(interlude):

it’s breaking news now
this coming to us from philadelphia
where police say there has been a shooting there

(chorus):

man i been praying all day
and hope i make it through the night
hope the bullets never hit you
and ya moms alright
man i heard shots firing and cop sirens
nothing never hit ya
the cops never get ya
praying all night i don’t wanna worry ya
i hope ya moms not crying
and ya dad never bury ya
just tryna survive in black america
in black america

(verse 1):

i woke up yawning on a sat-rday morning
and my cable box won’t reset
i’m tryna watch recess
i made a bowl of cereal to watch my cartoons
and lock myself in my room
i ain’t dealing with no rules
cuz its raining outside
and i’m just a kid ready to start playin outside
grab my gameboy
man i’m ready to stay outside
but when i got outside a boy was laying outside
his brains hangin outside
my eyes wide
it was the first time i seen it
and i couldn’t sleep that night
man i was dreamin bout them demons
cuz i know that he seen em
but tell me what to do
when you saw the shots h-t him but he never saw you
and later that week
when i seen em on the streets
he said w-ssup lil n-gg-
he was talking to me
i said that im fine and i looked em in his eyes
in the back of my mind
the whole time i was lying like

(chorus):

man i been praying all day
and hope i make it through the night
hope the bullets never hit you
and ya moms alright
man i heard shots firing and cop sirens
nothing never hit ya
the cops never get ya
praying all night i don’t wanna worry ya
i hope ya moms not crying
ya dad never bury ya
just tryna survive in black america
in black america

(interlude):

this has just come in, its not in the local newspaper there yet
its not on the wire services
the tv cameras are not up in the air yet
but we have got confirmed here on the news deck
that a number of people have been shot

(verse 2):

yea i hit em
man i think i hit em
it was raining outside he ain’t have n-body with em
and i think i got away
get rid of this gat
when i was running out the back
i seen that lil n-gg- max
then i hit the indo and i let like 10 go
youngin walked outside playin his nintendo
and i don’t think he saw but what if he did
i know he can’t tell cuz i know where he live
when i seen em yesterday he looked a lil scared
when the cops asked em questions they was walking to his crib
but i know his brother so i know he ain’t snitching
but 10 year old could get me 10 years in prison
im smoking all night drinking all day
hopefully youngin don’t send me upstate
from what he say and this just a pump fake
i hope he know better kid
man i gotta settle this

(chorus): (2x)

man i been praying all day
and hope i make it through the night
hope the bullets never hit you
and ya moms alright
man i heard shots firing and cop sirens
nothing never hit ya
the cops never get ya
praying all night i dont wanna worry ya
i hope ya moms not crying
and ya dad never bury ya
just tryna survive in black america
in black america

(interlude):

it’s our understanding that this, either only happened in the last few minutes, or the word only got out in the last few minutes. we don’t have any idea who the shooter was or if that shooter is in custody, we can often tell by the sorta way the police and other security personnel are conducting themselves if there is an active search for a shooter. frankly, from the looks of things here, if i had to guess, i would probably say there is probably not an active search for a shooter now as authorities seem to be milling around quite casually
