riot for me lyrics
[chorus: burden]
what if i was on my knees and executed by police?
what if i was bein’ choked and they knew that i couldn’t breathe
i was in the cop car, i was k!lled in the backseat
with hands cuffed and locked behind me, y’all ain’t losin’ any sleep
ain’t n0body ’bout to riot for me and that’s a fact
ain’t no protests with signs for me, ’cause i ain’t black
ain’t no hashtags online for me or fightin’ back
ain’t n0body ’bout to riot for me, bet y’all don’t riot for me

[verse 1: burden]
ain’t it demonic, how the news make a piece of sh-t look iconic?
how ironic, if the ratings go up, so does the profits
you can change the station, but they’re readin’ from the same script
white man, gunned down by the police, ain’t n0body play that clip
no one gave a sh-t, i won’t get no famous case
i won’t get no downtown monument where they paint my face
i won’t get no nfl jersey spot that say my name
oh, that’s right, since i’m white, the situation ain’t the same
black lives matter, asian lives matter
ain’t allowed to say caucasian lives matter, why?
that don’t fit the narrative, that would mean equality
truth in the mainstream media, that’s mythology
they’re usin’ my people, your people, good people, poor people
either we wake up or they gon’ keep on usin’ more people
i tried to warn people, supplyin’ the truth
if the victim was me, y’all wouldn’t riot and loot
[chorus: burden]
what if i was on my knees and executed by police?
what if i was bein’ choked and they knew that i couldn’t breathe
i was in the cop car, i was k!lled in the backseat
with hands cuffed and locked behind me, y’all ain’t losin’ any sleep
ain’t n0body ’bout to riot for me and that’s a fact
ain’t no protests with signs for me, ’cause i ain’t black
ain’t no hashtags online for me or fightin’ back
ain’t n0body ’bout to riot for me, bet y’all don’t riot for me

[verse 2: mesus]
this is so exhaustin’, way the new talkin’
it’s like black folks only ones dead in coffins
black on black ain’t a tragedy, huh
guess these news cameras ran out of batteries, huh
live by the gun, die by the gun
when it happens in the hood, y’all ain’t sayin’ no’n
but soon as that trigger finger white
y’all be tearin’ sh-t up on the same night, say i ain’t right
say i ain’t white, let’s say that i’m black
get pulled over, try to run away and scr-p
reachin’ for the strap but he get it first
so i slug him in the face at the same time that it burst
now i’m just another reason to riot a name on a shirt
when the truth is out, just got what i deserved
when you playin’ dumb games then you winnin’ a dumb prises
‘less it’s whites k!llin’ blacks, they don’t give a f-ck who dies
[bridge: mesus]
when you gon’ realize they just tryin’ to divide us?
red, white, and blue is the colors that unite us
gettin’ sick and tired of the lootin’ and the riots
when the truth is, if i was dead then y’all’d be dead silent

[chorus: burden]
what if i was on my knees and executed by police?
what if i was bein’ choked and they knew that i couldn’t breathe
i was in the cop car, i was k!lled in the backseat
with hands cuffed and locked behind me, y’all ain’t losin’ any sleep
ain’t n0body ’bout to riot for me and that’s a fact
ain’t no protests with signs for me, ’cause i ain’t black
ain’t no hashtags online for me or fightin’ back
ain’t n0body ’bout to riot for me, bet y’all don’t riot for me
ride for me, ride for me, ride for me, ride for me
