They wrote me out of all accounts whethering shouldering small amounts till I called em out I’m what this story is all about. My arrival wasn’t willingly nah but that’s chillingly the truth No I fear for shots from cops killing me They on the hunt for the blood And we the auxiliary The black power and love I’m all the above above We find peace in the culture I’m responsible to save And every piece of the puzzle Every article, the page I’m at peace in the struggle I’m awake and not afraid While I’m channeling my energy From particle to wave The peace like Mandela seated on robbin Island Wise like a prophet arriving from the highlands Look I’m not here for any kinda problem Keep me out of your gossip column thank you I’m calm and tranquil At the time and place too i shine Word to God, Im divine, and graceful the grind could break you if you concentrate You could find your faith With a highest conscious takes you That’s peace Say peace we don’t really want no trouble Tell me is you down with the struggle All they really wanna do is cuff you they don’t love you Say peace we don’t really want no trouble Tell me is you down with the struggle All they really wanna do is cuff you they don’t love you Your loss You gotta walk on the right path Big life Liberty straight up Man kind Sing song Tell me what your fighting for x4 #Common #ABeautifulRevolution #SayPeace #AGRojas Music video by Common performing Say Peace. © 2020 Common., Under exclusive license to Loma Vista Recordings.
