Take The Chains Off

Lyrics

[Hook:J.Cole] All we wanna do is take the chains off All we wanna do is break the chains off All we wanna do is take the chains off [verse 1] Institutional mentality been in me since I was born Who am I? what's my purpose? I feel like the black Jason Bourne This life feels like porn, cause my people constantly getting fucked That concept you couldn't accept because you still stuck On the fact that I said our life is like porn, you so dumb The freedom bell rung, this life is like porn, and we waiting for it to come But still it ain't came like candy rain it never will I'm porcupine try to stab me in my spine you get stabbed by my quill Cause there ain't no trust, protect and serve, more like kill at will the nerve Of you officers treating my people like foreigners with no rights And if die bet a hundred niggas ride tonight Being polite isn't my type so fuck Alton sterling killer and his wife Fuck philando castiles killer and his wife Cause all we wanna do is take the chains off All we wanna do is be free [Hook:J.Cole] [Verse 2] Look me in my eyes, tell me what you seeing Do you see a creature with strange features or a human being With a heart just like you and a brain just like you and I bleed just like you In case you race judgers never knew that we people too I gotta talk about it, don't try to lower my voice In fact put this on blast like you don't got a choice Ima sing my negro spirituals till I start to see miracles All lives don't matter if black lives don't matter, there's principles Type of rules you fools gotta follow If you dont, what makes you different from A hoe that swallow On her knees with no sense of dignity I don't need sympathy I just wanna be free! All we wanna do is take the chains off All we wanna do is be free(x2) [Hook:J.Cole] [Verse 3] Full force like a kick to your grill Your blood blue but turns red when it spills It's all colors so don't trip and we won't kill We United and strong minded that's the real Ideal that the white man fears Bullet penetrating a black hating white man a bring him to tears Does it scare you to know I don't fear you The young king surrounded by gangsta uncles who love they nephew Ooh I'm color blind when it come to them gang signs No beef it's peace but touch mine and you crossed the line I define the definition of a gangsta poet spitting Stories the streets know but this is for white man to listen Understand you can't kill a black man And expect us to be calm we won't stand For the bullshit, a full clip, unload till the shit click Do you feel this, we don't miss, reload let the gun shit Mr.officer better stay with coroner Cause we see in black and white...
