Bandokay & Double Lz Blm

Black Lives Matter witnessed a second uprising this year in the wake of George Floyd’s death. Around the same time, news of Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor’s death propelled BLM to catch a second wind in the mainstream media and suddenly, everyone across the world was reflecting on the systemic oppression and anti-Black racism embedded into our society.

All the way in the UK, protests took place in the streets demanding justice and an end to systemic oppression. OFB members Bandokay and Double Lz spoke on this issue on their latest track, “BLM” ft. Abra Cadabra. The song reportedly makes history as it samples Coldplay’s “Trouble” making the three rappers the second to ever get sample clearance from the UK band, according to Voice Online. Coldplay later tweeted the single out, saying that all proceeds from the single will be donated to Broadwater Farm Community Centre and Juvenis.

Lyrics

[Intro: Abra Cadabra]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah

[Chorus: Abra Cadabra, Bandokay]
Black lives matter, they act like they don’t know this (Hey, hey)
Just because we kill off each other don’t give you an excuse to do it too, no, no
Mr. Officer, I can’t breathe ’cause you’ve been pressin’ my neck wit’ your knees, for years now
We’re no different to other generations, growin’ up fightin’, all the segregation
No, we won’t stop ’til we get peace (Bando, haha)

[Verse 1: Bandokay]
The feds keep killing my people, they’re not good peeps, they’re evil (Done out)
And it hurts when they take one of ours, ’til we take one of them, when the gang’s all equal (Ayy)
Black lives matter, we still try kill so I guess it can’t be peaceful (Sad truth)
And free all my guys on the wing, if you’re doin’ life or just got recalled (Ayy)
I just got a call from bro and he just got life, got me feelin’ stressed (Free him)
I told Shivz that your son’s a star, plus God’s with him so your yout is blessed
SJ, my darg, my sho, see him in court, bro tried his best
There’s no evidence on S but twenty-one years got slapped to his chest
Yo, I just want P like Diddy, police on my back cah I look like my Pops (Marky)
Hold up, stop, ’cause of that, why you want me locked?
I seen man get shot and chopped
Got racks on racks, still come to the block (Normal)
The fans saved me and got me hot
Used to answer lines and chop down rocks (Bando)
London City, I’m hittin’ the stage so I guess life really is for me (Yo)
Eighteen, put twenty on jewellery
Surely, I take man’s sis and shorty (Ayy)
Can’t say all cops are naughty but fuck them man, gunshot for porky (Ba-baow)
Walkie-talkie, that shit haunts me, free all my guys, pray for me (Please)

[Chorus: Abra Cadabra, Bandokay, Double Lz]
Black lives matter, they act like they don’t know this, hey (Ayy, ayy), hey
Just because we kill off each other don’t give you an excuse to do it too, no, no (Ba-baow)
Mr. Officer, I can’t breathe ’cause you’ve been pressin’ my neck wit’ your knees, for years now
We’re no different to other generations, growin’ up fightin’, all the segregation
No, we won’t stop ’til we get peace (No, we won’t stop ’til we get peace) (Ayy, ayy)

[Verse 2: Double Lz, Abra Cadabra]
These feds keep preeing cah I’m black, they’ll see you in a group and call you a gang (Oh, no)
No cap, no cap, free Slim Jim, twenty-one in the can (Free bro)
Bro got a bird, put his head in his hands, it is what it is but it wasn’t the plan (It weren’t)
On the other hand, them man chat and do it for the ‘Gram
Feds took S and made it awkward, so I said “Bando, we gotta go forward”
Go all in, got rum pouring, that’s for the ones that are fallen (R.I.P)
When I wake up in the morning, I’m lookin’ at my DMS, fans saying I’m awesome
We’re keepin’ it going, we don’t know about forfeit
Little bros listen whenever I’m talking (It’s love)
Just got a call a bro in jail and he’s tellin’ me “Drop more tunes” (Free him)
I tell him “Real soon”, I can’t refuse, then he said “You already know what to do” (I do)
He said, “Have you seen the news? The boys in blue tryna kill black youts”
No remorse, just execute, they think they’re solid, we can see right through (We can)
I’m out tryna double, not take no L’s
I’m not a guy that flips by their self
Every little helps, we’re coming for the belt
I’m runnin’ on stage, supporters yell
We done excelled
I gotta bypass all the hate in the world (I have to)
We done excelled (Ayy)
I gotta bypass all the hate in the world (Hey)

[Verse 3: Abra Cadabra]
I’ll do for you, if you do for me (I’ll do for you)
May the Lord bless whoever been through it with me (May the Lord bless you)
May the Lord bless whoever been true to me
‘Cause snakes in the grass ain’t new to me
If you say that you love me, then prove to me
Lord knows that I miss my dargs, I miss my dargs, I miss my dargs (Yeah, I miss my dargs)
Pour Henny and drink for my people that ain’t here, that we left in the past (Oh)
If Josh was here, I know he’d say “I don’t want you to ball
I just wanna see you balling” (Yeah)

[Chorus: Abra Cadabra]
Black lives matter, they act like they don’t know this (Hey, ooh, hey)
Just because we kill off each other don’t give you an excuse to do it too, no, no (That don’t give you no excuse)
Mr. Officer, I can’t breathe ’cause you’ve been pressin’ my neck wit’ your knees (I can’t breathe), for years now
We’re no different to other generations, growin’ up fightin’, all the segregation
No, we won’t stop ’til we get peace (I can’t breathe)

[Outro: Abra Cadabra]
NA (Ayy)
