I feel like they wanna war with us I feel like they wanna war through the summer
time Honestly, I'm kinda scared of the summer
I don't wanna be a victim of somebody's
life
I feel like they wanna war with us I feel like they wanna war through the summer
time
Honestly, I'm kinda scared of the summer time
I don't wanna be a victim of somebody's life
Hands up, don't shoot, we say it all the time
That's among the first words we teach our little kids
We livin' in a scary time, cause the way it is
We got riots breakin' all around the country now
So many people terrified to even leave the house
A pandemic really got us thinkin' Jim Crow
So many people never said this, live on death row
I got a mind that's meant for change, gotta let it show
Half black, half white, all terrified
Can't believe the * that's goin' on in front of my eyes
Officer, look around, you see the people that are filmin' you
No fear with your soul, because you know they're terrified of you
They're scared of actin' out, cause that's the * that gets them killed
You know you wildin', but you high off the blue pill
You stuck in fantasy, this ain't no simulation
I got goals of who I wanna be, you scared of conversation
I feel like they wanna war with us
I feel like they wanna war through the summertime
Honestly, I'm kinda scared of the summertime
I don't wanna be a victim of somebody's life
I feel like they wanna war with us
I feel like they wanna war through the summertime
Honestly, I'm kinda scared of the summertime
I don't wanna be a victim of somebody's life
Don't shoot, I don't have a weapon on me
I know my color's different, that's not a reason for me
To be face down on the ground screamin' I can't breathe
You got me pimped before tellin' me what's the reason
Bein' black does not mean I'm a thug
You say that we're problematic, you claggin' without a reason
Other than you feelin' threatened, we feel like it's open season
Of course we're tense, we don't know what you were planin' to do
Our traffic stop is terrifying, just imagine bein' in our shoes
Turnin' on the news, and everyday somebody's dyin' by mistake
You apologize, same old regulations, it's the world we're livin' in
Take a second, count your blessings
Imagine every one of them gettin' stripped without a question
God forbid we got a record for some bullshit in our past
It's the first thing in the media
Now you post a mugshot, not a laugh
I feel like they wanna war with us
I feel like they wanna war through the summertime
Honestly, I'm kinda scared of the summertime
I don't wanna be a victim of somebody's life
I feel like they wanna war with us
I feel like they wanna war through the summertime
Honestly, I'm kinda scared of the summertime
I don't wanna be a victim of somebody's life
