Slavery might've ended in 1863

But you ain't seen the way people had to be

Late nights, 5 jobs, just to pay rent

Makes you wonder where our sense went.


Slavery might've ended in 1863

But you ain't seen the way people had to be

Behind bars, long time

Cuz they ain't got enough to pay the bails dime


Slavery might've ended in 1863

But you ain't seen the way people have to be

Gunned down in the streets by cops

Lucky to live as long as they Pops

People in the streets, protesting

Woman tired of Trumps molesting

Black people tired of racism

Environmentalists tired of anthropocentrism

So yes, slavery might've ended in 1863

But nobody really free
