Lyrics DarkLight (feat. Chill Moody) - MeatSpady

How could I ever be good when I'm portrayed as the enemy
Everything bad for me get presented as kin to me
Everything meant to save me it really be killing me
Just look at how they portrayed Malcolm Martin and Kennedy
I'm picking your energy I feel you feeling finicky
We living in Philly they got us feeling like it's Tennessee
Holy water brown they really giving us Hennessy
Notice we ain't falling no more they see we been asleep
Blind still leading the blind you know I'm fin to peek
Tell me one step at a time but I'm a centipede
Police surround my house made it a centerpiece
Even when I come out in peace they wanna get a piece
Say they saw me reaching for something to leave me in the street
Momma know her son got a heart now it ain't gotta a beat
Black cop knew it was wrong but he ain't say a peep
Justifiable genocide we see it every week

They got me on trial for the color of my skin
No matter what I do it's like I'm never gonna win
I got my hands but they still firing
A four degree and nobody hiring

Nobody hiring with a four year degree
I had my hands up they still fired at me
I was never gonna win it ain't matter what I do
The color of my skin got me on trial too

What we supposed to teach these babies? The life we lead is crazy
Work 120 hours and get paid for 80
School cost you $100,000 just to make you lazy
Congratulate the graduate but don't forget to pay me
And don't forget your interest
You spent 4 years studying what don't peak your interest
Part-time Amazon till you find what's missing
Meantime you confide in the person you kissing
Oh you see where this heading? Yup
A baby on the way they say it's due any day
Working these odd jobs you barely be getting paid
Stay with the baby mother, mother can't afford a place
Whenever it's an argument she throw it in your face
You tell yourself she right because your pride is in the way
Venting to your cousin as you blow one to the face
Instead of giving money he front you a quarter key
But before you get to bag it you get bagged by police

They got me on trial for the color of my skin
No matter what I do it's like I'm never gonna win
I got my hands but they still firing
A four degree and nobody hiring

Nobody hiring with a four year degree
I had my hands up they still fired at me
I was never gonna win it ain't matter what I do
The color of my skin got me on trial too

Let's take a look at where we at now product of predecessors
Learn lessons to never back down flooded with the phony
Come hone in on how the facts sound
The truth ain't debatable
You with work or worry them actions ain't interchangeable
Its all the same to you, Ima go for mines I got us
Before they Amistad us I'll hustle like a Tajada
Peep the knowledge in the words trust its power in them books too
School on stolen land we was taught from a crooks view
How I see it the shades never secondary
Getting to this green trust the blueprint is necessary
Rise they'll pull down mindset in the worst way
Them crabs ain't belong in a barrel in the first place
They word play could match on my worst day its not a thought
Drop gems like its not a sport
Day late and dollar short I know the story tenfold
Give them blood and bones still will judge you by your skin tone

They got me on trial
No matter what I do
I got my hands up
A four degree
Nobody hiring
I had my hands up
I was never gonna win
The color of my skin got me on trial too

There is nooo
There is nooo
There is no ooh ohh
There is nooo
There is nooo
There is no ooh ohh
Light in darkness

There is no
There is no
There is no light in darkness
There is no
There is no
There is no light in darkness
