True

Lil' tear gas cleared the whole place out

I'll be back with the hazmat for the next round

We was tryin' to protest then the fires broke out

Look out for the secret agents they be planted in the crowd

Like you don't hear the screams when we catchin' beatdowns

Stayin' quiet when they killin' n***as but you speak loud

When we ride got opinions comin' from a place of priv'

Sicker than the COVID how they did him on the ground

Speakin' of the COVID is it still goin' around

Oh won't you tell me 'bout the lootin' what's that really all about

'Cause they throw away black lives like paper towels

Plus unemployment rate what forty million now

Killed a man in broad day might never see a trial

We just wanna break chains like slaves in the South

Started in the North End but we in the downtown

Riot cops try to block now we gotta show down

Citizens of Los Angeles

D**n

I hereby declare this to be an unlawful assembly

And in the name of the people of the State of California

You should've been downtown

The people are risin'

Right here

We thought it was a lockdown

They opened the fire

Them bullets was flyin'

Lockdown

Who said it was a lockdown godd**n lie

We ain't gotta stop 'cause they tell us to

And downtown where I got popped with the rubber bullet

Tre pound got it in my name now I'ma shoot it

Never understand why they do it

Someone cut the channel off the news 'fore I loose it

Lah

I ain't even trippin' if you wit' it then we lootin'

Nah

Help me put this Louis in the back of Suzuki

Ooh o-he

Had to break it down so smoothly

Slow

Okay

Got the tre pound had to put in my name

Wish a n***a play now

Yeah

Any given day I'll be headed to the pulpits

Yeah

Say a lil' prayer matter fact I need two of 'em

Ooh

Only do it only do it

Ooh

This ain't '92 so we learn the new rules

N***a got hip so we don't loot the projects

'Bout to hit Rodeo with my lil' cousin Marcus

Someone threw a whole brick in the Neiman Marcus

Ah

Help me put the whole mannequin in the Charger

You should've been downtown

Down

The people are risin'

Look around

We thought it was a lockdown

Lockdown

They opened the fire

Had to get low fire

Them bullets was flyin'

Down down

Who said it was a lockdown godd**n lie

Ooh-wee

Lockdown we ain't gotta stop 'cause they tell us to

And downtown where I got popped with the rubber bullet

Tre pound

Uh got it in my name now I'ma shoot it

Lockdown we ain't gotta stop 'cause they tell us to

And downtown
