Black widow young kiddo

Tear stained pillow 'nother black man died

Wade in the water I don't mean baptized

Dark a*s times can't bat no eye

I see 'em our BMs

IBM windows they don't look through ours

We got a fire and it's big like Cali's

But they ain't for us we ain't Forrest

They only for it if we servin' time

Butler boys that's a bigger crime

We gave ours to the rallies funerals black Denalis

Can't let a day go by

Esau she saw Eric die

We saw people cry think about all of our people's wives

Raise the kids in the world they know ain't safe to live

Like Myrlie emergency

The mirror me said I could be her too the day I say I do

Black men bleeding it's your time

Not so funny Valentine

Take don't take my love away

Oh don't you

Take don't take my love away

Made a widow from a wife

Took the love of my whole life

Take don't take my love away

Oh don't you

Take don't take my love away

Yeah

Invisible veil Coretta wore that you could see Israel

Martin Luther wasn't a big enough deal

Trayvon Martin ain't a big enough deal

I kid you not

How many Martin's we had shot

Pouring Remy Martin on the block

In memory documented by the Roc

Yeah I hope you watched let's talk about

What Betty did she saw X die

We saw X die how Betty did

Now when I exit for the baby kid

Cry for the baby Mama and the baby crib

That's a broken home I could be on that

That's reality that's a big ol' fact

'Cause I'ma marry black a hard truth

Think about the widows that could be us too

Myrlie I miss you Miss Myrlie Still holding yourself to sleep all night still drunk off the s**t that keeps you up at night Still feel haunted still exhausted I can love you if you needing love Myrlie Can you love me back

Black men bleeding it's your time

Not so funny Valentine

Take don't take my love away

Oh don't you

Take don't take my love away

Made a widow from a wife

Took the love of my whole life

Take don't take my love away

Oh don't you

Take don't take my love away
