Teyana Taylor：

I got something to say ohhh

You gon' listen today no

Can we talk about the lives being taken

Can we talk about the guns going off and the false accusations

I'm afraid of my own generation can we talk about it

No can we talk can we talk 'bout the blood on the pavement

I bet they gon' be afraid to play this song on rotation

But I'ma talk about it well I'ma talk about it

Baby can we talk about it hey oh no

Jadakiss：

We most certainly can

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk about it

Jadakiss：

And I ain't gon' take too much of your time

Teyana Taylor：

No no

Jadakiss：

Yeah first thing they say is stop killing

But can we talk about the cop killings

Before we talk about the dealing

They acting like blacks ain't got feelings

Knowledge of self is through wisdom

So can we talk about the school system

Young girls raped and knocked up

Will Hillary release that bill locked up

Can we talk about the cost of living

We can talk about guns but we forced to get 'em

It's a new race every time you cross the ribbon

Might've skipped the beat but we never lost the rhythm

You don't understand so you ain't able to feel it

When my momma's in pain I ain't able to heal it

Fatigues and field boots the outer wear

Sponsor what vote for who outta here

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk about the lives being taken

Can we talk about the guns going off and the false accusations

I'm afraid of my own generation can we talk about it

No can we talk can we talk 'bout the blood on the pavement

I bet they gon' be afraid to play this song on rotation

But I'ma talk about it well I'ma talk about it baby

Can we talk about it

Fabolous：

We can't remain silence

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk about it

Fabolous：

We gotta speak up

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk about it

Fabolous：

They say it's justice

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk about it

Fabolous：

I feel like it's just us

Look I know y'all tired of talking and going to demonstrations

But if we don't speak up you help the discrimination

We need a one on one before it's goes gun on gun

People skip the front page 'til they see they son on one

And now it's too late to talk the topic has changed

They shooting at black targets like these cops at a range

Can we talk how many died for the birth of a nation

And how this national anthem ain't worth my ovation

And if I am standing up I'ma stand up for equality

It's brutality we need more than that apology

Can we talk about it not just artists but the players too

Y'all on the field not the mic but y'all can say it too

We need more Kaepernick and just what the rapper kicking

We need more than Instagram posts with smart captions

Black actors stop acting and start action

Kerr got the credit forgot about Mark Jackson d**n

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk about the lives being taken

Can we talk about the guns going off and the false accusations

I'm afraid of my own generation can we talk about it

No can we talk can we talk 'bout the blood on the pavement

I bet they gon' be afraid to play this song on rotation

But I'ma talk about it well I'ma talk about it baby

Can we talk about it

Can we talk about it

Can we talk about it

Can we talk about it

Fabolous /Jadakiss：

May I have your attention please

Sensitive subject but can we talk about it yeah

Step straight to it not try to walk around it nah

How we make America great again how

If we open up the doors and let haters in wow

It's nothing we winners

But that could all change since trump won we finished

Much realer than we thought

I'm saying all I really wanna know is can we talk

Teyana Taylor：

Can we talk for a minute

I just want to know know know

Can we talk for a minute

I gotta know right now right now yeah

Can we talk about it

Can we talk about it

Can we talk about it

Can we talk about it
