What You've Done

We asked ten years ago

We was asking with the panthers

We was asking with them, you know, it's civic rights movement

We was asking, you know, now

That those people that we were asking, they are all dead and in jail

So now, what do you think that we are gonna do?

And we shouldn't be angry?

At my raps that I'm rapping to my community shouldn't be filled with rage?

Sometimes I want to kick it with my people

Unfortunately, some don't even see me as their equal

They have this idea within their minds that I'm beneath them

Always in a secret competition, I don't need them

And when they pull that gun out on each other, it be lethal

Motherfuckers dying over nothing to defeat you

So many people scheming on you trying to delete you

Jealousy and envy's a result of what the street do

It's already bad enough the way your country treats you

I don't need my brothers treating me the way police do

As-salamu alaykum is the way I'd rather greet you

Peace and blessings cover us way better than a sheet do

Black Lives Matter not enough when the inner city's rough

Only come out for the cops but look what we do

Yeah, sun when will we have enough ain't you tired of this stuff

Who to trust when they all trying to deceive you

Don't you see what you've done? Done, done

Doesn't it matter to us? Us, us

I know the damage is done, done, done

But can we do better?

I'm a prophet (I'm a prophet), I ain't DemonEyez (I ain't DemonEyez)

I never gossip (never gossip), I look you in ya eyes (look you in ya eyes)

I'm like what's popin'? (What's popin'?) We can get to the prize

I was raised by the rides, Deep Waters, High Tides

See the moon's be full in March

That's more than likely when the wolfen starts

My good brothers (good brothers), my good sisters (good sisters)

My good mothers, good Mr's, good Mrs

I missed a lot of good summers, good winters

It's all good, even when we in the trenches (it's all good, it's all good)

We build businesses, they wanna lynch us (they wanna lynch us)

They ain't happy 'til we all dead and finished (they ain't happy)

Fake Bill of rights gave snakes killing rights (killers)

Legalize drugs took away our dealing rights

Call us Thug and Outlaws ain't even right

Officer of the goddamn law, you ain't living right

Don't you see what you've done? Done, done

Doesn't it matter to us? Us, us

I know the damage is done, done, done

But can we do better?

You know, life is about growing as a man, you know

Trials and tribulations

That's what makes you a man

How you overcome the obstacles of those trials and tribulations
