Always on My Mind

Say you walk alone
Through the rain and the fire
And your spirit is tired
While I sit in my home
And say that I tried
But it's my face I hide
I could never understand
But just know that I stand
Twenty thousand miles
Behind the line
But then I realise
You're always on my mind
Because I let you be
And then I realise
That I'm two steps behind
And that I couldn't see
But then I realise
You're always on my mind
Because I let you be
And then I realise
That I'm two steps behind
And that I couldn't see
One, two, three...
Whips on my back
I still feel them from time ago
Yes this the fact
Things ain't changed, there's so much to go
Black lives matter, yes I'm a real nigger
If you don't believe it
Smoke you out like a cigar
Door to your left, walk on out
We don't need ya
Black-ify the place with our speakers
Jazz up in your ears like a teacher
Rapping out the truths like a preacher
Uh
We ask you once, told you twice
Forced you thrice
Now we ain't being nice
This is thin ice
I'm not accepting the things I can't change
I'm changing the things that I cannot accept
Say you're not alone
Because we're smarter now
And I don't know how
You could forgive all the pain
If I stood in your shoes
I think I wouldn't too
But then I realise
You're always on my mind
Because I let you be
And then I realise
That I'm two steps behind
And that I couldn't see
But then I realise
You're always on my mind
Because I let you be
And then I realise
That I'm two steps behind
And that I couldn't see
But then I realise
You're always on my mind
Because I let you be
And then I realise
That I'm two steps behind
And that I couldn't see
But then I realise
You're always on my mind
Because I let you be
And then I realise
That I'm two steps behind
And that I couldn't see
