Riot For Me ft. Mesus Lyrics

What if I was on my knees and executed by police

What if I was being choked and they knew that I couldn't breathe

What if I was in the cop car and was killed in the back seat

With hands cuffed a lot behind me, y'all ain't losing any sleep

Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, and that's a fact

Ain't no protests with signs for me, cause I ain't black

Ain't no hashtags online for me, or fighting back

Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, bet y'all don't riot for me

Ain't it demonic how the news make a piece of shit look iconic

How ironic, if the ratings go up, so does the profits

You can change the station, but the reading from the same script

White man gunned down by police, ain't nobody play that clip

No one gave a shit, I won't get no famous case

I won't get no downtown monument where they paint my face

I won't get no NFL jersey spot that say my name

Oh that's right, since I'm white the situation ain't the same

Black lives matter, Asian lives matter, Spanish lives matter

Ain't allowed to say Caucasian lives matter

Why? That don't fit the narrative, that would mean equality

Truth in the mainstream media, that's mythology

they been using my people, your people, good people, poor people

Either we wake up or they gon' keep on using more people

I tried to warn people, supply them the truth

If the victim was me, y'all wouldn't riot and loot

What if I was on my knees and executed by police

What if I was being choked and they knew that I couldn't breathe

What if I was in the cop car and was killed in the back seat

With hands cuffed a lot behind me, y'all ain't losing any sleep

Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, and that's a fact

Ain't no protests with signs for me, cause I ain't black

Ain't no hashtags online for me, or fighting back

Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, bet y'all don't riot for me

This is so exhausting, way the news talking

It's like black folks only once dead in coffins

Black on black ain't a tragedy

Guess news cameras ran out of batteries

Live by the gun, die by the gun

When it happens in the hood, y'all ain't saying none

But soon as that trigger finger white, y'all be tearing shit up on the same night

Say I ain't right, say I ain't white

Let's say that I'm black

Get pulled over, try to run away and scrap

Reaching for the strap, but he get it first

So I slug him in the face at the same time that it burst

Now I'm just another reason to write a name on a shirt

When the truth is I just got what I deserve

When you playing dumb games than you win a dumb prize

unless it whites killing blacks, they don't give a fuck who dies

When you gonna realize they just trying to divide us

Red, white and blue, it's the colors that unite us

Getting sick and tired of the looting and the riots

When the truth is if I was dead, then y'all be dead silent

What if I was on my knees and executed by police

What if I was being choked and they knew that I couldn't breathe

What if I was in the cop car and was killed in the back seat

With hands cuffed a lot behind me, y'all ain't losing any sleep

Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, and that's a fact

Ain't no protests with signs for me, cause I ain't black

Ain't no hashtags online for me, or fighting back

Ain't nobody bout to riot for me, bet y'all don't riot for me
