Done had a dream
Mama named me malcom, I was always on the scene
Summer had to leave, ordinary peep
All the work I put in later on, I had to plea
All my people weep, ay
Then I woke up, uh
Shit was all fucked, uh
Got black on black (black on black)
White on black (white on black)
Blue on black (black)
Everything on black (black)
All this shit is whack, can't believe we gon' back
(Clean up) stop with the bullshit
(Clean up) you don't need no four clip
(Enough) let go all our people
(Enough) yeah, skin is black
Can barely eat
All the tribulations got me clenching down my teeth
Tryna keep the peace, marching with good peeps
So much living legеnds and they wanna kill the themе
Floyd couldn't breathe, ah
Gotta wake up, uh
Shit is all fucked, ay
Got black on black skin (black on black)
White on black (white on black)
Blue on black (black)
Everything on black, (black) uh
All this shit is whack, can't believe we gon' back
(Clean up) stop with the bullshit
(Clean up) you don't need no four clip
(Enough) let go all our people
(Enough) yeah, skin is black
Salute to malcom
(Ooh) and dr. King
(Ooh) prince elijah and prince ahmaud
(Ooh) rest in peace, george floyd
(Ooh) rest in peace, breonna taylor
(Ooh) so much lost, but never forgotten
(Ooh) God, we need you now more than ever
Yeah
