Vince Staples - Hands Up Lyrics

(Verse)
North Division tryna stop my blackness
I'm watching for them badges when out in traffic
Them 9-11's been a tad bit frantic
If lights start flashing, please don't panic
The DA giving out gang enhancements
Can barely even hang to build a case off cameras
CCAT tracking criminal patterns
Tricking niggas into taking strikes to get out faster
Freedom bribery nigga, cuz we hardly acquit
Social media that leave the flash photography snitching
Blame geography nigga, for the pride in these niggas
Take ya when they fingerprint ya, now ya part of the system
This was all apart of Huey P. and Bobby prediction
Making profit off of violence, they arousing attention
Leaders rising lead to twenty-five to life in the prison
Betta watch it cuz I know they got a spot for ya nigga

(Hook x2)
Yeah, put yo hands in the air
Put yo hands in the air
Put yo hands in the air
Nigga freeze, put yo hands in the air

(Verse 2)
Deangelo Lopez and Tyler Woods
Just a couple they gunned down around the hood
I guess the pigs split wigs for the greater good
Cuz I ain't seen them lock a swine up yet
At the most they reassign 'em to prevent protest
Just yo color is enough to get ya under arrest
Strong hand to the law got me feeling oppressed
If ya flipping, kill a fifty, then ya get in a chair
Paying taxes for some fucking clowns to ride around
Whooping niggas asses, scared to man up
Handcuffs giving niggas gashes on the wrist
I used to lift my fist to fight the power with
Older homie told me in his day the pigs was planting bricks
In the trunks of nigga's Chevrolets them traffic stops and shit
Raiding homes without a warrant
Shoot him first without a warning
And they expect respect and non-violence
I refuse the right to be silent

(Hook x2)
Yeah, put yo hands in the air
Put yo hands in the air
Put yo hands in the air
Nigga freeze, put yo hands in the air

(Bridge x2)
LBPD, no they ain't bout shit
LAPD, no they ain't bout shit
LASD, no they ain't bout shit
Riding 'round these streets giving out full clips

(Hook x2)
Yeah, put yo hands in the air
Put yo hands in the air
Put yo hands in the air
Nigga freeze, put yo hands in the air
