lyrics

State of paranoia
Blues living on
White voice si

Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded

Seeing too many American flags
I'm stressed out
Police on the block
I'm vexed you asked how
Contradictions of alliance
Skeptical who is serving
It's fireworks, choppers roam dark clouds from burning
Living in the O State, Red State
Trump flags planted through the whole state don't make the OH great
Constant paranoia
White man in a F 1 50 many men wish death, so I run
Should I cop a piece to keep some peace of mind
My pops said don't if I don't plan to use it
It's a war inside my head I feel i'm losing
Black man vs America shit is abusing
Defund cause they not defending us
Antagonist in servicemen uniforms killing us
I went to Ena's for some chicken, saw what I couldn't believe
White cop walked in with a shooting sleeve
What the fuck

Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded
Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded

If I die from the police told my Mama to bring violence
If my white friends ain't vocal bring protest and riots
Hit FWD in broad day, detach it
I remember Ray got dragged out
Fuck it attack it
Black Trans Life matters
If they not getting justice then its all a disaster
Black thought, black worry, black sanity matters
We lost Trayvon on my 18th birthday
Few years later, met his mama and it shock me the worst way
I'm black hoodied and masked up
I wanna throw a brick through every window on Main street
But that ain't my lane bruh
I wrote a million verses just to cop with the pain bruh
Play my role and maintain
Thick sole on dry leaves
Woke up early in cold sweats, tears, and dry heaves
Walked a mile, wrote my bros and and sisters to find peace
Like when we leave I say be safe
Tell my niggas they legends
What an impact that shit makes

Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded
Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded

Can't sleep helicopters in my window
Nightmares that I'm next
Anxiety a heavyweight sitting on my chest
Sirens in my daydreams giving me more stress
Please, I'm only reaching for my wallet
Why you got yo gun drawn
We can do without it
Don't ask me why I mistrust
You give me every single reason I should doubt it

State paranoia
Blues living on
Silence

State of paranoia
Blues living
Blues living on us

Still Nigga
Years later they still killing and getting off
I fear that the next kids world is still ours
Man progress move too slow when its our cause
Public lynchings on iPhones
This the type of trauma they think we can put ice on
A couple thoughts and prayers but they still send the salt for em
We tired
Thinking bout the cop that upped on me
What if he fired
Blam
Nappy headed rapper dead in Cleveland
The reason is undetermined but I think we're seeing a wallet
With an ID of prestigious college
Damn, we thought it was a gun its a fucking wallet
Thinking bout headlines
Would people come to my defense
Would they say stop the violence if my thoughts was go against
I suppressed this shit for many years
Didn't wanna put it in a verse cause its my biggest fear
And it can happen

Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded
Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded

Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded
Black man
Red state
State of paranoia
Blue boys
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded

Ooooh
State of paranoia
Blues living on
White voice silent

Black man
Red state
State of Paranoia
Blue Boy
Blue lights
Blues living on ya
Black lives
White noise
Black joy
White voice silent
Pray we all guarded
