Michael Jackson - Scream
by Michael & Janet Jackson, James Harris Iii & Terry Lewis
Tired of injustice
Tired of the schemes
Life is disgustin’
So what does it mean, damnit
Kicking me down
I got to get up
As jacked as it sounds
The whole system sucks, damnit
Peek in the shadow
Come into the light
You tell me I’m wrong
Then you better prove you’re right
You’re sellin’ out souls but
I care about mine
I’ve got to get stronger
And I won’t give up the fight
With such confusions
Don’t it make you wanna scream
(Make you wanna scream)
Your bash abusin’
Victimize within the scheme
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize
Somebody please have mercy
’Cause I just can’t take it
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Tired of your tellin’
(Tellin’)
The story your way
(The story your way)
You're causin’ confusion
(Confusion)
Then think it’s okay, damnit
Keep changin’ the rules
While you’re playin’ the game
I can’t take it much longer
I think I might go insane
(Now, baby)
With such confusion
Don't it make you wanna scream
(Make you wanna scream)
Your bash abusin’
Victimize within the scheme
(Scream it baby)
You find your pleasure scandalizin’ every lie
Oh father, please have mercy
’Cause I just can’t take it
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop fuckin’ with me
Make me wanna scream
Oh, my God, can't believe what I saw
As I turned on the TV this evening
I was disgusted by all the injustice
All the injustice
All the injustice
"A man has been brutally beaten to death by Police after beingwrongly identified as a robbery suspect. The man was an 18 yearold black male..."
Yeah yeah
Baby
With such collusions
Don’t it make you wanna scream
(Make you wanna scream)
Your bash abusin’
(Make you wanna scream)
Victimize within the scheme
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize
Oh brother please have mercy
’Cause I just can't take it
Just can’t take it
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin’ me
Just stop pressurin’ me
Stop pressurin’ me
Make me wanna scream
Stop your pressure!
