Can you feel it

Tension in the air

Racism

Violence everywhere

Davis Howard Beach

Bumpers and Brawley

It appalls me

Now it's there

Really racial justice

It's time that we discussed this

I'm disgusted

I don't trust it

What's this

About

New evidence brings doubt

On who took King out

Must have had clout

Took the Kennedy route

Witness

Stories contradict and

Confliction make Black men

Say it had to end

It won't happen again

Pump your fist (3x)

Can you hear me

Hittin' home

Knowledge

Is the danger zone

Liars and bigots

And hypocrites start to panic

They get frantic

Power

Generated by the truth

Time to educate the youth

The lust for money

Is out of control

Here's proof

Drugs

Always a tragic ending

And at the risk of spending

Time in jail

Caught on a bum sale

They persist

Knowin' death's a risk

Ignorance is bliss

Chump their face

Kill their race

They deserved to get dissed

Pump your fist (3x)

We feel the wrath

From what happened in the past

Has made us walk a path

Made by slavery

Though bravery

We lost

Our unity our source

Of power and we lost

All race pride

In our Holocaust

Now it's my creed

I'm from a stronger breed

My ancestors indeed had to bleed

Whipped 'till they were freed

And now

I look back and say wow

How did we allow

Physical slavery

I just don't ever again

See it now I vow

Pump your fist (3x)

But are we free

In actuality

Let's talk reality

Can't you see

The slave mentality

It's a sickness

That eats you up like cancer

And money's not the answer

Won't advance ya

Don't take a chance ya

Lame

Selling drugs for fame

That's the weak man's game

It's a shame

You got the chains on your brain

You're givin'

Drugs to kids and livin'

Half your life in prison

God's for givin'

But you got to work with him

Pump your fist (3x)

Distortion confusion

Equality illusion

Justice collusion

No racism delusion

History erased it

Lives wasted

Victory tasted

Drugs face it

Knowledge wisdom

Educational system

Blurred vision

Lies dis 'em

Voice loud

Black proud

Truth vowed

No sellouts allowed

Pump your fist (3x
