letra de the 14th amendment - metallic malik
[hook]
things still the same
and i, know we’re afraid
but i, see faith in change
so i, try to maintain
and it’s, harder to say
if you, say it in vein
but this life has taught be lessons that i won’t forget again no
[verse 1]
i saw a man yesterday, he was young and afraid
i said what’s up to him he seemed to have nothing to say
i see the massacre don’t let these people laugh at you
cause your name isn’t bob, like you yellow with a spatula
skin dark just like the moon
and all the light has been consumed
and that’s the reason why they feen and try to plot upon your
doom and disrespect it
while their lights reflected and projected
as superior
man don’t let them fool you with that message
finally he came and said to me he don’t know what to do
he was looking for a job but no one seemed to see him through
they said he, wasn’t qualified enough in getting paid
but he knows that didn’t weight anymore than did his shade
feeling so outraged, now the cops have pulled up to the place
fearing for his life, so they pull the trigger to his face
said he made a big mistake
stuck inside his crooked ways
now he as has to fight a case
how much more can this man take (i can’t take this no more)
[pre-chorus]
planet of the apes
trynna look for an escape
every turn he takes
he sees another hated face
is it cause his race
evidently it is
not much that he can do
so he just says it is what it is
i try to comfort him and let him know that it’s all okay
but even deep down i know things have never truly been this way
not much to do but listen when your stuck inside the system
so i tell the man goodbye but before i fly i should say
[hook]

[bridge]
can you hear me, can you hear me, uh
do you hear me, do you hear me, uh
can you hear me, can you hear me
yeah, can you
[interlude]
uh, man ya’ll already know i been waiting for a long time
to put something out like this
ya’ll better put ya’ll hands together
i been waiting to talk about this nation
this very segregated nation
this very segregated complicated nation
let’s get back to the story
[verse 2]
later that day i saw a women looked just like my mom
an older lady but beautiful in every form
the only difference was her skin compelled a lighter tone
i tried to ask what was wrong cause i could tell she was damaged
she started speaking in spanish and really tested my knowledge
thank god that i took those courses in my first few years of college
i asked if she was okay
she said no, i said por que?
she told me she had some bills that she wasn’t able to pay
she tired to work overtime
her request was out of line
they didn’t pay her no money and wouldn’t pay no mind
so she starts falling behind
into an endless abyss
that spirals into adrift
she’s overwhelmed fulled agony so she looks for the k!ll switch
and all the men that she squeal with are not there for her to heal with
no longer can trust a mate
she’s been a victim rape
so much on this women’s plate
how much more can this girl take
[pre-chorus]
man, begging for some sp-ce
trynna look for an escape
every turn she takes
she sees another hated face
but is it cause her shape?
evidently it is
not much that she can do
so she just says it is what it is
i try to comfort her and let her know that it’s all okay
but even deep down i know things have never truly been that way
not much to do but listen when your stuck inside the system
so i tell the girl goodbye but before i fly i should say
[hook]
ain’t nothing change
and i, know your afraid
but i, see faith in change
so i, write all my pain
and it’s, harder to say
if you, say it in vein
but this life has taught be lessons that i won’t forget again no
[hook]

and i, know your afraid
but i, see faith in change
so i, write all my pain
and it’s, harder to say

but this life has taught be lessons that i won’t forget again (no)
