress

6 Million and one ways to protest

The cold testament, to the four horsemen

Prophecy self-fulfilling, wonder why they can’t stand

The kneeling

Can’t breathe, stuffed pocket in a breeze

Lint screen full of torn tea bags and forgotten receipts

All crumpled up after getting soaked in defeat

But we made like dried petals and rose to our feet

Defiant, still in the grill of adversity

Injustice reached a new level of absurdity

We know what a life’s worth, don’t tell us otherwise

We fight on the other side of televised

[Chorus]

The only thing we murder is the beats ‘round here

Unless it’s coming from the cops

It’s peace ‘round here

Cease fire for the lost ones

When we reminisce over you

Raise the fists overdue
