Coup D'étalk

Just so you know, we are the product of people you stole
Letting you know, this is like nothing that you’ve seen before

How could you blame me? It’s what you made me
Behind bars ever since we was babies
They tried to tame me, but can’t detain me
I might bend, but you’ll never ever break me
I fight mainly (yeah), just for my safety (that’s right)
This ain’t a game so you’ll never ever play me
Don’t spend a day in my shoes, go on and trade me (I dare you)
This is the kind of shit I go through on my daily

It’s in my eyes, I have seen the very top of the mountain
I’ll die tonight if this is what it takes to believe
My heart won’t stop beating ‘til there’s nothing left
It’s in my eyes, you’ll see them as we’re burning alive
Burning alive

I’d feel better if (if what?)
My future wasn’t written ‘cause the present is a gift
While they treat us like we don’t exist (goddamn)
He act as if his residents are just fuckin’ irrelevant
Let’s address the elephant
You treat me as a felon, what about your fuckin’ delegates?
Let’s address the elephant
You treat me as a felon, what about our fuckin’ president?

It’s in my eyes, I have seen the very top of the mountain
I’ll die tonight if this is what it takes to believe
My heart won’t stop beating ‘til there’s nothing left

Oh, we did it, y’all
We did it together
That’s how we win
We the people fight the power to maintain our power
And when we win, because you know we will
It’s all power to all people
