We went from laying bricks to making bricks without straw
To making trips like outlaws with weighted bricks for long hauls
Cross state lines that's Fed time, CO tell you yo bedtime
PO give you a deadline, it's a mighty thin line
Between slave and free man, between king and heathen
Between angel and demon, loyalty and treason
For this purpose we in trouble with the Most High
All these curses cleaving to us like E. coli
Oh my word shall not return unto me void
Says the Mighty One of Israel who you can't avoid, no
Woe is you, woe is me
Woe is all our family 'cause we have no country of our own now
We lay bricks, 9 to 5 in the matrix
All so master stay rich and barely we make cents
It don't even make sense
All dem do is play tricks on our mind while the snakes hiss
Like Pharaoh's magicians
Nothing new under sun, so we challenge the system
Man on a mission like Moses was and Aaron
Casting down devils over us
Whereupon, the Egyptian king stripped away our resources
He wanted us to beg on our knees like we forfeit, no
We make bricks without straw
Through the power of the blood of the Lamb Yahusha, whoa

Boots on our necks taking on new meanings now
Everything changed when we started reading now
They increasing our labor 'cause we calling ABBA
We gon scream louder, we gon give these people problems
New Kemet you going down like Kermit, that's a frog
Add on all the other plagues bumps up on your skin like logs
None of you shall move your tongue against us not even a dog
Since y'all like to play so much you gon get an eternal pause
With everything you got you tryna keep my people from the laws
You see the Hebrews waking they got Jacob working twice as hard
Peep distractions is the new age slave master
The goats feeding their own while the sheep starving in the pasture
Meanwhile, they content because they think they gon get raptured
They beat this into us and and we see it stuck with us after
Let me explain, back when you was physically a slave
And every single day you was experiencing pain
They told you it's all good as long as it's in Jesus' name
So you just went with it and prayed to see another day
Those who rebelled they got slain
Some were compelled, they got paid
A butter biscuit was sufficient to make sellouts feel like kings
So in this age little changed, minimum wage is all they pay
To the ones who need it most, no matter how we rant and rave
Remember what I said about working us twice as hard
Ain't it odd we the lazy ones but yet we built it all
Remember what I said about the slave master
Nowadays, a pair of J's will get your brain splattered
Distraction causes a reaction in our community that's disastrous
Why they gotta kill you if you kill your own
They taking out fifty birds with a single stone
Growing up you learn to mind your business
If you get involved they gon do you like they did prophet Moses
What's healing to Egypt for you is sickness
Abomination here need far more than an admonition
Our Lamb propitiated our heart needs to show contrition
Now is the time to listen and now you make a decision
Choose who this day that you serving
You bound to the covenant anyways make it worth it
And who the Son of man sets free is truly free, indeed
Don't listen to Pharaoh when he tell us we ain't finna leave
He truly terrified that's already verified
I want you to memorize John chapter 6 and 5
He made five loaves and two fish multiply
So when he tell you, you got no straw just say that it's fine
