Villain To Me ft. J Soulstice Lyrics

I know poets with no penchant for words

In your time zone, smoking on the remnants of herb

Give me the penance of curb-biting, I'll skip to the step

In my presence, you third-tightest and silence is best

Think you conscious when you walking on the 1-2-3-4

Never finding pockets, we're supposed to be more!

Holders of the spoken mind, the voices of the muted

Rhyme to show them recourse without police recruited

I'm only chanting "Defund!" on the way to "Abolition!"

Squad cars, free guns, only buying ammunition

I've been itching for the revolution, no anarcho-fantasy

Simply pissed about the lynching's of my family

Crushed beneath the gravity, strangers in a strange land

I don't need no cavity searches or arraignments

Adopted by a culture that been pimped for entertainment

I will never be a vulture, I will never be an agent

You're something of a villain to me, yeah

False equivalences, trigger-finger itches

You're letting all of the killers go free, yeah

Fuel within the engine, mulch to sculpt to riches

Even if you stand alone, you got to stand up

If you love hip hop put your hands up!

"Don't shoot, Officer", those are scary words

When is law enforcement gonna get what they deserve?

We can choose to be silent, but that's what they prefer

It's time to question everything, and yes I mean everything

"By any means necessary" a quote from Malcolm X

Ray-vision 20-20, but now what happens next?

I'm tired of the pain, and underneath is captioned text

How can we focus on the good if we don't know what focus is?

We don't know what hopeful is, it's hard to step into blessings

Ones with privilege never understood systemic oppression

My ancestors used their voices so I can have choices

That's why I use my voice to show you what Blaqknoiz is

Less 'lil rappers more W.E.B. Du Bois-es

Bob Marley singing "Revolution", you cannot destroy this

You're something of a villain to me, yeah

False equivalences, trigger-finger itches

You're letting all of the killers go free, yeah

Fuel within the engine, mulch to sculpt to riches
