Nightmares Lyrics - Damez

[Intro: Nina Simone] 

I'll tell you what freedom is to me, no fear 

I mean really, no fear 

[Quin Price] 

Nightmares 

Nightmares like a motherfucker 

Why, Lord? 

[Verse 1: Quin Price] 

I seen it with my own eyes (own eyes) 

While his mama cried, that was her only son 

And she called to God (she called to God) 

Why'd you take him from me? 

Why'd you take him from me? I ain't surprised 

Another black man killed by a black man with another gun but 

I guess sums up every homicide 

Every drive-by, every bullet fired, everybody dies 

I don't know if you'll realize when you symbolize 

Whether you GD or blood or cuz (what's crackin', cuh?) 

But because, they don't give a fuck 'bout me 

They don't give a fuck 'bout you 

They don't give a fuck 'bout love 

They don't give a fuck 'bout we 

They don't give a fuck 'bout us 

They don't give a fuck 'bout none of that shit 

Just to run in yo shit and they'll rewind and do it again 

Because niggas don't have no conscious and 

I promise tomorrow ain't promised and 

You don't really want no problems when 

He riding downtown with his patnas and 

A chopper on the backseat, got damn 

Make me think why all they mind boxed in 

Make me wanna think 'bout Martin 

And mark my words like Mountain Luther King had a dream 

I'll move mountains 

And I pray to God that my people don't try to take my life 

But if you want all my shine I promise I'll give you the light 

I'll give you the light

[Chorus] 

Tell me why it hurts so bad 

I'm trying to save myself from me 

Tomorrow it could be my last 

It's keeping me up in my sleep 

Tell me why it hurts so bad (so bad) 

I'm trying to save myself from me (from me) 

Tomorrow it could be my last (my last) 

It's keeping me up in my sleep 

[Verse 2: Damez and (Quin Price)] 

I heard it with my own ears 

Your brother got shot and my whole world stopped 

It was the only fear 

That my mama had when she was so glad 

Just to send her son off to college 

A black man trying to seek knowledge 

A black man trying to make a profit 

A black man trying to be something other than 

Just another nigga standing on the block 

Hustling with his homies and they working 'round the clock 

Pantry getting empty and the trap getting hot 

Hit you for yo last just so they can restock 

Murk you with the Glock, murder for a rock 

Look you in yo eyes right before he cock 

Back the 17, all this for a cop 

Niggas go to school and they still get shot, fuck it 

(I guess you're a product of your environment) 

(I guess shit round here violent) 

I guess when you hear that chopper singing 

Yo mama screaming, play the violin 

But they just want us to be silent 

Being black is just too vibrant 

(Black on black crime put us back nine-) 

(Years of full of sweat and blood and tears) 

(So can you please just remind me?)

[Chorus] (x2) 

Tell me why it hurts so bad 

I'm trying to save myself from me 

Tomorrow it could be my last 

It's keeping me up in my sleep 

Tell me why it hurts so bad (so bad) 

I'm trying to save myself from me (from me) 

Tomorrow it could be my last (my last) 

It's keeping me up in my sleep 

[Outro] 

Rest in peace to Ryan and all the other fallen soldiers out there 

We love you and we miss you
