LMPD - Little Simz

Mentally enslaved

Mentally deranged

Mental doesn't change

Rental isn't paid

Why do you pretend to live everyday?

We are not the same

Is that all I tell myself to make me feel better?

What have I become?

Have I let my people down?

Let my people down

Have I let my people down yeah?

Have I let my people down yeah?

Have I let my people down?

My people down

Never, never let my people down

Never let my people down

Never let my people down

Never let my people

I'm not half the man Marley was

Still I hear the voice of Garvey calling us

And Luther King's soul is still patiently waiting for his dreams to come true because it feels like the same ting again

Still I fight fire with fire, streets still hot like fire

What's the matter with matter?

Still marching, screaming black lives matter

And so many people trying to be an activist in society

These days what we really need is active spirituality

Cuh Bob done fight already, X done fight already

And Rosa Parks make we flying first class nice and steady

So if you want to fight that fight again then alright, my baby

But after the revolution must come the evolutionaries

Ali deny Vietnam and stand firm, real and strong

Today our fight is to activate all the pineal glands

Of the youts in the streets weh nuh eat from morning

Provide them with a meal or something

Wah mek them feel what me feel

When mi see Jah Jah open the seal and me know me never

Let my people down

Mentally deranged

Mental doesn't change

Rental isn't paid

Why do you pretend to live every day?

We are not the same

Is that all I tell myself to make me feel better?

What have I become?

I'm not half the woman Maya was

Still I hear the voice of Nina here guiding us

We're running out of legends

I know they look from the heavens down on me

I can't let them down

The people that are meant to be protecting us are killing us

The people that are meant to be protecting us are killing us

Anxiety and adrenaline, I know you feel the rush

Do you hear me now?

Never let my people down

Never, never let my people down

No, no

You say

Never let my people down

Never let my people down

Never let my people
