Help Me Understand Lyrics

Tell me why

Tell me why

Tell me why

Tell me why

Tell me why

Tell me why

Tell me why

Tell me why

We out protesting for peace

When they kill niggas in the streets

Now they hanging us on trees like it’s 1863

I been feeling like the only one who want revenge is me

Scared to go eye for an eye

Like we would rather watch us bleed

I don’t know why we keep pandering

And tryna pull they teeth

Knowing they can’t let you breathe

Cuz they know just who you be

If you remembered who you are

Then you’d move different word to me

Said it once but I’m convinced

They only hear me over beats

They relish in the fact you overzealous

And you always tryna turn the other cheek

Been on the blocks for weeks

But everyday a nigga still gonna wake up

And see the boys in blue been doing as they please

I’m convinced that you insane

Cuz the only piece i’m tryna keep is this .45

I got tucked inside my briefs

Fuck all that love and light bullshit they tryna preach

Cuz King got popped

And all he did was speak his peace

Just help me understand

Just help me understand how you love someone that hates you

Knowing that that hatred only started cuz they ain’t you

Built a nation off our backs

Cuz them niggas wasn’t able

Just help me understand

How you misread the play

When they cards out on the table

I don’t think we can coexist

I think that shit a fable

Being honest cuz I know them boys Is scared to lose they label

But fuck it

They on top now

Been running the clock down

All this time i would think

That niggas fed up

We should take the win

Cuz we know they’ll never let us

I might go get a choppa

To go with my new Beretta

If we never apply

Then they’ll never feel the pressure

Need to let these niggas know that They aint welcome in our sector

I think I’m at a point

I wanna show em why we better

Cuz I know that’s the shit

That all them niggas really scared of

I’m tired of tired of them raping and killing women

And stealing all of our children

This shit in front of our eyes dawg

Lately my whole mentality hella grimace

I bid them niggas good riddance

Could give a fuck if they die off

Know I’m sicker than niggas

That got that dry cough

And never took no time off

Passion get the best of me

Can’t say that i won’t fire arms

Weirdo shit acceptable

But demonizing our norms

Took all of their problems

And somehow they made it our storm

Just help me understand it

I been all in my feelings

And I wanna do some damage

But I won’t lose my life for

Niggas who can’t understand it

The war they waging goes beyond

Plane that we breathe air in

Find yo roots and get yo bearings

Or you might just end up vanished

No fear inside a scrap

So with a strap might get too manic

Poppin’ at the problem cuz

That’s they all they understanding

I could meet you where you at

But I ain’t really with the antics

Just help me understand

Just help me understand

How you love someone that hates you

Knowing that that hatred

Only started cuz they ain’t you

And it’s boiling yo blood

Cuz they knew they couldn’t slay you

Just help me understand

Just help me understand

How you make peace with the shits

Tell me why you fine

That this shit is like it is

Can’t be the only one wish

It would cease to exist

Just help me understand

Just help me understand

How you love someone that hates you

Knowing that that hatred

Only started cuz they ain’t you

Just help me understand

Just help me understand

How you make peace with ya shit

Just help me understand

How you that much of a bitch

Just help me understand

Made us think it’s our hands

Just help me understand

Just help me understand

Just help me understand

How you make peace with ya shit

Just help me understand

How you that much of a bitch

Just help me understand
