[Intro]

Breaking news from Baltimore, a city on edge since the death of a suspect while in police custody, his spine nearly severed. Tonight those tensions fueling violent protests now. Dramatic images coming in at this hour. You can see some people there on the streets throwing rocks and bricks at police officers

[Verse 1]

Lil homies livin' like it's no tomorrow

Caught a charge smokin' large in a stolen car

He called his mom, guess he figured she would post his bond

Times have changed and she really runnin' low on funds

Hung up the phone, in the cell still in his Foams

Reekin' of the weed, that's all his money blown

Now it's time to tell yourself, nigga, "We gon' make it"

And 15 hundred cash, nigga, we gon' make it

A free felon on their ass, nigga, we gon' make it

Homie steppin' on the gas, nigga, we gon' make it

I told myself so many times, nigga, we gon' make it

Cryin' in the dark, nigga, we gon' make it

Countin' cash 6 days, nigga, we gon' make it

Let them haters be the haters, nigga we gon' make it

Put your back against the wall, nigga we gon' make it

And if you black, this for us all, nigga we gon' make it

[Chorus]

They say we just a bunch of thugs, don't stand for nothin'

Disgrace to our race, don't belong in public

It was us against the world from the first day

Let us bow our heads, may we all pray

Throwin' bricks at the man, we gon' make it

Genocide not in the plans, we gon' make it

Pray my son understands, we gon' make it

Know God holdin' our hands, we gon' make it

[Verse 2]

No power in December, nigga we gon' make it

Stove open, I remember, nigga we gon' make it

These the words mama whispered, we gon' make it

Still holdin' on my pistol, nigga we gon' make it

I seen a lot of niggas fall, still standin' tall

And a lot of people talk you've never seen talk

When your man testify, that's a coin toss

Never trust niggas, hit 'em with a moonwalk

Billie Jean, Billie Jean, oh Billie Jean

Say a prayer for my team, we gon' make it

Hold your head to the sky, we gon' make it

All my niggas gettin' high, we gon' make it

[Chorus]

They say we just a bunch of thugs, don't stand for nothin'

Disgrace to our race, don't belong in public

It was us against the world from the first day

Let us bow our heads, may we all pray

Throwin' bricks at the man, we gon' make it

Genocide not in the plans, we gon' make it

Pray my son understands, we gon' make it

Know God holdin' our hands, we gon' make it

[Outro]

Demonstrators jumping on police cars, setting some on fire, the city in rubbles, rubber bullet shooting chaos. Looters robbing stores in broad daylight

They sayin' we animals and we actin' like we ready to go 'head

If you don't bring him to justice, if you don't bring him to town square, you're gonna see all these people in your motherfuckin' neighborhood
