The Other Foot

(Chorus)

🎶Lace up your kicks. Watch the speed on another’s foot🎶

🎶Look at that. Now the shoe is on the other foot🎶

🎶Piece together the agenda. No it ain’t hard🎶

🎶Now who’s the victim screaming bloody murder race card🎶

🎶Can the suspect get off with his face card🎶

🎶Is the jury gonna play hard? Making his day hard🎶

🎶We’ll have to wait and see as the gavel comes to hit him🎶

🎶Eyes around the world locked in on the system🎶

(Verse 1)

🎶What have we here? Front page news has been made🎶

🎶One dead after kids in Black and White run the fade🎶

🎶Somebody took an L and walked away🎶

🎶Wasn’t enough for the lighter flesh who went from a talk to play🎶

🎶One of these young cats broke another fight out🎶

🎶Threatening the young brother who had to pull a knife out🎶

🎶Should’ve took heed. Let it go and walked right out🎶

🎶But he didn’t. Now he ended up with his lights out.🎶

🎶Now the whole world knows and everyone’s been wowed🎶

🎶Impatiently waiting for the other young kid’s trial🎶

🎶What started off as a fight during a day of sports🎶

🎶Now begs the question will this young man get his day in court🎶

(Chorus)

🎶Lace up your kicks. Watch the speed on another’s foot🎶

🎶Look at that. Now the shoe is on the other foot🎶

🎶Piece together the agenda. No it ain’t hard🎶

🎶Now who’s the victim screaming bloody murder race card🎶

🎶Can the suspect get off with his face card🎶

🎶Is the jury gonna play hard? Making his day hard🎶

🎶We’ll have to wait and see as the gavel comes to hit him🎶

🎶Eyes around the world locked in on the system🎶

(Verse 2)

🎶It’s a race against time. Pun intended, that’s right🎶

🎶A deadly outcome of a fight. One black and one white🎶

🎶Karmelo said he killed Austin while defending himself🎶

🎶Now people are hoping that he puts an end to himself🎶

🎶They say he didn’t need a knife. Hypocrisy’s begun🎶

🎶This ain’t what they said when George Zimmerman had a gun🎶

🎶If you’re white you can stand your ground🎶

🎶If you’re black they want you get hit, turn your cheek and stand down🎶

🎶White fight is white flight. Black fight is black night🎶

🎶Only blacks get told to get abused but still act right🎶

🎶Oh how America believes and loves its own lies🎶

🎶If their races were swapped they’d say he was justified🎶

🎶Nevertheless I really hope they feel anger🎶

🎶Like how blacks feel when we get punished for defending ourselves against danger🎶

🎶They love to say what we should do, but there’s only a lot of talk in it🎶

🎶The injustice shoe is on the other foot. Hope you can walk in it🎶

(Chorus)

🎶Lace up your kicks. Watch the speed on another’s foot🎶

🎶Look at that. Now the shoe is on the other foot🎶

🎶Piece together the agenda. No it ain’t hard🎶

🎶Now who’s the victim screaming bloody murder race card🎶

🎶Can the suspect get off with his face card🎶

🎶Is the jury gonna play hard? Making his day hard🎶

🎶We’ll have to wait and see as the gavel comes to hit him🎶

🎶Eyes around the world locked in on the system🎶
