Knee On Your Neck

lyrics

Woke up this morning not knowing how to feel
Should I hunger-strike a meal or burn a Dolla bill?
City's turned to chaos cuz these killer cops kill
Humans fed up with this shit
Our stomachs had our fill...

To the point that we’re blowing up
vomiting our anger
Dominator Culture, no longer is a stranger
Critical mass reaching danger, danger
My money’s on my people
That’s always been the wager

George Floyd’s murder
Sparked a match
Fire in the manger
Dagger in our hearts
Souls left with bad flavor

Strangled by a pig
See his eyes I see decision
To bring you live
Triple-K racism

That’s Black Execution Television in 4K
These chiefs same devils
That used to own slaves
MLK and Malcom surely rolling in their graves

I don’t know what to do
I’m sick of being afraid
All I know is we cannot
continue this charade
When we stop killing black people
earth’ll be saved

Over-seer officer
Calm down and do me a fav
Not here to loot and riot
So don’t tell me to behave!, yeah!

Hook:

His Knee is on your neck too!
His Knee is on your neck too!
His Knee is on your neck too!
His Knee is on your neck too!


Verse 2

His knee's on your neck
Crushing your wind pipe spirit
Boots of authority
The youth ain’t trying to hear it
See me when you see me Dunny
On my about to tear it
(Where?)
Downtown LA
Bring your beats
Brings your lyrics
Raise a brick fuck chuck it
Then make it disappear it
Molotov cocktail
Raise your fist up pivot

Leave your cellphone cuz they tracking yo ass
Better have your bus pass and your Psycho Realm mask

Tear gas smash
As the machine’s cannons blast
The task at hand is to tear down this caste
Through a partner-society
We grow the future fast
Where white supremacy is a thing of the past, Yeah!


Hook:

His Knee is on your neck too!
His Knee is on your neck too!
His Knee is on your neck too!
His Knee is on your neck too!

His knee is on my neck too!
His knee is on my neck too!
His knee is on my neck too!
His knee is on my neck too!

His knee is on my neck...
I can't fucking breath!
I can't fucking breath!
I...can't...breath...
