You Ain’t Bleed With Us #soundseasons

((My attempt at a Tupac vibe using a high pitch dreamy booth)) 🎤 You Ain’t Bleed With Us By Boom Boom Intro You walked in with rhymes… But we was busy digging graves. And you never asked who we lost. Just handed us hope, like that ever paid the rent. Verse 1 You showed up with poems, said hope was enough, But we bury kids on Tuesdays, hope don’t show up. You called pain “beautiful,” we call it survival, Where trauma ain’t a metaphor, it’s tribal. You rhyme like grief’s a game to play, Like hugs and dreams keep demons away. But we was lighting candles when you wrote your bars, We was scrubbing blood off project walls and cars. Hook You ain’t bleed with us, Ain’t prayed on porches when the heat hit us. You ain’t lit no candles for the ones we miss, So why you out here tryna fix what you ain’t lived? You ain’t bleed with us, Don’t perform like you can lead with us. You got pen and passion, cool, now hush, ‘Cause some things don’t rhyme, and some wounds don’t rush. Verse 2 You said “stay positive,” we said “stay safe,” You said “just believe,” we said “don’t catch strays.” You rhyme like this struggle got a beat, But we rhyme from hunger, not art-school heat. You ever had to sell your coat for food? Ever seen your mom get hit in front of you? Ever watched a friend turn ghost in the street While the system just tweets and the cops retreat? You ain’t us. And we know. We hear it in your flow. Hook (Repeat) You ain’t bleed with us, Ain’t prayed on porches when the heat hit us. You ain’t lit no candles for the ones we miss, So why you out here tryna fix what you ain’t lived? You ain’t bleed with us, Don’t perform like you can lead with us. You got pen and passion, cool, now hush, ‘Cause some things don’t rhyme, and some wounds don’t rush. Bridge We ain’t need a savior. We needed a witness. Not someone to rewrite our pain into their lyrics… …but someone who sits in the silence, and listens. Final Verse So before you drop another verse, Ask yourself, did you earn this hurt? Did you walk these blocks or just read about them? Did you cry with us, or write around them? You got a voice. That’s good. But don’t talk over us. Talk with us. Final Hook You ain’t bleed with us, So why you act like you can speak for us? Outro Some things you can’t learn in a cipher. Some things you only earn… by surviving.
