about

The first single off my upcoming album about police brutality and the fucked inhabitants/leaders of America.
I'm Buying a Gun is a personal song - for everyone who can relate, about the increase in the amount of police and racist encounters I have had since Trump took office, and especially since the BLM protests began.
If all these crazy maffakkkas with guns boutta be out here makin life unsafe for us, maybe it's time to buy a gun.

lyrics

I've got my life in the backseat
I've got the wheel in my hand
I've got a cop right behind me
He's got a thought and a plan
I put my hand on the shifter
He puts his hand on the gun
Goes home and takes his hate for niggers
Out on his wife and son

I'm buying a gun
Cuz he has one
Yeah, I'm buying a gun
Cuz he has one

To the people who say no abortion
But say nothing about the cause
Just wait till one of your little racist children
Goes and gets his head blown off
If you're shooting black
We're shooting back
If you're shooting black
We're shooting back

Gotta do somethin' cuz you're doin' nothin
Sittin back
We're taking the power you had
Making it black

Gotta do somethin' cuz you're doin' nothin
Sittin back
We're taking the power you had
Making it black
