It's time to control the narrative
They told me that words are powerful
So I should mind what I say
Therefore; I'm going to say this
We need our own identity
We need our own land
No, we don't need their promises
We need our plan
So we can execute
Don't execute your own man
How you killing over somewhere you don't own man?
I'm very proud to know that we can make the best out the worst
But as long as we claim black
We gon' be plagued with a curse
Another black body inside of a back of hearse
And then we double back and holla no justice no peace
You best realize that freedom don't come free
So either pay the price or get stuck with a bill
Now, please don't tell me how slavery was abolished
When Angola got my homies in the field working
Democrats - Republicans, that's the same person
So please don't tell me bout their laws
Because they ain't working
Their man-made, they're supposed to change that's the main purpose
Keep you dazed and confused, that's the man's purpose
Meanwhile, they broadcasting propaganda on the news
Got you thinking that every single fact equals truth
But one thing that I advise you to comprehend
Truth doesn't have to be proven by man
Goddam I know this ain't politically correct
We don't need to stop hate
We just need our respect
We don't need reparations till we get an ego check
Then financial literacy to invest in some assets
I can literally speak about everything we need to do
But I'd be a hypocrite if I said I'm better than you
In reality, I'm going through these same struggles too
Repeat after me, here's what we gon' do
Head up high
Stand on what I believe
Never compromise
I will always be free
Truth in my lungs
So the truth I will speak
I can breathe
Yes, I can breathe
Head up high
Stand on what I believe
Never compromise
I will always be free
Truth in my lungs
So the truth I will speak
I can breathe
Yes, I can breathe
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Let's not focus on what they got going on
Let's focus on building our own
And then protecting that thing that we built
Know what I'm saying
It's like they really don' fooled us and made us hate ourself
Know what I mean
They got us thinking that N*gger is a bad word
Like literally, N*gger activates your trigger
Then you get emotional
Then you get a second-degree murder
Or whatever the case is cuz' somebody on the other side called you a N*gger
Right, but what they ain't tell you is
N*gger, really Negus have power - sovereignty
Another thing, we gotta stop having this false sense of pride man
HBCUs are not for us
We don't own them
So we don't control them
Peace
