Derrick Lovell Hands Up Lyrics
Hands Up by Derrick Lovell
I remember growin up
That my momma used to tell me
Don't bring home a white girl
I just take it she was bitter
Being a babysitter
Of a black man living in a white world
And my pops told me
That it is what it is
And that's what it's gone be
The same slaves that came riding the waves
Just a father of the slaves that's chained by police
My reality
That should never represent a immigrants mentality
Or a slave mentality
Man I got the truth in me
I'm just trying to get it out of me
Yeah every time the cops yell freeze
Kids home alone too watching home alone 3
And all this racism make it hard to believe
That we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Hands up don't shoot
I just want to roll they just want to shoot shoot
A couple loose words and it all goes loose
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Hands up don't shoot
I pull out a card they pull out a deuce deuce
Couple loose words and it all goes loose
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Welcome to America the land of deceit and the home of the shade
We gone smack the devils in the face
Put the demons in their place if they tryna catch a fade
Yeah we in a race war
Ain't nothing new it's just all in our face more
We commissioned on a mission to embrace more
The politicians in position to erase more
I got a feeling when the cops get tho killin
That we're on the wrong side of the war
Cause we don't know nothin
About all the discussions that have
When they're on the other side of the door
Talk about it
My spidey senses going off
Now that I'm in position opposition looking soft
Mask off homie we can see it all you frontin
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Hands up don't shoot
I just want to roll they just want to shoot shoot
A couple loose words and it all goes loose
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Hands up don't shoot
I pull out a card they pull out a deuce deuce
Couple loose words and it all goes loose
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Hands up
Hands up
Get them hands high I say get them hands high aye
Hands up
Hands up
Wave em side to side I say move em side aye
Hands up
Hands up
Get them hands high I say get them hands high aye
Hands up
Hands up
Wave em side to side I say move em side aye
Hands up don't shoot
I just want to roll they just want to shoot shoot
A couple loose words and it all goes loose
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
Hands up don't shoot
I pull out a card they pull out a deuce deuce
Couple loose words and it all goes loose
And we ain't did nothin naw we ain't did nothin
