THE WORD

I don’t wanna think about it too much
Lately I’ve been feeling like we all lost touch
Federales pull up to our people, no love
What’s a man to do when they come, ayy
Lately been feeling like it’s kill or be killed, man
They killing our children, we feeling the chills man
We got in the field
I struggle to feel love and nothing is real, damn
Emancipation they told you and killed men
Spirit can never die, I feel like it will be alright
See the hate in your eyes, I look myself in the mirror and wonder what is th
price
The bounty put on my head, thy wanting my people dead, damn
What’s the plan or the move
I’ve been blessed word
I’ll be damned when I used it against what they do
But I can never be afraid of the pain felt
Saved by the bell, the light, the water, the
Positive is how we prevail
I saw the hate and started loving myself
I saw my people in and out of the cells
Same time I see us rise at the greats
Came from the heavens, I know you relate
We found us a way, lifted a weight, wait, lemme explain
Before the whips and the chains
Before the change in the names
Know the history
Fastforward and our people remain
Nations rising well you thought we were done
Why the hell would we run
When the sun still shines, and my skin still glow, and my hair my still grow
Never let that go, nah nah
