Dear America ft. Merc Lyrics

Sometimes I feel so alone

I would like to go but don't know where is home

The only home that I've known don't feel too much like home

I wish I knew where i'm from

But I know where i'm going, deep inside myself to find the strength to keep going

Think I'm all out of questions even the God they gave me couldn't make them accept me

I accept all my blessings, I expect the troubles that come along with my complexion

Because my mind is a weapon the FBI put cameras on me and label me an extremist

As if my life ain't extreme enough, as if being black in America ain't an extreme sport

The type of justice I need I can't get in court

Let's amend the constitution but ratify our morals first

Dear America

Dear America

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

Dear America

Dear America

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

They murdered Malcom, murdered Martin, murdered Huey

Murdered Fred Hampton ran Chesimard to Cuba

Polices shoot at everyone and everything except the white shooters

No room for era when you black

Trayvon Martin can show you that

Eric Garner can show you that

Sandra Bland can show you that

Tamir Rice can show you that

That list can go on and on but it ain't enough song

For years its been the same songs I wonder if we left y'all alone

Who would be the pawns, who would fill your prison rooms

Instead of prisons lets build schools though it may seem common sense

How bout paying teachers more instead of arming them with Guns

As i arm the youth for their future

I know its possible someone would want to take my future

The price you pay to be black, conscious and brave enough

To speak about injustices we go through everyday

Dear America

Dear America

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

Dear America

Dear America

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

My condolences to Parkland, wish the country had that same energy for Ferguson

Some i struggle with now is being marked by my conscious

Know I'm smart and intelligent enough to be doing something

God gave me Blakkk but still somehow i still had more questions

Scenarios made up in my mind where my intentions were questioned

I visit shows around the city watch the artist get busy

Check myself cause i'm human ask God to take way my envy

Are you discipline enough to turn yourself to Black Jesus

Not in the sense of being God but realizing you needed

To help and heal all your people, responsibilities given to myself by myself

What it look like in your mirror

Are you afraid of yourself

If you asking me I'll say nah but theres a conversation if we talking what I'll become

Least the perception of, picture me labeled militant

But what they think about now or ever never my biz

So with that piece of reasoning I'm breaking out all my chains

Most important one being right on top of my brain

At this moment i claim victory over all my fears

I've had special people tell me that i'm special myself

I never really understood how people look up to me

And people I look up to probably be thinking the same

Guess some things just meant to be and thats pain in itself

Tryna' understand but acceptance turn into bliss

Although my spirit is rich loves the ultimate wealth

Hope you receive this in good spirits and start loving yourself

And if you already do go start loving someone else

Because we all that we got all across the whole world

So dear America

Sexy America

Gracious America

Pretty ass America

Dear America

Dear America

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

Dear America

Dear America

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

Dear America

Dear America

Dear America, this an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out

This an open letter to you hope you hear me out
