Promised Land (from "Voices For Change" compilation)

(Hahaha, you know that's a priority)

We ain't tryna lose our life to no crooked cop
He was a bitch in high school, how you let him call the shot?
'Posed to be here to protect, we're treated like we opp
So don't expect a nigga to freeze, when you tell a nigga to stop
I'm important in my hood, just like Martin Luther King
Couple niggas hating on me, two tryna kill me 'cause of my dreams
Got the type of money create jealousy, so I still gotta watch the team
Clutching on fucking felony, I'ma leave 'em on the scene

I, I cannot trust nobody now
I don't give a fuck if you the police
At this point I might gun you down
At this point it ain't no peace
Fuck it gon' bring your hammers out
Black lives don't fucking matter, they killing niggas on cameras now
How the fuck I'm from the projects and you still tryna tear me down?
I'm protected by my gun, I never needed y'all around me
Everytime they try to talk to me, I never made a sound
Time come with thugging, ain't tryna look for no easy way out
Time come with thugging, just one of them rules you gotta know
When you out here hustling, my bank account doing the most
But I came from nothing, I remember I ain't have a dime
Now I spend that shit up in Dior like every fucking time

We ain't tryna lose our life to no crooked cop
He was a bitch in high school, how you let him call the shot?
'Posed to be here to protect, we're treated like we opp
So don't expect a nigga to freeze, when you tell a nigga to stop
I'm important in my hood, just like Martin Luther King
Couple niggas hating on me, two tryna kill me 'cause of my dreams
Got the type of money create jealousy, so I still gotta watch the team
Clutching on fucking felony, I'ma leave 'em on the scene
