Lyrics Alright Now (feat. Volcano Beats) - Sycosis

I want to give a special shout out
To the toughest year of all time
We all deserve a trophy for this one

2020 God damn you gave us plenty
Drama and attitude
But I ain't mad at you
You gave me life that's right
You showed me avenues
You took our loved ones though
Look at the magnitude
You put the world on pause
Like a sabbatical
You showed my people's pain
I show you gratitude
You made them say her name
Look what you had to do
The President don't give a fuck
So we might make the news
The whole world is a stage
We might set it ablaze
May they never forget
That its kids in a cage
Them police want a war
We fist up in they face
We fighting down the block
This looks like Streets of Rage
A lot of babies dying
From stray bullets still
And when the shooter is Black
We don't know how to feel
You took us out the fields
So now we kneel on them
I rep Chicago still
Like dollar bill on em
You made us boss up
We started thinking business
Fuck them designer stores
Like a Jehova's Witness
We finessed all the loans
And finessed all the grants
May they put it on Black
Like Kevin Durant

We gonna be alright now
Alright
We gonna be alright now
Alright
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now

2020 God damn you gave us plenty
Reasons to quit but we in season for this
Thank you for the Glory my story even exist
We covered in Mercy my earthly worth is a gift
I'm covered in flaws I'm hoping you can forgive
My pride my ego I'm struggling just to live
But, We the stronger type
So rather you wrong or right
You my brothers and sisters
We get along tonight
We got a longer flight
On this road traveled
Black male jail cell from a cold gavel
Black woman kidnapped sold like cattle
Tell me where these stories at on your news channel
Vigil every night in the hood so bring a candle
Us killing us is what they want but we can handle
All the pressure, this year was all the extra
Wealth, fame, and money
Time to change how we measure

We gonna be alright now
Alright
We gonna be alright now
Alright
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
Alright
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
Alright
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
Alright Now
We gonna be alright now
We gonna be alright now
