[Chico Cas]
They feed us fears
[N3]
To make us powerless
[Chico Cas]
Don't shed no tears
[N3]
Coz' we ain't powerless
[Chico Cas]
No guns no laws they
[N3]
Feelin powerless, but to money and greed they truly powerless
[Chico Cas]
Who got the rights, to go and listen to the words I say?
They tapping on my phone at home, hearing conversations I made that day
I gotta say, I gotta ask, the questions that are running deep
Like who got the rights, to judge somebody on the language that the speak?
The way they dress? The way they walk? Their way of thought? The way they live?
And who got the rights to judge, their religion? Their believes?
And who got the rights, to go and label me suspicious?
Raid squad outside my house, they ready to roll, time to get vicious
They want to raid on me? Then bitch I'll make it rain on them
But I'm not talking bout' them dollars, what I mean I'm locking aim on them
Coz if they got the rights to start come busting through my door
Then shit I got the rights to bust on back, and leave a few dead on the floor
So who got the rights, to stand up for what they believe in?
We all do, so stand up, fight now while your still breathing
They wanna raid on us? But we'll make it rain on them
We fighting back and that's a fact, we locking aim on them

Now let me tell you a story about a girl from the east
She had a beautiful life, it was simple and peaceful
One day came the storm and it flooded her streets
Full of solders and swords that were drowning the weak
She ran with her family, up to hide in the hills
The haunts of the screaming, just the thought gives me chills
Hoping they were safe, praying to see morning
Then they bust though the door you see shouting and guns roaring
She screamed out to her brother, before they cut of his face
She jump tried reached out for her mother, in hope to feel her last embrace
Then they grabbed her and dragged n' her threw her in a dark room that consumed her
All she could hear was the song of bullets and screaming n' slaughter
The only thing that was there to comfort her was the moon
But even its embrace was cold as she curled up in her cocoon
I keep crying our words to the world that fall to deaf ears
In hope that one day your heart will catch all the tears
