All My Heroes Are Dead

(album: American Sun - 2019)

Got this feeling hanging over me that I can't shake
Got these demons on my back they tryna see me break
Moving hectic feeling stressed
Back up against the wall
I'm feeling pressed
But nonetheless
A product of a broken system
Just kill 'em
Still teaching lessons with that good old Smith and Wesson
Got us acting like an army in these streets
On that dog eat doggy dog shit
Got us acting like beast
Got these vultures circling around my head
Vampire minds wanna bleed me dry
See me dead
It's open season on an open mind
It's hatred and violence
Sold by design

Aim for the head bullet through spine
Leave em headless
Blind leading the blind

All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head
Oh my god
All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head

Big mouth boy come with too much chat
Pull out the strap mek we shot him bloodclart

Got humanity tip toeing on the edge of a knife
It's profit and capital gains versus the price of life
It's black man this and white man that
But it never
You alright bruv
I got your back
Bullets and gunman run the promise land
Gunshot blast
Tell me who's next
Got a murderous mad man hands on the tech
If you gon' speak your mind
Protect your neck
They'll put a glock to your temple
Remember that
They got no love for you
They'll put two in your back
And on my life
Everyone that I looked up to are dead and buried Revolutionaries

Aim for the head bullet through spine
Leave em headless
Blind leading the blind

All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head
Oh my god
All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head

Are we living in the belly of the beast
There is never any justice
Never any peace

All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head
Oh my God
All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head

All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head
Oh my god
All my heroes are dead
Been laid to rest
With a bullet in the head

While we living in the belly of the beast
There is no sanctuary there is never any peace
I'm not crying out for justice
I'm just tryna lay the blueprint
To get through the ruckus

While we living in the belly of the beast Imma stay trying
Stay on my by any means
If needs be they'll take me on my feet
If I die
Just don't cry
Remember me
