lirik lagu memnon the black - keep walkin'
[verse 1: memnon]
i don’t blink, to be honest i’m scared to
they could shoot me and say i moved too fast
on vacation with two weeks of pay too
press release, oh they’re saying
“its so sad, but the police just did what they had to do”
to black families, i’m sorry, it’s too bad
if your son what just white, would have made it through
but he’s not, he’s a n-gg-, now get his neck
if he struggles, they’re putting two in his head
the report probably says that he pulled a gun…
if they miss and they ended up in his back
the report probably says that he tried to run
this is just one example, i’ve got a ton
kajieme powell took a red bull and let ’em come
when they got there he just had a f-cking knife
without question they ended his f-cking life
(hook)
i don’t say sh-t when they stop me
one word, they might pop me
when i walk past
it’s a quick glance
i think “f-ck you” and keep walking
yea it might be some good ones but its the bad ones that keep stalking
so that don’t give me no options
and all my people keep dropping

[verse 2: memnon]
kings of earth but they still treat us like some cattle
man it hurts to be treated like chattel…
they just kill us and act like it doesn’t matter
need a horse and a saddle, it’s time for battle
i ain’t talking ’bout starting no race war
slave rebellions all end in the same way
insurrection must come from the mind more
otherwise its your head at the city gates
an example for all who attempt escape
“it’s ok little boy, yes your dad is dead
but the police are here to protect and serve
say your prayers extra good when you go to bed
and believe when he died, it was justified
law enforcement cannot commit homicide”
i would tell him its all just the biggest lie
and just give him my shoulder so he can cry
(hook)
i don’t say sh-t when they stop me
one word, they might pop me
when i walk past
it’s a quick glance
i think “f-ck you” and keep walking
yea it might be some good ones but its the bad ones that keep stalking
so that don’t give me no options
and all my people keep dropping

and all my people keep dropping… x2
so that don’t give me no options….
it’s the bad ones that keep stalking…
i think “f-ck you” and keep walking…
why they killing us man why they killing us?
if we kill them they treat us like criminals
lock us up in the jail like a murderer
when they should be in jail cuz they murdered first
count your blessings and try to ignore the curse
clench my fist like a white lady clench her purse
dehydrated for knowledge, i’ll quench your thirst
do observe and you’ll see just where evil lurks
x2
