Lyrics THEY DON'T WANT US - Jelani Imani

Supa dupa fly got bucks on my mind
To all brothers say keep ya head high
Turn to a pig say shut the fuck up
They don't want us in america
Can't stand the rain she got her hair done
Edges big laid her ass look like lunch
If you don't give a fuck then put ya hands up
Love what we do but never loved us

I am not a victim
Just a product of the prejudice embedded in the system
I'm indebted to resistance
Been ahead
Although you stripped us of the knowledge and the wisdom
Physical and mental prisons have been privatized
My private eye has masterminded
A vision of a stronger kind of nigga
Not a nigga
But a black man strong like his sister
Know she carrying weight she got composure
But you know she'll let it blow in ya face
Lil shawty colder than space
You know we colder than space

Supa dupa fly got bucks on my mind
To all brothers say keep ya head high
Turn to a pig say shut the fuck up
They don't want us in america
Can't stand the rain she got her hair done
Edges big laid her ass look like lunch
If you don't give a fuck then put ya hands up
Love what we do but never loved us

Me and my niggas just walking along
Airhead wrappers getting left in ya lawn
Just a lil stroll tryna shoot with the breeze
Never would expect the police on the scene
Profiling bitch i'm only 13
Guns drawn like a Wild West movie
Gun-smoke (pow!)
Tell me what you see
Another dead brother look just like me

Supa dupa fly got bucks on my mind
To all brothers say keep ya head high
Turn to a pig say shut the fuck up
They don't want us in america
Can't stand the rain she got her hair done
Edges big laid her ass look like lunch
If you don't give a fuck then put ya hands up
Love what we do but never loved us

Run, I'm running
Run, I'm running
Run, I'm running
Run, I'm running
Run, I'm running (Don't want us in America)
Run, I'm running
Run, I'm running (They Don't want us in America)
Run, I'm running
Run, I'm running Don't look back
Run, I'm running Don't look back
Run, I'm running Don't look back
Run, I'm running Don't look back
Run, I'm running Don't look back
(They Don't want us in America)
