Lyrics

I don't wanna go back to the trench
 I don't need my mama cryin', stressin' 'bout no rent
 I've been through some times, I'on really wanna vent
 Cop told me I'ma be lyin' on a bench, dead
 Where does it stop for us? I'on know
 Gotta be one day though
 (Steve Kroeger)
 Where does it stop for us?
 It's hard for us, to rise up from the dirty dust
 Ghetto life, nothin' nice, someone gotta pray for us
 Hard white is all a youngen knew growing up
 Police brutality, shit ain't nothin' new to us
 They said I ain't experience shit 'cause I'm in Canada
 Are you dumb? Man, this shit, it wasn't adding up
 Pop rounds, hit the block down, he was not found
 Cops 'round, raid the whole scene and he stood ground
 Beat trial, matter fact, he ain't seen trial
 Leave work, man, he's somewhere on a beach now
 One year, bounce back, he a police now
 They would go crazy if that story was a street child
 Boy, you got a criminal record, you gettin' no job
 That boy, he just killed my nigga, and he still a cop
 Catch a floss, seen it all, police wanna see me fall
 Dumb shit, in jail, searchin' through these niggas' drawers
 Probably on some gay shit, CO's probably gettin' hard
 Hit 'em wit' a straight fist, my niggas go Jihad
 Trump, he a dumb bitch, shoulda got impeached dawg
 System's so rigged, you don't see it? Then you lost
 People screamin', "Black on black crime ain't serious"
 It's blacks amongst blacks, so it's black who we beefin' wit'
 Let me give you lessons 'cause the school's ain't teachin' it
 Racists kill racists, they around it, ain't no racist shit
 Stop there if you think B-L-M is not fair
 All lives matter is not the same, we don't care
 From past years and mad tears, blacks grew wit' mad fears
 So right now we stand down, remind them that we here
 We all humans, we get ruthless
 Once they start to riot and they lootin', want the fusin'
 Shit is so confusin', I don't know now
 I don't wanna put my hands down
 They tell him, "Freeze", then he stop, what? He freeze to death?
 Plant keys in your spot just to make arrest
 They puttin' knees in necks, watch you scream for breath
 It's not a test, don't get a vest, they don't shoot for chest
 They shoot heads, shoot necks, then they try finesse
 They say he fled, turn his back and became a threat
 It's bullshit but the laws already set wit' them
 They make the law, then break the law, that makes no sense
 I don't wanna go back to the trench
 I don't need my mama cryin', stressin' 'bout no rent
 I've been through some times, I'on really wanna vent
 Cop told me I'ma be lyin' on a bench, dead
 Fifteen, all I wanted was a cheque
 I ain't do shit but they still tryna arrest
 They ain't find shit but they beat me in the head
 Then they told me I'll be lyin' on a bench, dead
 When lions don't get it, they run for it then take it
 Treat us like animals, lock us in cages
 From Egypt wit' them slave ships
 Government, they're racist
 People try peaceful protest and then they mace them
 Malcom X, Martin Luther King, they were some great men
 [?] gone, Alwy got shot, he was like grade ten
 George Floyd got his head crushed on the pavement
 Say a prayer for the black man, nigga, amen
 I don't wanna go back to the trench
 I don't need my mama cryin', stressin' 'bout no rent
 I've been through some times, I'on really wanna vent
 Cop told me I'ma be lyin' on a bench, dead
 Fifteen, all I wanted was a cheque
 I ain't do shit but they still tryna arrest
 They ain't find shit but they beat me in the head
 Then they told me I'll be lyin' on a bench, dead
 Ooh, no
 Ooh, no
 Ooh, no, no, no, no, no
