die a king not a savage - tehondi lyrics

[intro: tehondi]
ya know

[verse 1: tehondi]
my generation setting fires
burning away our history to the point they claiming february’s a liar
cause all we see is black on black violence
guess its dark times. i had a dream. it expired
where the h-ll did my heart go? lost it in chicago
beautiful city with bloodshed all across the sidewalks
had no friends inside the pound
southside living with the hounds
d-mn that child’s a tough puppy all the shots they gave him couldn’t put him down
couldn’t put me down. i rose up
choose to be a king didn’t need a robe
bedroom was the throne
my mind was the crown and an empty canvas to build my kingdom on
use to sing along with the brain washed like covering myself in zombie blood
survived long enough to build a mindset… that can fight a gun
began with words ambitious dreams. use my mind like green lanterns ring
seeking truth in this dark world. tyranny stop hiding things
well fine with me. only truth i needed
was knowing its all lie. now i know you can be defeated
(i’ll find a way!)

[hook: tehondi]
ah. ah
these streets are crying
funerals. our people dying
innocent trying to survive but
k!llers are on the rise
they say they do it cause’ they savage
these gangs don’t care about peace they just wanna live more lavish
another sister in the casket. another brother in the casket
now the little kids sagging they just wanna be- (i told em)
die king not a savage! die a king not a savage!
cause’ a king dies for something your life means nothing as a savage okay!

[verse 2: tehondi]
wouldn’t be so broke if you didn’t care for expensive clothes
buying sh-t just to brag about, could invest it though
guess we could agree on different taste but that ain’t the case
when you spending your life hitting l!cks on people and leaving them up on death’s plate
this ain’t no food for thought stop feeding into these -ssh0l-s
rappers quick to wear a trayvon martin hoodie, but all they rap about is k!lling black folks
yawl a reason we suffering, ain’t no love here they want none of it
i breed peace and k!ll chaos, ohhhh, better sell out here come the government
nah they ain’t gotta blast sh-t, they gone leave me to the savages
laughing like who needs a kkk when we can get blacks to k!ll blacks again
and again. oh here comes the van
inside resides a couple shooters
d-mn tehondi… could have been a martin luther
(still died a king)

[verse 3: tehondi]
unlock your mind. are you in prison?
most people wearing a jesus piece are counterfeit christians
but that’s none of my business!
religion don’t make a difference
cause’ our problems are man-made so man up and get to fixing
become the savior. things won’t be sweet now and later
if we sit around and play the bystander role
read between the lines and question what’s after them
abraham lincoln said “i freed the slaves”
he didn’t say i freed the africans
d-mn, they back again, the savages
taking all these lives they don’t ever care what care what happening
why be a savage you can be king
turn that gang into a freedom ring
unite all our people and seek the peace that has always been in reach
cause’ man
