Bun B & Trae Tha Truth This World

Today marks one year since the tragic death of George Floyd in Minneapolis which kicked off the protests of summer 2020. To honour his memory and the Black Lives Matter movement, Bun B and Trae Tha Truth, have shared a new record titled, “This World.” The song features Big K.R.I.T and Raheem DeVaughn with production being handled by Cory Mo and Zaytoven. The music video for the track shows footage from last year’s protests.

“Floyd’s impact definitely is set in stone in Houston,” Trae Tha Truth told HNHH about George Floyd in March. “You know, our relationship wasn’t music-based. Our relationship was — that was my partner, you know what I’m saying? As far as what we do in the community and stuff I have going on, he’d always be there.”

Lyrics

[Intro]
Cory Mo
Zaytoven

[Chorus: Raheem DeVaughn]
I’ve seen joy and pain in this world (This world)
I’m just tryin’ to remain in this world (This world)
I even pray to God for change in this world
I’ve seen some troubled times in this world
‘Cause my Black life matters in this world (This world, this world, this world)
‘Til we’re equal in this world
Power to the people in this world (This world, this world)

[Verse 1: Bun B]
Man, it’s 2020, who would have thought
That the fight for basic civil rights was still left to be fought
Even after we lost Huey, Hampton, Martin and Malcolm
To racist elite power structures whiter than talcum?
See, they’ve been treatin’ my people like they ain’t equal
Since the slave ships and now we livin’ in a sequel
Talkin’ ’bout ’em lynchin’ us, burnin’ us and killin’ us
For 400 years, and man, they still ain’t feelin’ us!
