Lyrics:

oppression remains
At the root Its just
Slavery by Another Name
Don't take for granted
What exists today
Cause in the blink of an eye
It could be snatched away
Modern day slaves 
By another name 
Modern day slavery 
Got our brothers chained 
Modern day lynching 
To our utter shame
On social media 
We all
and cultural divide
Where is humanity gone
Would the hatred subside

Scream my name
Set me free
Sanctify
Falsify

Judging one another by colour of skin
Judging
evidence for
If these things are what you mean by God
Then I believe in God but I
Don't believe in a personal
God to whom I look for comfort or for a
Natural
day, modern day slavery

'Ca after yuh rush out a yuh yard so early
Wuk all day plus overtime fi earn more money
By de time yuh reach home yuh so tired
of slavery, four hundreds years of slavery.

I wake up in a foreign land, wake up in a foreign land,
Foreign land, foreign land.
I wake up in a foreign land,
1 Name, 1 Name, 1 Name, 1 Name, 1 Name…
And he brought us out of Egypt, out of slavery, out of bondage
But he only gave us 1 Name, 1 Name
Yea Moses
scream "Free Pimp C" but not see the pimp free (here I go)

[C-Murder]
Wake up, roll call, another day gone by
Now put a 'X' on November 25 I'm still
inhumanity in
It's name out of this blind
Ignorance was born the curse of slavery
Many of the founders of
This nation were themselves Masons that is
Not a Left
play on and on


The storm is here, the lightning flashes
Between commercials they’re taking names
The singers run to where the cash is
Just another link
nothing but another calculated schemes
To get us locked up shot up back in chains
To deny us of the future rob our names
Kept my history of mystery but
roll call, another day gone by
Now put a 'X' on November 25, I'm still alive
Open the dead roll balls
Now this dead man walkin' parkin' million dollar
the South
I spit that slavery heat
Hatin' me for stuff I can't control

That drop be crazy, G
Snake in me, gotta watch they backdoor they be fakin', G
Devil
in order to settle the debate about slavery and how to further the country’s progress. How does a nation so deeply divided heal its wounds? The young
were making strides until
clong came Old Jim Crow
The Reconstruction Era
Was demolished by white fear
Separate; not quite equal
For another hundred years
I'm not stressing it
Match my fucking numbers I don't care about that leverage shit, pay me
Why would I beat slavery to slave again explain it .
Why
Push that slavery away from me
Ain’t no slavery ok with me
Don’t need no chain I got my pedigree
I’m a champion I trained to be
Push that slavery
It's 'cause we lost ourselves
It's a misfortune to tell and of course we don't know it but
We assisted, not just slavery, we weren't always forced
name, and you gon' be another
Bitch, I'm out that North where ain't no shame, he get stretched by his brother
Catch 'em out of bounds, we pluck 'em
design, in my own clothing line 
By the name of Birdgang feeling free as a bird mane 
One hundred percent, fifty-fifty, dry-fit, ringspun, tri-blend
Aw Naw
or what my aim is
You the fucking problem
That's where the blame is
Cops killing black people
That's what insane is
Weak politicians we know what your name
If this is how it is it is the color blue or is it just another story that I never knew
If this is how it is it is the color blue or is it just
Floating by
Should I believe my eyes
Or is like another
Sweet mirage in the sky
Then who supplied this lie
Toes are frozen
I
Have no time for pie
Can I
that's different
So even if another wanted to take my life
I ain't never gon die if I depend on Christ
He knows the hairs on my beard
Keep me safe night
