Lyrically, “Sick of This” continues Darrell Kelley’s long-running focus on social justice and community uplift. The song speaks directly to cycles of violence in marginalized communities, urging listeners to put the guns down, recognize their heritage, and “start spreading love” instead of blood. Throughout the lyrics he ties pride in African and African-American history to a call for unity, imagining hugs and compassion where there are now headlines about loss, and framing love and solidarity as the true inheritance from “kings and queens” and ancestors who “gave us it all.”
The single “Sick of This” is available on all major streaming platforms.
A performance video and official uploads on YouTube are already drawing views in the six-figure range only weeks after release, suggesting the message is resonating with a growing audience. On Instagram, Kelley has also previewed lines from the track alongside a plea to “stop shedding your own blood” and choose love instead, underscoring the anti-violence stance at the heart of the song.
“Sick of This” follows a string of socially conscious releases such as “Drones” and “I Rebuke You,” which take on issues ranging from government accountability to police brutality. Together with those tracks, the new single reinforces Darrell Kelley’s profile not just as a recording artist, but as a spiritual leader and activist who uses modern gospel, hip hop, and R&B to call for justice, understanding, acceptance, and unity.
