Wes the first creators So we haffi really Everything wey you see on this earth here The black man make it I not saying that the white man doh make some But all wisdom come from the black man You know a lot of young viewers look up to you Are gonna wanna hang on every word and every syllable Do you have a message for young people? What you think about me says more about you Than it does about me When I beg you don't shoot When I'm gasping for air as I cry out I can't breathe Dear mama, what I do for them to hate me? What is about us you fear the most? Is it our eyes, our nose, our skin and bones? Is it the fact this world started with us A bloodline so exquisite, it runneth over my cup You ever thought about how slavery started? We had everything, from minerals to language Astrology and physics, the science of mathematics Knowledge, wisdom, understanding without western influencing And when they sourced the resources We approached with love, not knowing they'd take our freedom We wept like Jesus, how could we not be God's children? How could we not be God's children The whole thing again is to really check out the truth And don't get too busy, that you can't check out the truth Cause the truth is there The victor or the victim The voice of oppression The signs of the times tell me that the Lord's coming A cry of desperation A prayer for my bredrin For man and women My women and children Yeah yeah God bless the child that can hold his own I gotta align my crown Chakra just to get in my zone To get away from all of the chaos that the city is on See this music is my catharsis in the purist of forms, now tell me Who wanna rumble in the jungle where the mighty fumble? The honorable, Elijah Muhammad taught me don't let this world become you Through the trials and tribulations remember the God inside you Although it's hard to stay righteous when these demons surround you Yeah, the plight of a black man's life Ain't nothing funny bout the precision that we need to survive To walk outside and catch a virus, or get harassed by a cop To be imprisoned or die by senseless shots, but I can't miss my shot They told us walk in his image, but hid the pictures Took away our spirituality but gave us scriptures It's all a lie Our essence, our beauty, it's all a vibe Still we rise The trials of the black woman and child You know, how long must the black people suffer? And wes a people, you know? And then we have we own culture We have everything, we not short of anything The victor or the victim The voice of oppression The signs of the times tell me that the Lord's coming A cry of desperation A prayer for my bredrin For man and women My women and children Yeah yeah Black kings, black Leaders, black gold Black queens, black love, forever we shall withhold Black seed, black soil designed by the mother earth Black man, black soul, don't undersell what you're worth Black icons, black fashion, the influence on the world Black music, black history, their erosion didn't work Black power, black features, can't forget about the culture Black people please remember the enemy ain't one another Black magic This alchemy's sponsored by my ancestors, my Skin is power, but based on my color They tried to say I wasn't a star, ha How incorrect, my black is brighter than the dark, yeah And that's a fact, motherfucker
