Pursuing peace

Yet need to carry a piece

I'm broken into pieces

My world is shattering 

Touch it and I will crumble 

Good cop bad cop

Ain't a game no more

Trigger happy fingers is the reason we say F the pigs

Yet not all have made the offense that some did

Yet the majority suffers

Same as we do when they post videos online making the world think black is violent

black don't crack

But some do snort 

Closed mouths don't get fed on this boulevard 

So say something or forever hold your piece

Got a piece on my waist 

Yet i'm pursuing peace

Jesus this officer is asking for my license yet griping a piece

In a matter of minutes my mommas gonna be left in pieces 

Black boys blues

since adolescence

 

jesus been pouring blessings

 

still praying for victims of 9/11

 

as 911 out here killing

 

I guess i missed the 4-11 cause i never saw

 

my self as a color

 

im screaming  race don't matter

 

a child dies and people pull out there phones

#black lives matter

 

Im more concerned about the ken

and the parents who had to bear witness

​

or are waiting at home wondering when they

 

son gonna be coming home

 

my mom and father got these preminitions

 

and im sad to say i do to

 

the news never knew the child yet still

 

deemed fit to call him a criminal 

 Life or Pigment

Just because you raise your hand

 

With your fist firmly clinched

 

Doesn't make you an activist

 

Wearing a bandana don't make you a thug and or hood

 

And saying F the government doesn't make you a rebel

 

Are you really Woke???

Are you Woke?
