Shades Of Blue [explicit] Lyrics - There's Alot Going On [explicit] - Vic Mensa

Color of morning pee coming out of the sink 

It's 2016 who would think 

Kids in America don't have clean water to drink 

Like they cut the EBT, took 'em off of the link 

I read a story about a woman with her daughter in Flint 

She got lead poisoning from showers in the morning 

When the governor switched out the pipes to bring the water in 

To the city river cause he said they can't afford to get clean water 

So now the poor people get the shorter end 

Of the stick, ain't that some bullshit? 

Shorty thirsty, he just bought his fourth fifth 

It's lead in the water gun, he dying from a full clip 

Now you've got toddlers drinking toxic waste 

While the people responsible still ain't caught no case 

I don't get it man, I just ain't wit it man 

They got Damn Daniel distracting you on Instagram 

Back again with the all-white media coverage 

They do it over and over like remedial subjects 

The people with the least always gotta pay the most 

We the first to go when they deleting them budgets 

Can a nigga get his basic human rights? 

Is that too much to ask, should I say it more polite? 

And everybody broke so we in the same boat 

But would they let that bitch sink if we was white? 

It got me shades of blue

Rain or shine, it's all blue, it's all blue 

Ain't no sun, it's all blue, it's all blue 

Purple haze, in a daze, it's all blue, it's all blue 

Change gon' come, it's all you, it's all on you 

It's all blue, all blue 

It's all blue, all blue 

The skies stay gray, around my way, around my way 

Waking up to the morning sun in Detroit 

I'll be with the people when they come for the boy 

Everybody tryna be American Idols 

My X-Factor is I'm the only one with The Voice 

It's bigger than us, these kids listen to us 

That's why I give 'em that truth cause they don't get it enough 

We making bitches and hoes out our women too much 

We can't trust ourselves, and we don't know who to trust 

It ain't enough for police to wear body cams 

Cause niggas still gettin tazed and body slammed 

And cigarettes'll kill you on their own but they'll kill you for a cigarette, I honor Eric Garner fam' 

I'm a part of him, he a part of me 

I'm a prodigy in these Prada jeans 

I'm tryna' make my partners a part of the election 

So you ain't gotta presidential pardon me 

And pardon me, but why is it that the darker must suffer? 

How do we protect the culture from the vultures? 

There's a Cold War every summer in the Chi 

It's a snowball effect from the Cold War in Russia 

But Vladimir Putin ain't in the hood recruitin' 

And Derrick Rose ain't the only one out here shootin' 

They set fire to their own squad cars 

And a bitch on the news gon' blame it on the lootin' 

Now here I am talking 'bout a revolution 

And I can't even spare a dollar to the movement 

But I'm in the strip club spending dollars on that movement 

I guess we all got room for improvement

Rain or shine, it's all blue, it's all blue 

Ain't no sun, it's all blue, it's all blue 

Purple haze, in a daze, it's all blue, it's all blue 

Change gon' come, it's all you, it's all on you 

It's all blue, all blue 

It's all blue, all blue 

The skies stay gray, around my way, around my way
