lyrics

[Intro: Clarence The Kid & George Floyd / Police Officer]
(Stay on your feet and face the car door!)
(Please!!)
If I see one more story like this man…
It’s the same shit… Y’all not tired of this?
Fuck
(Dang man, I’m not that kind of guy)

[Hook: Clarence The Kid]
Look, I done seen a lot of people die
Every single fucking time I’m on my timeline
It’s upsetting
I got two choices, do I sit and hide
Or give piggies a piece of my mind
Because they don’t get me
Five-0 hate my life
Only see me as an evil being capable of crime
So they try to kill me
Will I put it all on the line or stay silent?
Only one choice makes sense to me really

[Verse 1: Clarence The Kid]
(I can’t breathe, Mr. Officer! Please!! Please! Ahh!)
Look, George said he couldn’t breathe
Eric said he couldn't breathe
Freddie said it too
Now we mobbin’ in the streets
Couple hundred thousand feet
In each city, march for justice
Like we oughta do
Ahmaud got shot, Terence got shot
Alton got shot, man, Breonna and Philando too
Why they wanna be so trigger happy
This ain’t have to happen
But that's how you motherfuckers chose to move
This the kind of country that we living in
Just existing could raise some suspicion then
You could just be beat into oblivion
With excuses of being combative or resisting them
Or threatening when in reality they just want to see you die
They aint never gon’ kill our spirit, I'd like to see them try
Who am I? I’m a proud black man, and I stand with my troops
And you ain't never gonna put us on mute
Cuz it’s a war we’re fighting

[Hook: Clarence The Kid]
I done seen a lot of people die
Every single fucking time I’m on my timeline
It’s upsetting
I got two choices, do I sit and hide
Or give the piggies a piece of my mind
Because they don’t get me
Five-0 hate my life
Only see me as an evil being capable of crime
So they try to kill me
(I wouldn’t do nothing to hurt y’all, Mr. Officer)
Will I put it all on the line or stay silent?
Only one choice makes sense to me really

[Outro: Protester & George Floyd]
All four cops need to be charged
(Why y’all doing me like that, Mr. Officer?)
And also third degree murder?
Excuse me but what is that?
(Look man, I’m claustrophobic for real, Mr. Officer)

Clarence The Kid Los Angeles, California

I believe everyone can be a kid.Everyone has an inner child locked up inside of them, buried behind an ever-growing pile of responsibilities and commitments that try to silence that part of your existence. My aim is to bring that child out. I think everyone is still a kid at heart. ... more
