Paroles de Hands Up!

My Lord, my Lord, uh
Uh, yeah, uh

They shootin' niggas down like it's '65
They shootin' niggas down like it's '68
They shootin' niggas down like the slave days, wait
They shootin' niggas down like the slave days
I feel like Fred Hampton with a AK
I feel like Fred Hampton with a AK
Nigga, don't get trampled in this melee
Nigga, don't get trampled in this melee

You wanna stay safe? You better bare a metal arm like a prosthetic
Me, my niggas hotboxin' in a box Chevy
It's goin' down, I can see where hip hop's headed
So put your hands up, like a cop said it

Hands up (Hands up)
(I need to see ya motherfuckin' hands in the air)
Hands up (Hands up)
(And wave 'em from side to side like you just don't care)
Hands up (Hands up)
(Cops still gon' shoot us)
Keep your hands up (Keep your hands up)
(Hands up like you just don't give a fuck)
I see niggas, makin' they lil lists
But next to Grip they don't exist, they ain't built like this
Niggas flexed up, quick to blow a check on a bitch
Better get a Tec to protect the Patek on ya wrist
And for that shit that's on ya neck, niggas will take a risk
They tryna make a dollar stretch, your lame ass look like a lick
And real niggas ain't buyin' all that shit you kick
But the kids eat it up that's when the plot gets thick
'Cause see a kid'll learn a song before they learn how to read
So if it's nothing in your lines how is they gon' succeed
I know you gotta play the game you got a family to feed
But if we shackle our own mental then we'll never be freed
I said my piece I hope I ain't come off as preachy but at least
I utilized my reach to hug every nigga out in these streets
I do it for love, not credit, and any beef I pray
You and your ops dead it, and if not

You wanna stay safe? You better bare a metal arm like a prosthetic
Me, my niggas hotboxin' in a box Chevy
It's goin' down, I can see where hip hop's headed
So put your hands up, like a cop said it

Hands up (Hands up)
(I need to see ya motherfuckin' hands in the air)
Hands up (Hands up)
(And wave 'em from side to side like you just don't care)
Hands up (Hands up)
(Cops still gon' shoot us)
Keep your hands up (Keep your hands up)
(Hands up like you just don't give a fuck)
