We have nothing to lose but our chains Now you say that - so loud them - outside hear you It is our duty to fight for our freedom It is our duty to win We must love and support each other We have nothing to lose We have nothing to lose We have nothing to lose but our chains Send this one out to To the mothers they neglected To the fathers they rejected To the sisters disrespected To the brothers unprotected All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us We send this one out to To the mothers they deceited To the fathers they mistreated To the sisters they misleaded To the brothers and get beated All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us This is happening to all of us If our struggle is a strain then the strain is dominant My name is prominent for entertainment that's laced with consciousness But really its just common sense like Lonnie Lynn Letras de cancionesYou don't need binoculars to see the light coming through the dome like it's an oculus The common myth that we're savages with no history or accomplishments Or knowledge of ourselves they did a job on us Considering the prediction of economists Machines will do our jobs for us The future for the working class is ominous They got us indoctrinated through a brew A religion mixed in with abuse Emotional we sit in pews It's physical we get the noose And hang ourselves refusing to name ourselves Refuse to change ourselves When I talk about our past it doesn't ring a bell They make you hate yourself it take effort so check the method They'll take you from your family, your kids will never respect you Attach your sins to the black of skin we get the message We start acting if we cracking the whip better than the oppressor ,yes Every problem can't be solved at the ballot box We unifying Africa like Gaddafi that's what got Malcolm shot They out to stop anybody with knowledge that figured out the plot On the balcony like Martin Luther King I been to the mountaintop The blue wall of silence, it's really the blue wall of violence The good cops who retire and get fired They screaming black on black as an excuse for you to not care Till the cops roll up in their SWAT gear I tarried through the turbulent month of Ramadan Sweating all through the night just like the Holy Prophet Then reappeared on the stage in BK with the Ummah Shoulder to shoulder with J Cole and Kweli Just before Jehovah the God crowned me the king with his goldie locket Alhamdulillah, we've come really far, ain't it? The little engine who could, could power any car can't it? The mothers in Chiraq say the murders getting burdensome The cries of the despised was heard flying out of Ferguson The last days and times The holy Quran and Bible we on the last page and line The verse with all the babies dying Outside of the matrix, inside of the spaceship but the savior's blind Or so it seems, years after Noah was told he would row upstream The heavens bursted and the rains came Retaliation for the sons of the fathers who worked the chain gangs I hit that shmoney dance on the coffin of a crooked cop In a Worldstar society where all we do is look and watch No intervention, policemen beating elderly women with evil intentions on the highways and the byways The police state be sprayed into the backstreet to the driveways Officer friendly is an enemy now, looking at me sideways It was all bad just a week ago The view was just as sad just a peep ago The cries of the asiatic ancient-semitic peoples that propel Jay Elec from the pedestal to the steeple To the mothers they neglected To the fathers they rejected To the sisters disrespected To the brothers unprotected All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us We send this one out to To the mothers they deceited To the fathers they mistreated To the sisters they misleaded To the brothers and get beated All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us This is happening to all of us To the mothers they neglected To the fathers they rejected To the sisters disrespected To the brothers unprotected All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us We send this one out to To the mothers they deceited To the fathers they mistreated To the sisters they misleaded To the brothers and get beated All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us This is happening to all of us We've got to live, live to the end (We gotta do, we do) We've got to live, (for our grandmothers) live to the end (and granddaddies too) We've got to live, (live for the babies) live to the end (my brothers out there going crazy) From Letras Mania
