Usher - Chains lyrics
rate mefeat. Nas & Bibi Bourelly
(Intro)
With liberty and justice for all
Justice for all?
(Verse)
I'ma get mine, you should get yours too
Shootin, shootin, shootin, man dem boys always shoot
(American dream, American man too)
Shootin, shootin, shootin, man dem boys always shoot
(And I-I-I-I been so tired of bein insecure
So tired of)
I've had enough runnin
Runnin, and runnin and runnin and runnin
(Runnin)
Runnig, and runnin and runnin and runnin and
(Running enough)
Just give it up
I don't give a fuck
I've had enough
Y'all give a fuck? No
Light it on fire
I've had enough
Runnin, and runnin and runnin and runnin x 2
(Hook)
You act like the change
Tryna throw me in chains
Don't act like you savin us
It's still the same
Man don't act like I made it up
You blamin us
Let's keep it one hundred
You gave the name to us
Nigga
We still in chains x 8
You put the shame on us
(Post-Hook)
Now, now, now shame on us
Now
Now, now, now shame on us
Now x 3
(Verse )
Moment of silence
American school and we in church too (Don't shoot)
Shootin, shootin, shootin, we the prey
Always shoot (Prey)
I'ma be trill, you should be trill too
You don't even gotta talk we just shoot
And I feel so tired of bein insecure
Just give it up
Don't give a fuck
Light it on fire
(Verse)
Yeah, yo check
I am Sugar Ray Robinson, Booker T. Washington
W. E. B. Du Bois, I'm the modern one
Yelling at Senators, Presidents, Congressmen
We got a problem that needs some acknowledgement
I am no prison commodity, not just a body you throw in a cell
For any reason, just to bother me
Just for your quota, so it's rest in peace to Sean Bell
Sleep in peace Eric Garner (Sandra)
Every street, every corner
Conspiracy, new world order
I spoke to Tamir Rice mom and she told me "be strong"
It won't be long 'til it's justice
They won't have votes but refuse the discussion
On how certain cops stay shoot us for nothin
Revolution is comin
(Hook)
You act like the change
(The land of opportunity)
Tryna throw me in chains
(The land of Unity)
Don't act like you savin us
(Brotherhood, trust)
It's still the same
(America)
Man don't act like I made it up
You blamin us
(You know)
Let's keep it one hundred
You gave the name to us
Nigga
We still in chains
(Hey so what up my nigga?)
We still in chains x 2
You see these chains?
We still in chains
I can't see
We still in chains
The difference from how we used to be
We still in chains x 2
You put the shame on us
(Post-Hook)
Now, now, now shame on us
Now
Now, now, now shame on us
Now x 3
You put the shame on us)
(Outro)
We still in chains x 8
You put the shame on us
