Lyrics No Chorus - Chrisette Michele

How we gone come outta this?
Why are we allowin' this?
Why are we so proud of this?
I am so not down for this
This is how they wanted us
Eye for eye, unjust, injustice
God forbid I'm different
Oh shit I'm irreverent

God forbid I'm hesitant
To group think, elevate
Every mind, everyone be great
Why the old folks chasin' fate so late?
Pass the baton, relay race, cause you tired, I'm running'

Don't die, take a break
You gunnin', shoot me down, don't teach
Old folks just preach about the man defeatin'
And the convo stops too soon

No
No

Judgement and no real direction.
Just a follow the lecture to a fuck up election
And they tell me it's Russian
It's the art of division
It's the lack of a teacher for the ones craving leaders

Call me "Confusion", for I'm full of dillusion
But I'm lookin' to you and I can be a student
You don't listen to me
How can I listen to you?
And the convo stops too soon

No
No

How the hell you assume that I know what to do?
This is political
What the hell is the news?

They're raising their voices
I'm supposed to fight
The valley is dangerous
They're loosing their minds

I'm loosing mine's too
My fist is up high
We voted for her
And he got assigned
I just want my acres
It's been a long time
They still see a slave in my heritage line

A rally in V.A.
We rally the troops
Another is dead
It won't come to an end
When it comes to a head
I hope the marches are lead
By the convo's we persue

No
No

Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
Ain't nobody tryina sing this shit
