about

This track is about the on going struggle of Black Americans and law enforcement. It was written almost 6 yrs ago following the death of Eric Garner at the hands of the NYPD. Unfortunately today it still rings just as true.

lyrics

Face facts its hard to be
A color blind society
When daily its the same thing all the time
Too many treated different it blows my mind
If I, Just wanna breath a bit
Government gives me shit
Fucking tell me not to struggle
But they always wanna rumble
So I’m tryin not to stumble
Cuz I've always been a humble
Guy, guess its time to face it
When face down on the pavement
Guns drawn on our backs so I guess its true
This race shit doesn't matter until it's done to you
And I ( just wanna rage)
(so much I cant take)
Their one mistake
(we will not break again)

Handcuffed and they got you
But they’ll find a way if they want to
(now I've reached my tipping point) 2x
Too bad its always
Just facts all based on what they say
(now I've reached my tipping point) 2x

So they want to make it sound
Like it doesn't happen now
But we can see its a system problem
Look back to see if they ever solved them
Now their justified
In their homicides
And that's what they are lets make it clear
As long as they say it was caused by fear
So what, is there left to do
Guess its up to you
Do you fight for equal rights or do you quit
Do you act like you care or not give a shit
Cuz I (know that its hard)
(to get this far)
Time to move the bar
(and not let them start again)

Handcuffed and they got you
But they’ll find a way if they want to
(now I've reached my tipping point) 2x
Too bad its always
Just facts all based on what they say
(now I've reached my tipping point) 2x
To show we r one
Were gonna fight til the jobs done
(now I've reached my tipping point) 2x
Just business no fun
Heard black or blue here's the new one
(now I've reached my tipping point) 3x

their obsession with oppression
Their obsession with oppression ends now
Open your eyes 2x
I will not die 2x
I cant breathe 2x

Now i reached my tipping point
To show we r one
We must fight until the jobs done
(now I've reached my tipping point) 3x
