Bambu:
Listen baby, maybe I've been busy chasing money a long long time
And I ain't making time, I've been way behind
Let me go drop you a few lines
I know you wonder why I get nervous
When you bringing your Nerf gun outside
Because police see a little brown boy with a gun toy, that's on site
Hoodie down, because when you're hoodie up you get followed all the way home
Music down, because when your music up you get shot down
And I know you only 8 years old but still
Devil got no chill
Aiyana Jones was only 7 when the police busted in and got her killed
Pay attention son
Daddy passing on lessons
Just to keep you safe in your skin
Anything can be a weapon
They feel threatened by your sight
So when you old enough and you drive
Keep your wallet, and registration
And your insurance card in plain sight
Don't dig in pockets or, in compartments
Or they fire will on you so fast
Whether a phone, a comb, a candy bar
They see a gun when it's in your hand
They assume you shop lifting in stores
So they gonna follow you for it
Or you probably getting ignored
Because the lady don't think you can afford it
They pull purses by their feet, call police across the street
Just stay cordial, and don't trip it if they flex boy by all means
But just be you, and you'll be fine
You've just got to run harder than the head starter
And then I'm glad you're mine
Bambu and Khalil:
Why would I wanna wanna wanna wanna wanna be like them?
Why would I wanna wanna wanna wanna wanna be like them?
Said why would I wanna wanna wanna wanna wanna be like them?
Why would I wanna wanna wanna wanna wanna be like them?
Bambu:
Yo, listen baby, maybe I've been busy chasing money a long long time
And I ain't making time, I've been way behind
Sum it up in one line, screaming
Fuck a cop (repeated)
For every victim of police
Fuck a cop (repeated)
For every name we saying
Fuck a cop (repeated)
We ain't gonna get tired screaming
Fuck a cop (repeated)
For every victim of a pig we saying
Fuck a cop (repeated)
We ain't getting tired screaming
Fuck a cop (repeated)
For every name they took away it's
Fuck a cop (repeated)
Out in Saint Louis they screaming
Fuck a cop (repeated)
All the way in Oakland it's like
Fuck a cop (repeated)
Right here on the block we screaming
Fuck a cop (repeated)
I never get tired of saying
Fuck a cop (repeated)
Say it with me homie, it's like
Fuck a cop (repeated)
Keep your teeth white saying
Fuck a cop (repeated)
For every victim of a pig it's
Fuck a cop (repeated)
For ever name they took away it's
Fuck a cop
