million hoodies music - pele rap's revolutionary lyrics
[intro: pelé rr]
gun violence is the leading cause of death among black teens aged 15 to 19
black males 15 to 19 were eight times as likely as white males of the same age to be k!lled in a gun related homicide
african americans are incarcerated at nearly six times the rate of whites
in 2011, 87% of those stopped and frisked in new york city were black or latino
and 9 out of 10 were innocent
[hook: pelé rr]
this is marching music
that million hoodies music (yeah)
i’m talking malcom x and martin luther
i’m talking malcom x and martin luther
this is marching music
this is marching music
flow and the beat keep it right there
chasing the dream but we’re living a nightmare
give me the beat and i’ll give you the raps
this is pelé at his best
give me the beat and i’ll give you the raps
spitting language at it’s best
[verse 1: pelé rr]
this ain’t your typical conscious rap
a million hoodies now conscious back
(yea i like that, uhh)
this ain’t your typical conscious rap
a million hoodies now conscious back (yea, check it)
yo, i feel i’m the modern day malcom x riding the track
(oscar grant, ramarley graham)
my civil rights are still under attack
(rekia boyd, sean bell)
ain’t satisfied with a crib and a ‘lac
(amadou diallo, dj henry)
brother it’s safer in h-ll if you’re black
sister they’re k!lling us keeping us trapped
(trayvon martin)
don’t tell me you never knew that
but listen relax, consider the facts
the losses of life among blacks
seem to have little impact
in the society that
we find ourselves and it’s sad
all this injustice we’ve had
hoodies up, time to react
rocking it proud like a badge
this ain’t your typical conscious rap
(naa)
(yo, look)
this ain’t your typical conscious rap
a million hoodies now conscious back
(uh, i said)
a million hoodies now conscious back
[hook: pelé rr]
[verse 2: pelé rr]
shout out and pay your respects to trayvon
let me shout out and pay my respects to trayvon
rest in peace
let me give you the run down (uhh)
trayvon was stalked and gunned down
oh it’s going down
that’s why my hoodie don’t come down
that’s why my hoodie don’t come down
i won’t calm down
(naa)
they’re wishing they could figure the boy
can’t filter me out
the flow signals the noise
(uhh)
we’re going digital boy
a million hoodies our arab spring
east coast west coast found my sound in the south
i guess it’s only right i be the sound of the south
(uh)
i’ve been around and about
seen the highs and the lows
when you’re down and you’re out
you catch a glimpse of the global perspective
that’s nelson mandela’s perspective
and everybody knows life is hectic
but why do we treat life so reckless (reckless)
