pandora's box - a$ap boli lyrics

[chorus: a$ap boli]
2020, we done opened pandora’s box
even though we’ve been hurtin’, it’s the system bein’ rocked
covid showed the politicians health shouldn’t be bought
and the protests and the movement shed exposure on the cops
but how many people have to die from the virus
’til those that are in charge realize it’s a crisis?
and how many innocents have to lose their lives
before those that are oppressed have their voices amplified?

[verse 1: a$ap boli]
i’ve not experienced racial bias in the firsthand
but i always read about it, made me sick to learn, man
about the prejudice and hatred in the south in the 60’s
i can’t fathom how it’s happenin’ now in 2020
you would think by now people would’ve learned how
to respect everybody, that’s what it was all about
for equality, abolishing the stupid white privilege
creating a society in all people’s image
but these racist people can’t get it through their heads
that the system bene*fits them at everyone’s expense
and the president, he don’t wanna change anything
he’s in business, from the system, he can gain everything
he only cares about the people that are of his same race
and he’ll only help the people who believe the same thing
and he won’t wear a mask, ’cause he’s playing politics
but the people really suffer, they’re the ones gettin’ sick
[chorus: a$ap boli]
2020, we done opened pandora’s box
even though we’ve been hurtin’, it’s the system bein’ rocked
covid showed the politicians health shouldn’t be bought
and the protests and the movement shed exposure on the cops
but how many people have to die from the virus
’til those that are in charge realize it’s a crisis?
and how many innocents have to lose their lives
before those that are oppressed have their voices amplified?

[verse 2: a$ap boli]
we gotta tear it down so we can build our own thing
a society without the things they’ve been control*ling
a society where all people truly are equal
a society where confederates don’t get to have a sequel
they’ve been actin’ like battle droids
they’re fightin’ for a lost cause and they’re just makin’ noise
don’t they know they lost the war a hundred fifty years ago?
i guess not, ’cause we’ve still got people like chauvin
and people like trump, he thinks it’s ok again
to discriminate on others ’cause the color of their skin
well, the people that i know have never thought it was ok
and they wanna see you gone when it comes election day
they ask “boli, why aren’t you out there in the streets?”
“why drop this song, and not practice what you preach?”
well, my friend, there’s always more than meets the eye
’cause if mom got covid with her asthma, she could die
[chorus: a$ap boli]
2020, we done opened pandora’s box
even though we’ve been hurtin’, it’s the system bein’ rocked
covid showed the politicians health shouldn’t be bought
and the protests and the movement shed exposure on the cops
but how many people have to die from the virus
’til those that are in charge realize it’s a crisis?
and how many innocents have to lose their lives
before those that are oppressed have their voices amplified?
