Dead
Kway Lyrics

Ooo
Vocalization expressing a feeling of confidence or satisfaction

I’m in my new bag my bad
I am doing well and achieving success

Why you mad? Thought you knew that my bad
I am succeeding despite other people's doubts or negativity

I’m from a city where they run up on you Screaming gang, gang, gang gunning for you
I come from a dangerous place where gangs are prevalent and violent confrontation is common

Don’t you snitch you bitch or they coming for you Have you wrapped up like you cooked in foil Like you cooked in foil
If you betray or expose the gang, you will suffer the consequences and be violently punished

Niggas be wanting you dead no we don’t fuck with feds Yeah bro
There are people who want to harm us, and we do not trust or cooperate with law enforcement

They only hate cause we blessed they hanging on by a thread Yeah bro
Those who dislike us are envious of our success and are struggling themselves

History proves your the threat still got the world in a mess Yeah bro
Throughout history, black people have been seen as a threat and continue to face injustice and discrimination

Racist motherfuckers we want you dead dead dead dead Yeah bro
We reject racism and wish for those who hold such beliefs to no longer exist

Back back on the cruddiest Jay Rock want the bloodiest J Strizzy wid a cruddy hit Kway Kway 'bout to duppy this
Returning to gritty, raw music with intense lyrics and powerful delivery

Been on the backroads, backroads Short cutting it back home, back home They fear when they see me Feeling uneasy They don’t have backbones backbones
Traveling through rough areas and encountering people who are intimidated by me, despite their lack of conviction and integrity

I get it I’m black Move on my ones and I’m under attack Move in a group and I’m under abuse Your mistaken confused Why the cuffs on my back?
I am targeted and oppressed simply because of my skin color, no matter if I am alone or with others

Bun it, bun it Now I’m bout to run it Bout to keep it two virgils & give 'em something They won’t see it coming like they think I’m bluffing Bout to play all my cards it’s all or nothing
Rejecting negativity and embracing confidence and risk-taking, surprising listeners with unexpected creativity and intensity

Yeah we up and coming Up and coming yeah we taking shit back So is all my peers Freedom freedom yeah we claiming it back So is all my kids Melanin melanin Calling all blacks Please have no fear, Black lives, black lives, black lives, black Justice is near
Asserting that young black people are the future and will take back power and freedom, calling on all black people to unite and take pride in their heritage, and reassuring that justice will eventually prevail
