Why?
king swag Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
We don't police policing with a heavy hand or a militarized bend
You know
We want them to be fair
We want them to have integrity , and We want justice, justice justice
Swag A’int Free
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why
Hands up we get shot
Hands down we get shot
Walk away from the cops
But we still get shot
When the body just drops
The story gotta stop
This violence getting old
The story oh no
Rodney got beat
Gardner lifted off his feet
Selling cigarettes man
Or buying ice Tea
This killing gotta stop
You ain't hear it from me
You already know
That the swag aint free
Man you driving fast you know they Bring you in
Sandra Blamd never got seen again
What’s worse death or dry rotting in The pen
Systemic rasism wins again oh no
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why
Rest in Peace to Emmit Till
That liar got him killled
The casket was open
The parents keep it real
Like Phil Castile he was shot and Killed
He was brutally slaughtered
Right in front his daughter
And the NRA outta, do something But they not why
He the wrong color
Why, why why why
Laws Justifiy murder
Working on the fields
What that really taught us
The displacement was real
Stripped of our families
Couldn’t read man we might get Killed
Knowledge is power no reparations
The 13th admenment keeps us on The plantation
Paraloe and probation
I aint just waiting
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why
One day a change
But I’m still waiting
Killed MLK
Tell me why
Black kings just man dead on the Pavement
Malcom x
Huey newton just assassinated
Want to pacify our voice
It’s getting too loud
But they killing people churches, Schools, in the crowd
But we the thugs
Did I get that right oh no
Reach for our wallet
Then we get shoot on sight
Bezy Holmes
I dont why brothers gotta die
I dont why mothers gotta cry
I dont why sisters gotta die
I dont know why fathers got cry
I dont know why but we got try
Too many innocent children died
Jail is full and we all know why
The system is broken
Lets stop getting slaughtered
Why we gotta die for our rights
Why we gotta die all the time
I need to know
Mike brown dont shoot
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why why why why
Why why it feels this way
We gotta pray
Tell me why
Don’t shoot my son
Don’t shoot my daughter
Prayer goes out to all the families
Everyone effected by violence
The song "Why?" by King Swag is a powerful and emotional commentary on police brutality, systemic racism, and the cycle of violence that plagues many communities. The lyrics express the frustration, anger, and sadness that many people feel in the face of ongoing injustice and oppression. The opening lines call for constitutional policing that is fair, just, and respectful of human rights. The repeated refrain of "Tell me why" speaks to the deep sense of confusion and disbelief that many people experience when faced with senseless violence and tragedy.
The song references several high-profile cases of police brutality and racial profiling, including the deaths of Emmett Till, Philando Castile, Sandra Bland, and Mike Brown. The lyrics also touch on the broader impacts of systemic racism, including the legacy of slavery and the ongoing struggles for justice and reparations. Despite the heavy themes and difficult subject matter, the song ends on a hopeful note, with a call for change and a prayer for all those affected by violence.
Overall, "Why?" is a moving and poignant song that speaks to the ongoing struggles for racial justice and equality in the United States and beyond.
