Everyone knows who Rekia Boyd, Trayvon Martin, and the other victims are; however do we know most of the perpetrators of these crimes? This song is an open letter to them.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Dear George Zimmerman,
Hope in your nightmares you see his face and remember him,
February 26, 2012,
if there is one hope that day it condemned you to hell,
Couldn’t image the pain his parents are dealing with,
See you celebrated ain’t that a fucking bitch,
Follow and harass’em confront’em try and gett’em,
Ass beat pull the pistol and now you the victim,
911 even told you don’t follow,
apparently the part of it ringing hollow,
But hey all lives matter I get it,
Unless it ain’t someone that looks like one of your kids,
It’s a shame my sons can’t wear a hoodie in rain,
Without being a thug and worthy of being slain,
What if he was white what would you think then,
Would he be right I’d let it sink in.

Chorus:
They told me violence is not the way,
Convincing myself times better,
Reality has something else to say,
Sittin penning this open letter,
(Repeat).

Verse 2:
Dear Detective Servin,
You’re walking around free when life you should be serving,
I hope you’re suicidal when you’re home alone,
I hope Rukia’s name chill you to the bone,
What the fuck were you doing off duty that had you spooked,
Had looking down an alley pull a pistol and shoot,
Open and shut trade uni for a jumpsuit,
Should’ve known facts and evidence would never due,
Again all lives matter is the hashtag,
Like always they got the wrong parts back,
Judge Porter should lose his spot on the bench,
For letting him go even though he acknowledged what he did,
Beyond reckless but still not guilty,
Checklist fulfill another niggas killin,
But that’s okay ya’ll gone feel this pain,
When the cops start killing ya’ll too late to complain.

Chorus:
They told me violence is not the way,
Convincing myself times better,
Reality has something else to say,
Sittin penning this open letter,
(Repeat).
