[Intro: Sweet Honey in the Rock]
Paul and Silas bound in jail
Had no money for to go their bail
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on hold on
Hold on, hold on
Keep your eyes on the prize,
Hold on hold on
[Opening Monologue: Zianna Oliphant]
I don't like how were treated and
Just because of our colour
Doesn’t mean anything to me.
I believe that, we are black people and we shouldn't have to feel like this
We shouldn't have to protest because ya'll are treating us wrong
We do this because we need to and have rights
[Chorus: Captain Ash]
These bullets coming at you
Who gon' take these bullets that’s mine? Noo (Amy Brill)
These bullets coming at you
Who gon' take these bullets that’s mine?
Who who who who?
Noo (Amy Brill)
[Verse: Captain Ash]
This situation got me nauseous
I take my wins out of my losses
I’m still searching what the cause is
I wanna be stood with the bosses
We need a beat (Amy Brill)
Produce it myself and loop it on repeat
Write a couple lyrics
Turn me to a freak
Take other perspectives
Whenever I speak (Amy Brill)
I know I am different
I'm also unique
Make sure I'm productive
Every single week, (Amy Brill)
Autopilot emotions
Whenever I speak (Amy Brill)
Gonna win a Grammy real soon
You know its peak,
Told myself aspire to bee better
I got that sting now I see better
Know what you want and go get it Mo'Nique
Know what you want so there's no reason to seek
[Bridge: Captain Ash & Amy Brill]
Yeah it’s a different kind of season
They kill my people for no reason
Me and my people won’t be weakened
We Count our blessings every weekend
[Chorus: Captain Ash & Amy Brill]
(no we won't be weak)These bullets coming at you
(no we won't be weak)
Who gon take these bullets for me that’s mine?
(no we won't be weak) Noo
(no we won't be weak) These bullets coming at you
(no we won't be weak)
Who gon take these bullets for me that’s mine?
(no we won't be weak)
Who who who who?
[extended Bridge: Captain Ash & Amy Brill]
Yeah it’s a different kind of season
They kill my people for no reason
Me and my people won’t be weakened
We Count our blessings every weekend
Gotta light gotta light gotta light gotta light my feelings
Gotta fight gotta fight gotta fight these demons
I'm my own hero won't stop dreaming
I save me going the deep end
