Devil Ride ft. Eric Fells Lyrics

What do you do when death is the norm

Been begging for years, see no reform

Shot that man Oscar on the BART platform

Got no time 'cause of the uniform

We take to the streets and we cry our tears

Feel no relief though we try to heal

Can't rest in peace, we live in fear

Even if we comply that our fate is sealed

We must divest from these systems when

Murder is usual business

See no semblance of civility

Time to take responsibility

'Cause if you let the devil ride he'll wanna drive, yeah

If you let the devil ride he'll wanna drive, yeah

Devil be prejudice, Devil be hate

Don't let him sit in the passenger's seat

You let the devil ride he'll wanna drive

He'll wanna drive, yeah

He'll wanna drive

He'll wanna drive, yeah

He'll wanna drive

Devil be prejudice, Devil be hate

Don't let him sit in the passenger's seat

You let the devil ride he'll wanna drive

Been four years now can't take no more

Came in the night, kicked in the door

Shot Breonna, we all wept

So many days and no justice felt

We take to the polls, you suppress our votes

Ain't safe in our homes, where do we go?

How many times can you show your hate

'Fore black rage turns to a burning blaze

'Cause if you let the devil ride he'll wanna drive, yeah

If you let the devil ride he'll wanna drive, yeah

Devil be prejudice, Devil be hate

Don't let him sit in the passenger's seat

You let the devil ride he'll wanna drive

He'll wanna drive, yeah

He'll wanna drive

He'll wanna drive, yeah

He'll wanna drive

Devil be prejudice, Devil be hate

Don't let him sit in the passenger's seat

You let the devil ride he'll wanna drive

Sick of hearing the lies

Our spirit is gonna shift it

Our people ain't gonna die

Our children are gonna thrive

Giving up all my limits

Higher power is limitless

Setting all my intentions

Living in my ascension

Lesser men stoke fear

Better angels appear

Four centuries with me

Ancestors stay near

Ain't killed us yet

Some reason still try

Our season draws nigh

We young, gifted and fly

'Cause if you let the devil ride he'll wanna drive, yeah

If you let the devil ride he'll wanna drive, yeah

Devil be prejudice, Devil be hate

Don't let him sit in the passenger's seat

You let the devil ride he'll wanna drive

He'll wanna drive, yeah

He'll wanna drive

He'll wanna drive, yeah

He'll wanna drive

Devil be prejudice, Devil be hate

Don't let him sit in the passenger's seat

You let the devil ride he'll wanna drive
