lyrics

VERSE 1 (CLEAN)

This is the making of a slave
take his land, take his culture, take em from his last name
make em work without a wage, disqualify em from the pay
let em build up all the pain, then arrest em for the rage
give em guns, give em crack, give em images that's black
to promote the genocide, let em put it in a rap
give em shine, let em grind, give em just enough time
to make it all look worth it, while they infiltrate yo mind
break the family dynamic and keep em locked up
no head of household while she be knocked up,
lack of resources, institutional extortion,
pushing plans to parents in the hood,
get an abortion.

VERSE 2 (RYAN LUCAS)

55 years off the plantations
Fresh off the democratic campaigning
Presi making deals off in Camp David
Stokley Carmichael black face the nation
Rush the vaccines call it gods creation
Apply the vaseline yes you have to take it
Stimulate the fear here your reparations
Storm the capital you can rep the racist
Friday 13th you can wrestle Jason
They didnt want Fred in feddy bracelets
Unload the clip after 30 paces
Watch em plot a scheme on New Jersey bases
Talking liberation give your bird a face lift
Place propaganda in favorite playlist
Open banks now you got the credit caved in
Only enemies stare at me on stages
Holy trinity starring in the matrix
Watch the snow fall agent name is trace less
Serve and protect from the scent of bacon
Ask the youngblood what they did in Macon


VERSE 3 (CLEAN)

New sheriff in town
Yea I'm a runaway, field hand
Kunte in a whip, it ain't no otha way
otha day,
aunty ask me, why I keep my hair this way
I told her it's a sign of my freedom
I won't assimilate
I'm just handlin my business, raising all my children
with my Nzinga on my side, while we chase a billion
crusin up the highway, here to do it my way
usher myself into my freedom, you can't deny me
reformed slave, now the captain of the white lion
mentally reversing the mission from all that white lying
it ain't no stopping us now, we the new legacy
descendants of Harriett
so you know it ain't no fear in me!
