Fires of Justice

[Verse 1] I came up where the paint peel Where the hallway talk real My mama kept the rent due I kept my word steel Black boots, red clay White shirt, hard day They tried to box my name in I burned that plan away Old judge face, cold plate New case, same hate I seen the lies fold fast When the truth don’t wait Now they act brave on the screen But they fold face to face I move calm, coat sharp Like I’m cut from the chase [Pre-Chorus] Hear that hum in the room That’s the pressure in my chest You can point at the spark But you can’t cuff what I built [Chorus] Fires of justice Burn, burn, burn Fires of justice Watch the tables turn Fires of justice Say my name, say it right Fires of justice We don’t sleep tonight [Verse 2] Gold tooth grin, chain swing Came through with a clean sting Backseat full of receipts And a little bit of everything They sold fear by the pound I sold proof by the round Found a voice in the furnace Now the whole block sound Cops on the curb, lights flash Old wounds, new ash I don’t chase no crown I just make the frauds crash Bulletproof mind, soft hands Hard truth, lost fans If you built on a lie That house don’t stand [Pre-Chorus] Hear that hum in the room That’s the pressure in my chest You can point at the spark But you can’t cuff what I built [Chorus] Fires of justice Burn, burn, burn Fires of justice Watch the tables turn Fires of justice Say my name, say it right Fires of justice We don’t sleep tonight [Bridge] No more bowing my head No more kissing the ring I watched the weak get loud Then the weak had to sing From the ash, from the smoke I can see where it ends What they buried in dark Comes back up again [Chorus] Fires of justice Burn, burn, burn Fires of justice Watch the tables turn Fires of justice Say my name, say it right Fires of justice We don’t sleep tonight
