lyrics

Flashing lights
Red ass tint
A blue life
Late nights
My black skin
I swear I'm innocent
Take it down
Yes your hood
Do it now
My face is down
On the ground
You should take your hood off first
And if I'm gonna die
I'm talking shit

But they did not like that at all
A sucker punch right to my jaw
I had a chance and fought the law
Grabbed my gun and set it off

On the run
My face is on the news
If I stayed I'd be slain
And I got too much to lose
Self defense only wins when you're blue
Hiding out
Growing doubt
in my room
Maybe I should give it up
They're closing in

But they did not see me at all
Lurking in-between the wall
Fake my death grow my hair long
Grabbed my gun and set it off
