No Lives Matter (Explicit)

No Lives Matter (Explicit) - Body Count

Written by：Ernie C./Ice-T

It's unfortunate that we even have to say 'black lives matter'

I mean if you go through history nobody ever gave a f**k

I mean you can kill black people in the street

Nobody goes to jail nobody goes to prison

But when I say 'black lives matter'

And you say 'all lives matter'

That's like if I was to say 'gay

Lives matter' and you say 'all lives matter'

If I said 'women's lives matter'

And you say 'all lives matter'

You're diluting what I'm saying

You're diluting the issue

The issue isn't about everybody

It's about black lives at the moment

But the truth of the matter is

They don't really give a f**k about anybody

If you break this sh*t all the way down to

The low f**king dirty a** truth

We say that 'black lives matter'

Well truthfully they really never have

No one ever really gave a f**k

Just read your b******t history books

But honestly it ain't just black

It's yellow it's brown it's red

It's anyone who ain't got cash

Poor whites that they call trash

They can't f**k with us

Once they realise we're all on the same side

They can't split us up

And let them prosper off the divide

They can't f**k with us

Once they realize we're all on the same side

They can't split us up

And let them prosper off the divide

Don't fall for the bait and switch

Racism is real but not it

They f**k whoever can't fight back

But now we gotta change all that

The people have had enough

Right now it's them against us

This sh*t is ugly to the core

When it comes to the poor

No lives matter

America's always been

A place that judge my skin

And racism is real as f**k

Ain't no way to play that off

And in the eyes of the law

Black skin has always stood for poor

This is basic sh*t

They know who they f**king with

They can't f**k with us

Once they realise we're all on the same side

They can't split us up

And let them prosper off the divide

They can't f**k with us

Once they realize we're all on the same side

They can't split us up

And let them prosper off the divide

Don't fall for the bait and switch

Racism is real but not it

They f**k whoever can't fight back

But now we gotta change all that

The people have had enough

Right now it's them against us

This sh*t is ugly to the core

When it comes to the poor

No lives matter

You never see them pulling rich people out of

Their cars in their neighbourhoods

Because they know they got lawyers

They know they'll sue their a** they can tell who to f**k with

Unfortunately black or brown skin has always meant poor

They're profiling you kid

They know you can't fight back

But we about to

Investigators say they are reviewing

Body camera and dashcam video of tuesday's shooting

Police say that keith lamont scott

Did have a gun in his hand when an officer shot him

But a new picture of the scene shows

Something at scott's feet

A source tells our charlotte affiliate it may be a gun

But people in the neighbourhood say

The father of four was holding a book instead

Officer vinson was in plain clothes when the shooting happened

He was not wearing a body worn camera

But we are told that three other officers wore theirs

The department is under increasing pressure to release

Police videos from the shooting

But the police chief says he will not do

That right now because of the investigation

Don't fall for the bait and switch

Racism is real but not it

They f**k whoever can't fight back

But now we gotta change all that

The people have had enough

Right now it's them against us

This sh*t is ugly to the core

When it comes to the poor

No lives matter

This sh*t is ugly to the core

When it comes to the poor

No lives matter

This sh*t is ugly to the core

When it comes to the poor

No lives matter
