We're Both Wrong - Termanology, Saigon

How could we have respect for you?

Look what we subjected to

Supposed to serve and protect

You acting all unprofessional

Restraining a man is not grabbing him by his testicles

Sucker getting a gun and a badge and get disrespectful

I’ll tell you why this shit is so stressful

'cause we been going through it since we came to America

On a vessel

Pick up a social studies book every time that they mention us

They was even enslaving us, trading us or was lynching us

So what’s the big difference?

Whether it’s a rope or a scope, the objective is to go out and hit niggas

Speaking this from the heart

I been doing the knowledge

We’re seeing that slavery was never truly abolished

They making uzis with dollars they can use for the colleges

What is this?

This is the movement of tricknologists

The only thing we’re doing wrong is not fighting back

You ain’t got the light to rap but you know what’s right and exact, jack

How the hell am I wrong?

When your people been doing my people wrong for so long

Now all we got is the hope and the focus to hold on

Y’all been killing us for so long, it can’t go on

How we both wrong?

If they shoot at us, they probably get awarded

If we shoot at them, they popping us when they spot us

It’s harder to live life, more conscious and like marauders

And focus on the problem of who could fix it in office

Then picking up a bottle, a bitch, and a couple garcia’s

And heading to the crib, to kick it and get some knowledge

Do we want knowledge?

And bread for our toddlers?

Saved in accounts or more belts and wallets

And me I’m part of the problem, purchasing gucci products

Before, I put away that money for my daughters collage

And still a great father but times are getting harder

No money for private school, I guess should go harder

Tryna lock in in stability, cuz of my family history

All of them died broke, so I’m tryna be the remedy

Our ghetto kids never inherit no stocks and bonds

That’s something to think about

When you putting them Jordan’s on

How the hell am I wrong?

When your people been doing my people wrong for so long

Now all we got is the hope and the focus to hold on

Y’all been killing us for so long, it can’t go on

How we both wrong?, damn
