We gave you history But what about the true story Hidiing your heritage To keep you into bondage They stole your culutre To say you got no future Destroyed your tradition To keep you into subjection And that's the true story They took the natural living And gave you articificail living They took the solcial living And turned it into socilisim They took the communl living And turned in into communisum They took the capital living And turned it into capitialism And that's the true story My ancestors were kings of old Half the stories have not been told They were mighty men and women My children will be like them We are the seed of abraham Descneded from adam We are the true born israleites The true born ishmaelites And that's the true story don't you lie Don't want your hizzim shcism Your just for the system Don't want your fo Lucifer You call it your philosiphy Don't want your lies buried You call it your library We want the true story
