Do Better

(album: Not What You're Expecting - 2021)

Like we don't got it bad enough, you think we just gon' take your shit (Your shit)
And I just think it makes no sense (No sense)
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do
We already don't have that much, so how you think the kids gon' eat? (Kids gon' eat)
And why you think we hate police? (Hate police)
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do better (Better)
Won't harm you, so don't harm me (We could do better)
Can we live in harmony? (We could do better)
Why aren't we promoting peace? (We could do better)
Instead we picking up the piece

Tell me when the world become so fucked up (Fucked up)
Honestly a question that I gotta ask society
Something I can't ignore being upfront (Upfront)
People are not motivated by nothing besides greed
That's the type of people I stay far from (Far from)
Tryna just stay focused on, working on sobriety
Ain't about to notice how you [?] ([?])
Tryna stack your paper, don't be flashy, do it quietly
From the Brooklyn jungle, glad I made it out alive
Stayed on the path of truth raised in a country made of lies
Tryna teach the youth the news I only prioritize
They want us all to think how is this not a genocide
Fear our power in numbers, want to shrink us down in size
A cop killing a black man, seen it one too many times
Being opressed by the man, better accept our demands
I ain't looking for a friend, but I'm looking for an end

Like we don't got it bad enough, you think we just gon' take your shit (Your shit)
And I just think it makes no sense (No sense)
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do
We already don't have that much, so how you think the kids gon' eat? (Kids gon' eat)
And why you think we hate police? (Hate police)
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do better (Better)
Won't harm you, so don't harm me (We could do better)
Can we live in harmony? (We could do better)
Why aren't we promoting peace? (We could do better)
Instead we picking up the piece
We could do better
I know we could do better
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do better
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do better
I know we could do better
We could do better
I know we could do better
I know we could do better
