Say Our Names

I see cocaine skin

Like a pleasure, but sin

Illusions of purity

That’s the crack of your being

I give cold stares back to the white gaze that looks at me rude

You pillage the village

Pillage the village

Pillage the village

You pillage the vilage

Red soil is the tint of my blood

Black Earth is the bed of my flesh

For all eternal you walk on my skin

Think of my ancestors

In haunting horrors to creep on you for your fucking disdain

My expression in negro spiritual

Is your discomfort in white privilege

I see cocaine skin

Like a pleasure but, sin


What you know about

Moonwalking with the bright sun out

Prayin I don’t get caught hidin inside thick grass

‘cause last night finessed

I was finessed

Yeah I was finessed, ayy

21 years old so they’d charge me adult

21 years old, 3 hours I spent

In no man’s land

Prayin and cryin

‘cause on both ends

Not welcome and I’m not home


What you know about

Matters of my heart dealings

What you know about

Matters of my eyes bleeding

The tearing, stories teething, the feeling is ugh

What you know about it

If you don’t know my name

You'nt know about it

If you’on know my name

So, say my name

Say my name

Say my name

Say my name

SAY MY NAME


What you know about the people

People jumping border

What you know about the haters

Call it law and order

Fucking xenophobes

Hating on your own bruddah

Oh gosh

What you know about it

If you'nt say they names

You ain't know about it

If you'nt say they names

So, say they names

Say they names

Say they names

Say they names

Say their names!
