flatlines - lxve mxtt lyrics

[chorus]
black lives, turned into flatlines;
history repeating once again
white crimes, under these street lights;
how many souls must fade before it ends?

[verse 1]
i know a hashtag will never bring a dad back;
another soul getting stashed in a black bag
but it helps to spread the truth that the force;
that is sworn to protect, own laws they neglect
black prejudice eclipsing black excellence;
are we progressive with a racist for a president?
it’s a f*cked up system in which we’re living in;
vilifying minorities, trans, g*ys, and immigrants

a white male stopped i wonder what the difference is?
a black suspect’s guilty till proven innocent
rest in peace to brionna, rest in peace to treyvon martin;
merely seen as targets crossed off by the police department
tearing down the statues of slavers, that aren’t worthy of celebration;
if you’re against it then you’re a racist
we need to educate and try to relate;
the only way to drive a positive change

[chorus]
black lives, turned into flatlines;
history repeating once again
white crimes, under these street lights;
how many souls must fade before it ends?
[verse 2]
talk race and white people getting uncomfortable;
won’t acknowledge the privilege we’re accustomed to
implicit bias is inherently prevalent;
yeah, the prejudice evident in these western developments
all lives matter, yeah we know that’s a fact;
but at the moment yeah the focus is on people that black
we need to instigate these changes through meaningful conversations;
to wash the indoctrination that we’ve had from the past

[chorus]
black lives, turned into flatlines;
history repeating once again

white crimes, under these street lights;
how many souls must fade before it ends?
