[Verse 1]
I’m starting to heat up, like the planet
I’m sending signs, crying out for help
But I’m talking to deaf people, who only think of jackpots
And album equivalents, I’m going to throw shots
There are few people I trust, family and no one else; I’m not cutting ties with relations
And how many times have words been put in my mouth
And they go grrr behind my back thinking that we won’t cross paths tomorrow
When the dish is out of the oven, I swear to God, if you even put your hands in it...
It could be disturbing if I told the younger generation that their ancestors were chained up
Nigga, millions of Muslims in cells, locked up and tortured in China
Supposed to love each other and coexist without spilling each other’s blood, Man endlessly sows
Violence and hate, yeah; obscenity is taught from a very young age
[Refrain]
On the front page
Another black man caged up
They said, “Kill him”
The family is outraged
If it’s family, we’re going to get involved
They’ll remix the facts on tv
The following day, on the front page
More blacks caged up
[Verse 2]
Sometimes, I wonder, "What if I played dead? Or lived like a hermit?"
I realize that I’ve met quite a lot of people but socially, it’s horrible
It's only when we talk about payments that we look each other in the eye
Even at weddings and funerals, everyone’s got their phone in their hands
How am I supposed to hide from my kids that the world is violent?
The screens hold the reins of upbringing
Before a war, people speak with so much venom
After the war, there are always thousands of orphans
I feel like a caged lion, or one seated on a million worth of cash
All the nice words they said to me didn't last, that’s why I prefer to be with my family
I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth, I know that I need to save some money
Black and rich, I don't deal in snow, why do these bitches want to see me go bankrupt?
[Refrain]
On the front page
Another black man caged up
They said, “Kill him”
The family is outraged
If it’s family, we’re going to get involved
They’ll remix the facts on tv
The following day, on the front page
More blacks caged up
