[00:00:39] Color of morning pee coming out of the sink

[00:00:41] It's 2016 who would think

[00:00:44] Kids in america don't have clean water to drink

[00:00:47] Like they cut the ebt took 'em off of the link

[00:00:49] I read a story about a woman with her daughter in flint

[00:00:51] She got lead poisoning from showers in the morning

[00:00:54] When the governor switched out the pipes to bring the water in

[00:00:57] To the city river cause he said they can't afford to get clean water

[00:01:00] So now the poor people get the shorter end

[00:01:02] Of the stick ain't that some bullshit

[00:01:04] Shorty thirsty he just bought his fourth fifth

[00:01:06] It's lead in the water gun he dying from a full clip

[00:01:09] Now you've got toddlers drinking toxic waste

[00:01:12] While the people responsible still ain't caught no case

[00:01:14] I don't get it man I just ain't wit it man

[00:01:16] They got damn daniel distracting you on instagram

[00:01:19] Back again with the all-white media coverage

[00:01:21] They do it over and over like remedial subjects

[00:01:24] The people with the least always gotta pay the most

[00:01:26] We the first to go when they deleting them budgets

[00:01:29] Can a ni**a get his basic human rights

[00:01:31] Is that too much to ask should I say it more polite

[00:01:34] And everybody broke so we in the same boat

[00:01:36] But would they let that b**ch sink if we was white

[00:01:38] It got me shades of blue

[00:01:39] Rain or shine it's all blue it's all blue

[00:01:44] Ain't no sun it's all blue it's all blue

[00:01:50] Purple haze in a daze it's all blue it's all blue

[00:01:54] Change gon' come it's all you it's all on you

[00:02:00] It's all blue all blue

[00:02:04] It's all blue all blue

[00:02:10] The skies stay gray around my way around my way

[00:02:19] Waking up to the morning sun in detroit

[00:02:22] I'll be with the people when they come for the boy

[00:02:24] Everybody tryna be american idols

[00:02:27] My x-factor is I'm the only one with the voice

[00:02:29] It's bigger than us these kids listen to us

[00:02:32] That's why I give 'em that truth cause they don't get it enough

[00:02:34] We making b**ches and hoes out our women too much

[00:02:37] We can't trust ourselves and we don't know who to trust

[00:02:39] It ain't enough for police to wear body cams

[00:02:42] Cause niggas still gettin' tazed and body slammed

[00:02:44] And cigarettes'll kill you on their own

[00:02:46] But they'll kill you for a cigarette I honor eric garner fam'

[00:02:49] I'm a part of him he a part of me

[00:02:52] I'm a prodigy in these prada jeans

[00:02:54] I'm tryna' make my partners a part of the election

[00:02:57] So you ain't gotta presidential pardon me

[00:02:59] And pardon me but why is it that the darker must suffer

[00:03:02] How do we protect the culture from the vultures

[00:03:05] There's a cold war every summer in the chi

[00:03:07] It's a snowball effect from the cold war in russia

[00:03:09] But vladimir putin ain't in the hood recruitin'

[00:03:12] And derrick rose ain't the only one out here shootin'

[00:03:15] They set fire to their own squad cars

[00:03:17] And a b**ch on the news gon' blame it on the lootin'

[00:03:20] Now here I am talking 'bout a revolution

[00:03:22] And I can't even spare a dollar to the movement

[00:03:24] But I'm in the strip club spending dollars on that movement

[00:03:27] I guess we all got room for improvement

[00:03:30] Rain or shine it's all blue it's all blue

[00:03:35] Ain't no sun it's all blue it's all blue

[00:03:40] Purple haze in a daze it's all blue it's all blue

[00:03:45] Change gon' come it's all you it's all on you
