Mama / I hope you know you raised some warriors / and what's running through their veins is battle tested and glorious / in this cold world what worries us / is justice and its distribution / the scales are imbalanced / teetering on the verge of unrest / it's hard to walk nowadays with this target on my person / it's affecting me drastically / gets in the way when I'm working / people tell me I'm trippin / they can't see it / their eyes lie / but the camera lens tells the truth / I'm living proof / riding with lion's mane draped around my neck / despicable me / cause all lives matter / except when I'm letter T in the street /
Mama make sure you keep some flattering pictures of me / I'd hate to be misrepresented by my last image / Americas eyes tinted / as she watches 20 / 20. They did a story on the law when it's applied wrong , hindsight / can't hide ya skin tone / fair game in plain sight / don't understand / how some don't understand / but they would be concerned if they saw us as just a man / but I know what's real / and I refuse to concede / and if I'm ever struck down it'd be my words that I bleed / too many unwilling martyrs / fatherless sons and daughters , black widows , black suits and tinted windows, too many opinions , too little done , too much at stake , too much hate , too much coincidence , too much ignorance, too much insolence , too many "accidents "
