lyrics

VERSE 1
When i encounter people these days I’m happy to see em
I either wave hi, nod, or smile, thats how I greet ‘em
Now days, extra lovingly is how I treat em
But some people out here? see me as a demon
-Avoidin’ ya boy like a zombie bout to eat em
Or like Im to blame for there lack of fun and freedom-
Thru showin love I hope there’s a lessin I could teach em
cause despite the social distance jah love will reach em
-and touch em, cause some people aint hearin nuttin
got frantic and noid and pushed the panic button
and act like touchin’ me will give it to you suddenly
you masked Im not, but I can feel you judgin me
-begrudginly, stop so we can all live comfortably
Even if you got it, you still get love from me
why would I ever wanna add to your suffering
We are one, you are my other me

CHORUS
Stop lookin funny atcha brother man
Stop lookin funny atcha sistren
no matter what you goin thru
I love you the same and I won’t treat you different
stop lookin funny at me sistren
stop lookin funny at me brotherman
whatcha got to gain by lookin at me strange
what we need is love and upliftment


v2
of course we should all be cautious and safe
of course I ain’t tryna be all in ya face
of course I aint tryna test out my own fate
of course I respect life’s pace and Gods grace
-I’m in the aisle gettin grub at the grocery
its ok if you don’t want to approach me
But aint no need for you starin’ at me closely
all nosey, like you oppose me
-but don’t even know me, no need for that
aint YOU holy, breathe, relax
it’s good that you prepared but please be aware
we all need compassion, the people are scared
-and don’t know whats happenin, facin 'the unknown,
we lost, this is hard to handle on our own
now more than ever, we need to reinforce
our love for each other hold tight stay the course
Stop lookin funny atcha brother man
Stop lookin funny atcha sistren
no matter what you goin thru
I love you the same and I won’t treat you different
stop lookin funny at me sistren
stop lookin funny at me brotherman
whatcha got to gain by lookin at me strange
what we need is love and upliftment

CHORUS:
Stop lookin funny atcha brother man
Stop lookin funny atcha sistren
no matter what you goin thru
I love you the same and I won’t treat you different
stop lookin funny at me sistren
stop lookin funny at me brotherman
whatcha got to gain by lookin at me strange
what we need is love and upliftment

v3

My home girl parked her car fucked up for a minute
Because it was trash day, and got a ticket
tried to explain to the cop he was buggin
he fully masked up and aint tryna hear nuttin’
-she stepped off her porch, he said “stay back
its too late”, she was tryna just state facts
(Several) business’ been vandalized, cops ain’t respondin
scared to protect and serve, so its on then
-if I’m a criminal, Im a hit a lick a day
I’m on camera and I could still get away?
all because a cop is scared or hatin life
like we all are, wont even step out of the patrol car
-Man, i just love seein’ human beings
When I’m in the street, who’s thinking the same thing
when we greet each other, (they like) I wish the best for ya
and you for me, and all the rest of ya

CHORUS:
Stop lookin funny atcha brother man
Stop lookin funny atcha sistren
no matter what you goin thru
I love you the same and I won’t treat you different
stop lookin funny at me sistren
stop lookin funny at me brotherman
whatcha got to gain by lookin at me strange
what we need is love and upliftment
