america's fire - kolo lyrics

people are tired, exhausted like an extinguisher
the fire’s rising, it’s hard to keep down the temperature
can’t keep my cool when cops is out here ruthless
before they pull us over they already plan to shoot us
before we’re even born the system set up just put us down
they only love us when we balling or we rapping
and even then the love is fake your lacking in your action
if you see all that’s been happening, and don’t speak out on this madness
where’s your empathy, try to see it through our lens
why you value more the life of animals than you do men
why you don’t see me as equal but still claim me as a friend
why you act like centuries of oppression saw its end
your silence deserves conviction, your ignorance is malignant
any semblance of justice, you fill is just a figment
of your imagination cops pull up like the blazers
weapons drawn no hesitation inciting these situations
he wasn’t even armed resistance was never proven
his record’s non*relevant, your mind is too obtuse
to think that you the judge and jury, out here playing god
you hunting us for sport, rest in peace to ahmad
so we running out of patience, burning down your stations
looting all your property, so can make a statement
this the last resort since our voices being quieted
you’re to blame for america’s fire
america’s fire
burning and looting, gas in the night sky
the blue walls form a trap that’s on all sides
white signs fill the black streets with hope
and my people never fall we gon’ rise like the smoke yeah

let it burn down, let it all burn down (yeah, yeah)
let it burn down, let it all burn down (yeah, yeah)
let it burn down, let it all burn down (yeah, yeah)
all burn down (yeah, yeah)

it’s just the worlds exfoliation
removing all the evil on the surface we been facing
how are you surprised that a war is what we’re waging
when the congress broke its promises to those who built the nation
the war against injustice, the wrath of the incumbent
the lack of understanding of the hole you put us under
the lack of empathy when you see cries from a mother
the lack of action when you see the badge k!ll our brothers
your ways are woven deeply in the fabric of america
stitched by the founders, sewed the privilege you inherited
didn’t pick that cotton that they used to make the cloth
and knew they lied when they wrote liberty for all
the garment needs a wash better yet incineration
and that’s what’s burning in the buildings that’s been blazing
the legacy of hate, the memories of pain
the tulsa massacre, genocides on our race
the things we can’t erase, depicted as mistakes
strategic laws, set up just to keep us second place
the laws we’ll eviscerate we no longer implore
justice will be served, rest in peace george floyd
yeah we running out of patience, burning down your stations
looting all your property, so can make a statement
this the last resort since our voices being quieted
you’re to blame for america’s fire
america’s fire
burning and looting, gas in the night sky
the blue walls form a trap that’s on all sides
white signs fill the black streets with hope
and my people never fall we gon’ rise like the smoke yeah

let it burn down, let it all burn down (yeah, yeah)
let it burn down, let it all burn down (yeah, yeah)
let it burn down, let it all burn down (yeah, yeah)
all burn down (yeah, yeah)
