[Kweli]

Go right to left, left to right

Middle passage connection

Yeah, about to build

Tell you which way to go



[Both]

We go right to left, left to right

If you fight to the death, what's left to fight

X4

Yo, here we go



[Kweli]

I wanna write away

I wanna write here

I wanna write brave words to fight fear

Write dreams and nightmares

Might scare the folks stuck in the day

But nothing to say,

Well I'm way ahead by light years

So beware we keep the lights on

I wanna write the songs from right to wrong

Right on

Riding the light so you see in the dark

So deep you gotta be still like your beating heart

My words apply the pressure to make the bleeding stop

See the art, living right, eating smart

I wanna right to life, a right to death

Police read your rights from right to left

But I never write to remain silent

I fight through police line

Cops walk the beat that I write to

I teach minds, write rhymes with the right sound

Right now, journalists write up

I write down



[Both] :Chorus

Party people put a hand in the sky

Grab a cloud and squeeze til no man is dry

We wet it up, go ask the people if they plannin to die

Can't stay to live, consumers is plannin to buy

Smoke death operators is standing by

They take you order for the slaughter of the family why

Do they make it so hard for a man to provide

You better get wit it, or {stand to the side X7}



[Vinia Mojica]

And the story line goes on

Right to left, who's right who's wrong

Fuck the politics and pride

I just to try to stay alive

To witness where the battle lines are drawn

Speak my mind and sing my song

I'm passin on the moral y'all-aca
