letra de no more - onlyforjoy

i’m tired of walking down the street
being stopped and frisked
or someone calling the cops
just because the color of my skin

what i’m tired of is
police brutality
period

i stand for my black men
the way they stand for me
what we need is to be free

i’m out here in the streets
running from cops, pain, struggles
so much barely on my feet
i been out here on my own
they k!lled my bro
mama stay on work
and my daddy was gone
i done d-mn near lost my soul
raising h-ll
loyal to the gang
shorty blowing up my phone
but it’s time i be a man
make a plan
gotta feed my fam
do the best that i can
ya’ll ain’t gon’ hold me back
say ya’ll ain’t gon’ hold me back
no more

one night mama had a vision
of me up in the prison
that’s when i started stressing
start counting all my blessings
cause living in them trenches
you had to put in work
or they come teach you a lesson

and no matter how hard we tried
to get by
bullets end up flying til’
one of us died
we seen more blood and slaughter
than love and holy water
than fathers teaching daughters
than black men being honored
how the h-ll
am i suppose to pray and feel inspired
when the hope that we been given
are nothing but lies
and the food that we been eating
were just multiplied
feel the only pure thing
is the tears that we cry
so i’m
i’m out here in the streets
running from cops, pain, struggles
so much barely on my feet
i been out here on my own
they k!lled my bro
mama stay on work
and my daddy was gone
i done d-mn near lost my soul
raising h-ll
loyal to the gang
shorty blowing up my phone
but it’s time i be a man
make a plan
gotta feed my fam
do the best that i can

ya’ll ain’t gon’ hold me back
say ya’ll ain’t gon’ hold me back
no more

looking for the old me
yeah that’s out the door
looking for them shackles
well that’s on the floor
made a choice to be free
and that’s on my own
i ain’t waiting for n0body
to dictate my world
hate my color all you want
just know i’m on go
i’mma stand right here
on all of my toes
i ain’t wasting no more time
on all of my foes
misery loves company
we know how it goes
they love it when we riot
don’t see the real fire
the people we inspire
we take each other higher
to get what we desire
like kanye through wire
let’s sing it like a choir

ya’ll ain’t gon’ hold me back
say ya’ll ain’t gon’ hold me back
no more

i made a pledge to myself
i won’t let no one else control my life
or hold me back no more

no one else will ever
i won’t do it to myself
no never

won’t hold me back no more
if there’s a problem
then there’s the door

no more
no more
ain’t no more hurt
ain’t no more pain
let it wash away
with the rain
with the rain
