lyrics

Now I’ve been raging lately
They’re killing black men daily
See the police won’t save me
Odds are they’ll probably blame me
Cos they were formed just to chain me
We’ve been sold a lie history books don’t try
Biased points of view the media throws at you
You and I are kings that’s where we begin
Find the scriptures and read the literature

Feel heart-broken lately
They shot another black lady
I’m in the front-line marching
Only to matters what we’re asking
That’s why they’re sitting back laughing
And I no longer can watch my people die
Arms in arms we are standing up to fight
Protect our brothers our sisters mothers
Now fellow man unite but be prepared to fight

I know you can’t wait until sundown
Cos you’ve carried a heavy load all over town
Equality is soon coming around
And we’re not gonna stop until its seen all around

New lock down regulations
Stopped paying slave reparations
Protect statues of slavers
And then you wonder why they hate us,
Its deep rooted shameless
400 years ago we were bought then sold
A thousand years before
We brought language
Taught mathematics with science magic the mystery unfolds
Forget what you’ve been told

They say a screw face nation
I’m processing information
No political representation (wah gwan)
So watch the words they have spoken
Before you give them your vote
You no longer can take the passive route
There’s no space for you casual racist Yute (I’m drawing you out)
Stamp it out football larger lout now
With educating and mental cleansing

I know you can’t wait until sundown
Cos you’ve carried a heavy load all over town
Equality is soon coming around
And were not gonna stop until it’s seen all around
