all i want all i need i just want the truth i just want the truth all i want all i need is to focus on you is to focus on you all i want we thought they would take us serious and would listen if we ain t furious so we painted our picket signs and we blessed the due process and we learned the constitution and believed in the bill of rights and learned our country s history like you we stood against that tyranny and survived the three fifths compromise only to sharecrop and then jim crow and then red lines and we figured it was high time so we organized two by two because we desired service we were nervous but we deserved to be treated like we were citizens and survived them fire hydrants and the wild dogs and crooked laws only to get smacked with that war on drugs and crack attack but we believed you made our hashtags and you mocked us but we broke our necks just to hold our chins up and them anti gang rallies they lifted our consciousness up but it feel like this ain t real life and my american skin won t let me win and i m so tired and i ain t tryna scare you but i looked to the sky like grandmama i think i failed you  all i want all i need i just want the truth i just want the truth all i want all i need is to focus on you is to focus on you all i want and we thought we could be taken serious be all we could be a rifle and a gi bill army first to desegregate could stand with your countrymen brothers in arms cause you got no qualms we equal rights is that napalm and the marine corps landed them poor black men out in berlin and they couldn t help but notice the striking resemblance between these jewish ghettos and the one in they own chicago how a man posed to gun tote for a country that don t let him vote or take down a dictator doing the same thing his own potus do that riddle alone would ruin your psyche too and that nitro tricycling it got him biting five vicodins it s a shame the cold war vets ain t get no ticker tape parades maybe that s why they alcoholic maybe that s why he womanizing maybe i can forgive my dad for all the years he kept lying all i want all i need i just want the truth i just want the truth all i want all i need is to focus on you is to focus on you all i want let me tell you what you ain t try you ain t try taking into consideration that even if change came you d still be the same jason lame jason still struggling with patience and collecting objects and projects and protests you ain t try you ain t try listening history a proven track record no evil has ever gone unpunished and kingdoms come and go and thrones get thrown to oblivion and i am not at all shook in any way by satan and you ain t try realizing what you are really running from and what you are really fighting for it s a frightening indictment that even if all these world problems are solved it still wouldn t resolve what you are actually looking for and it s not like these problems they don t need to be addressed but fixing systemic issues it ain t the source of your rest or satisfaction and i know it s your life s work but the work of a man s hands it has never quenched his thirst you say i m king of kings but son i don t get it how you could trust me for eternity but can t trust me for now hoping in a broken system to fix what s broken in us it s not working is it 1
