lirik lagu black thought – american heartbreak (music from the hbo original tv series)
scribin’
[verse 1: black thought]
yeah, america to ugly
this country is deep to say the least
as from louisville to kentucky, to la to the east
where the rage been on, recently i been makin’ peace
with the fact that black bodies are worth more if they’re deceased
i’m trapped in a nine~by~twelve, awaitin’ our release
not takin’ it upon ourselves to break away [?]
before they face the next few cops
there’s a traffic stop [?] could get you a pop
nina simone said, “what’s the matter with you? rock?
is it my hip~hop? hey, what’s the matter with 2pac?”
we will finish the journey from mecca to pilgrimage
build bridges over burial grounds, they filled with us
i grimaced upon a photo i found
a still image of a friend who said to lean on him, like bill withers
i wish he was still with us
they issue moratoriums on the truth and label us ‘revisionist historians’
changin’ the point of origin in all the events
any prince with some kind of sense is all they’re against
for generations, they ain’t shown us the american [?]
[chorus: ledisi & black thought]
oh, america, [?]
[?]
don’t wanna see another american heartbreak
oh, you can’t keep me down
oh, america
yeah, watch your body for me
i wasn’t built to [?]
i won’t be another american heartbreak
my soul [?]
you can’t keep me down
[verse 2: black thought]
the [?] is strong
to each man, his own
for every [?] in the cold hand o’ jones
get up like jayla rose so they don’t stand alone
leaders understand the [?]
p~wns do what they suppose
in part, this heart of stone
is for you to make it home
if i perish, [?]
i want you to take the throne
but when drivin’, [?]
don’t be talkin’ on the phone
you a alien, you might as well be walkin’ on the moon
when you walk into her room
[?]
your beauty and your brilliance ain’t built to keep it hidden
[?]
[chorus: ledisi]
america, [?]
[?]
don’t wanna see another american heartbreak
oh, you can’t keep me down
oh, america
i wasn’t built to [?]
i won’t be another american heartbreak
my soul [?]
you can’t keep me down
