the water - calvin stone lyrics

my son know black and white because he see it in his crayon box
only races he know bout is these cars
as a kid they tell you shoot for the stars
but when cop gun in you face tryna add to the scars
and pain they caused you what the f*ck you do?
they get nervous and shoot
luke cage, i wish all my brothers was bulletproof
we get the most degrading jobs to collect a coin
or not a job at all they know what they doing
they’d rather have us low in all these categories
we get the word the preacher scrabble or scattergories
i hear these little boys and girls tell the saddest stories
mama on drugs, daddy dead, they’ll never reach the glory
at least that’s what they think it’s perseverance
you rep the fighter and lover
that’s why your hair’s stronger, that’s why your skin’s tougher
in case you didn’t i want you to know
i bought this grease for your skin, i want to see you glow

wade in the water, children

i’m representing for that 12.9 that keep decreasing in this country
you love the black culture but something in you don’t love me
stop tryna rule me, when i’m giving you every inch of me
saying all lives matter, i see that you lacking empathy
k!ll the bias
y’all say this country’s united when it’s contradicting
cause the people inside are fighting
for equality rights votes had our necks on ya ropes
hanging from ya family tree is black blood on your oak
young black and ignorant is that the demographic
my shoes got swooshes and my pants got graphics
tell me how you feel when you shoot a kid in the face
orange plastic on th e barrel to let you know it was fake
wade in the water, children

hope you notice my faith sometimes
i feel inferior for the skin on my face i feel i’m running in place
getting nowhere fast just hoping i last
home sweet home, the gun shots shatter of glass
my cousin he was k!lled by the cops
this was 09, it’s 2020 now they gave him 17 shots
attached a letter to helium balloon hope god gets it
heaven is far wish i could call from long distance
my next son should i’mma name him justice, cause i ain’t never seen
and i never touched it
and when you charge but don’t convict your confirming corruption
so it’s back to the streets and we f*cking up sh*t
fire and brimstone the whole country is stained
how many more do we gotta lose to gain?
this for fallen all year around it look like autumn
dead for being black in america this for all’em
not black vs white, this all vs racism
with unity we can weed out the evil seeds in this system
weed out the evil seeds in this system

wade in the water, children
