My job is to somehow make them curious enough
To get more aware of themselves and where they came from
And what they are into
And what is already there

(Ugh)
We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized, on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover-up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still, we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

I feel connected to the cradle
Where we were prematurely severed by the navel
Part of the reason why we struggle to be stable
They want us believe that our history was a fable
And start with the ships
And the scars from the whips
And when the cotton get pick
And when the cane get cut
When they put the pain in us
But quitting ain't in us
Now come forward four centuries
Onward with a purpose ain't nothing could prevent these
Gods from pursuing success by renewing they vision
To aim with precession
My craft's my religion
My past my traditions
The secret's in the melanin
It's developing
The truth could be unsettling
But it's genuine
The birth of all humanity
Gah know your past if you wan' preserve your sanity
Love yourself, and don't let them call it vanity

We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized, on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover-up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still, we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

Check your history 'bout Columbus
I love black people, but we all live like squares
When we really came from the rhombus
Living, walk it like Marcus
Till I'm rotten, my carcass
I'm inches off Caucasian at surface
But my roots are Stallion colored
Ancestors slaving
Today they call it "laboring"
Black people working at manufacturing plants
Today are slabouring
(Uh)
Killa, I see your vision
More educating 'bout apartheid
When I scream "Freedom"
My niggas go hard right for me
You ain't 'bout shit if you work for the man
You sell dope but still work for the man
Cuz you still lustin' the bands
And you still lustin' them ends
And you still jerkin' your friends
Over white man's pushing weight
That Lou Ferrigno shit
(Uh)
Steadily rising through enterprising
It ain't surprising
God gave the bulbs
We kept it shining
Pray on my knees, so we going be grinding
It's black power in a white man's world
I'm just wising
(Nigga)

We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized, on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover-up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still, we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

Guilty of a homicide with the Killa
Death to the lies of histories, not a thriller
A forgotten Kingdom of black royals
Boosting stardom
Centuries long before Martin and Douglas
Still on the rise
We are the Phoenix from the ash
No diamonds or no cash
Can purchase what we stash
Cannot take over we survivors
Forget the colonizers
They only are dividers
(I Say)
They couldn't concur the fire within
Tis' this unity that still remains
One of our deepest and fatal sins
That's why the Killa get up
Say Shine and Jedi set up
United it stand and I rally for the black nation step up
Never you take us for no poppy show
We ready to go
Rosa Parks, Malcolm X flow
By any means
Inscription from the black skin glow
New chapter, we must win anywhere it go
Close that open door
(Shine-I)

We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized, on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover-up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still, we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

Why am I so insistent
Upon giving out to them
That black-ness, that black power
Pushing them to identify with black culture
I have no choice over it in the first place
To me, we are the most beautiful creatures in the whole world
Outside and inside
And to me, we have a culture
That is surpassed by, by no other civilization
