Lockdown Lyrics – Anderson .Paak
Singer: Anderson .Paak
Title: Lockdown
You should’ve been downtown
Ayy
The people are risin’
Yeah
We thought it was a lockdown
What
They opened the fire
D**n
Them bullets was flyin’
Ooh
Who said it was a lockdown godd**n lie
Oh my time heals all but you outta time now
Now
Judge gotta watch us from the clock tower
True
Lil’ tear gas cleared the whole place out
I’ll be back with the hazmat for the next round
We was tryin’ to protest then the fires broke out
Look out for the secret agents they be planted in the crowd
Said “It’s civil unrest” but you sleep so sound
Like you don’t hear the screams when we catchin’ beatdowns
Stayin’ quiet when they killin’ n***as but you speak loud
When we ride got opinions comin’ from a place of priv’
Sicker than the COVID how they did him on the ground
Speakin’ of the COVID is it still goin’ around
Oh won’t you tell me ’bout the lootin’ what’s that really all about
‘Cause they throw away black lives like paper towels
Plus unemployment rate what forty million now
Killed a man in broad day might never see a trial
We just wanna break chains like slaves in the South
Started in the North End but we in the downtown
Riot cops try to block now we gotta show down
Citizens of Los Angeles
D**n
I hereby declare this to be an unlawful assembly
And in the name of the people of the State of California
You should’ve been downtown
The people are risin’
Right here
We thought it was a lockdown
They opened the fire
Them bullets was flyin’
Lockdown
Who said it was a lockdown godd**n lie
We ain’t gotta stop ’cause they tell us to
And downtown where I got popped with the rubber bullet
Tre pound got it in my name now I’ma shoot it
Never understand why they do it
Someone cut the channel off the news ‘fore I loose it
Lah
I ain’t even trippin’ if you wit’ it then we lootin’
Nah
Help me put this Louis in the back of Suzuki
Ooh o-he
Had to break it down so smoothly
Slow
They gon’ say “It’s not about race” but we movin’ ho pow
Okay
Got the tre pound had to put in my name
Wish a n***a play now
Yeah
Any given day I’ll be headed to the pulpits
Yeah
Say a lil’ prayer matter fact I need two of ’em
Ooh
Only do it only do it
Ooh
This ain’t ’92 so we learn the new rules
N***a got hip so we don’t loot the projects
‘Bout to hit Rodeo with my lil’ cousin Marcus
Someone threw a whole brick in the Neiman Marcus
Ah
Help me put the whole mannequin in the Charger
You should’ve been downtown
Down
The people are risin’
Look around
We thought it was a lockdown
Lockdown
They opened the fire
Had to get low fire
Them bullets was flyin’
Down down
Who said it was a lockdown godd**n lie
Ooh-wee
Lockdown we ain’t gotta stop ’cause they tell us to
And downtown where I got popped with the rubber bullet
Tre pound
Uh got it in my name now I’ma shoot it
Lockdown we ain’t gotta stop ’cause they tell us to
And downtown
