Scars from the Past - X-Empire

There’s a storm brewing up in here

Can u feel it

Yo

This world aint right no more

It’s changed

Cops killing Blacks

This world is getting wack

Homeless men on crack

With Isis about to attack

This world is so not right

We need to take a stand

We need to put up a fight

Let’s go back to MLK

R.I.P but we need you today

We need to see what see

And remember your dream

And police need to realize

That everyone is free

We come in the place

We got guns in our face

And we being questioned

Just because of our race

Why cant you leave us alone

Don’t we got our rights

Just walking with the boys

But y’all still flash the lights

Like a good man

We gon stop

But 9 times out of 10

We still get shot

Cause that ain’t right

That ain’t right

If I had to chose

To fight or to love

Would it all be so simple

Would my love be enough

When plans you have failed

And it all starts to fall

All they see is how you wearing the scars from it all

(Can u wear the scars from it all)

Now can we get a moment of peace

For the people

That have died because of cop violence

Now let it be lifted

This world will be right

Once again

If we keep our peace

The people finna win

We the ones

We control everything

If we believe

We can do anything

Now the police think

That we always resort to violence

That’s not true

We need to form an alliance

The world could come together in a moment of silence

If I had to chose

To fight or to love

Would it all be so simple

Would my love be enough

When plans you have failed

And it all starts to fall

All they see is how you wearing the scars from it all

(Can you wear the scars from it all)

Now we all got the our scars from when we were kids

People that pushed us around

Told us that we couldnt do nothing

But we got back up

We never gave up

We couldnt back down

Especially not now

Ain’t no need to kill

We need to save

It’s 2015 we don’t need any slaves

We’re all ready for change

And it needs to happen soon

We need to save the people

Before the whole world goes boom

We need to end the fires

So the flowers can bloom

Soon enough there’s gonna be a place

For me and for you

We gonna make it happen

Just don’t give up

There’s gonna be a world

Where the police ain’t corrupt

But everyone needs to join

We need to be united

There needs to be a world

Where no one is fighting

At no point in time

Should a kid have to be hiding

So be who you are

Be who you want

And don’t let anyone tell you to stop

Cause that makes me mad

In the new world aint nobody gonna be sad

If I had to chose

To fight or to love

Would it all be so simple

Would my love be enough

When plans you have failed

And it all starts to fall

All they see is how you wearing the scars from it all

If I had to chose

To fight or to love

Would it all be so simple

Would my love be enough

When plans you have failed

And it all starts to fall

All they see is how you wearing the scars from it all

(Can you wear the scars from it all)

Now let’s all remember the people that have died or been killed by cops

R.I.P to all

From RQB

Yea

Yea
