"Enough of the Bullshit, Respect This!"

lyrics

Chorus
The hunted
Cops on the block ready to rip shit!
The hunted
Gripped up ready to split your shit quick!
The hunted
Spin back dumping until we all hit!
The hunted
Bust back black they on they dumb shit!
The hunted
Fuck all those who don't respect shit!
The hunted
Enough of the bullshit respect this!
The hunted
You taking our lives you mad reckless!
The hunted
We saving our lives with no question!

1st Verse
I had to 
Break from the block cops concocting to put red dots to the dome
Fire to flesh to bone
They good at how they give it when the heat gets drawn from the holster
Cause Jake kind of jumpy with the toaster
They kill cause they know the law protects and leans in they favor
Methodical in maniac behavior
But now they on the news and they posturing positions with the quickness
Concerned with only quieting a witness
Reality is that they rather harsh in they treatment to each and to every section of the hood its no secret
They terrorizing blocks made of teams full of certified vultures 
They violent and never admit to wilding when
Waving and bucking iron at the X generation 
The X factor is the youth that don't matter based on African persuasion
With no hope while they got us in a yoke trying to zip lock our physicals
With zero regard they strong arm breaking the law and we the criminals?

Chorus

2nd Verse
Fuck the phrase "Black Lives Matter"
Cause I could give a fuck how another color value my worth on this earth
Since birth I've been a born rebel
Settling for nothing
Now I'm suppose to beg for my life
I'd rather fight
Despite the odds of success
To calm the distress of a people
Original man of all lands
Y'all being submissive
I'd rather give a swift kick in the ass
to all those that choose to be ignorant
Could give a damn if they label me a militant
This country was established off the murdering of innocent
Indigenous
By terrorists
Brutalizing warfare
And had the nerve to label it a pilgrimage!
Respect is never given to the passive
But never been a problem when in parallel with ass whippings
Expecting different results saying the same thing
The definition of Insanity
Of the Black family

Chorus

3rd Verse
Black
The word alone breeds a level of fear
Right to the heart of the part that remains partisan
Negative connotations coupled with the demonization of black people unwarranted 
We not for it
Define your meaning of "threat"
When the percentage of death among your people's extant right at your own hands
The real reason we "threats" to other people cause united we're powerful 
Towers of insurmountable
Strength
Only a matter of time we find clarity
Focused on the oppression invested 
without discretion
The real weapon is propaganda to slander the image of all blacks devoid of the raw facts
For justifying the slaughter in the eyes of the bigots
Line us up 
And tie us to a crime if we did it or not
So when that gun go "Pop!"
It's indisputable the verdict we deserve what we got! They not guilty!

Chorus
