Son of a Wonche man of the medicine Son of a soldier Armed Force veteran Westside 18th Crenshaw and Washington Gold Coast shoreline midnight darkenin' 1619 400 walkin in Elmina Cape Coast Gouree ported in Story recorded in spirituals and imagery Skin coated melanin livin' in the memory Whole world wholesaled imprisoned in our misery Vividly the struggle we endured in our history Defined through the hustle we insured so artistically Aligned in our dance and the pure drums mystically From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see Middle Passage came it wasn't no Soul Train San Juan Bautista a river they called James Please don't confuse with the Godfather of Soul The big payback is the story that's never told Shielded tucked suffocated or thrown away Yielded incarcerated and blown away Come on feet song of our back still sweet Bleedin' of my mama and papa but never me Who was the first to chant to heal the hurt Who was channelin' all the spirits while tillin' dirt Who was cypherin' on the block and gettin murk'd Who was dancin' and singin' excluded while they're at work Who was pinpointed broken down stolen from and stopped Who was being clocked and jocked and hit with rocks Descendants of Van Peebles, Spike and Fanaka Griots God's jali Toltecatl in Oaxaca Henrik Clarke, Josef Ben Sebi Dr. Claude Maya Madame Walker and abroad We are the artists the warriors of word And movement mastery majesty observed Obo and A. Wone Proud where we came from Sittin' on the edge we were Masters from day one Landed in a portal Alien in nature Twenty fingers clenched On a mission we gone take ya From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see I be afforded and endowed with a gift Teach the world rhythm to feed the soul in the glyph D is the Duty every artist should assume I is the Influence so Inspired when in tune A is the call that the ART sparks ALL T is the Tree strong roots sprout Tall R is the Royalty you feel when you're free I is Individuality ME B is the Beauty from the groove we share E is Essential to Effect Everywhere From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see From the village to the streets Comes the rhythm and the beats DiaTribe is the only vibe I see
