lyrics

You hear them horns and seals breaking that's destiny

These black bodies been breaking since Bays on Chesapeake
These Black Bodies been shining you still afraid of WE
and we ain't even looking for blood just want equality honestly why do u hate as if you can not see, seek and ye shall find the truth is always sublime this skin never a crime
Your time is in decline the rise of the divine it's written my bloodline

Another mother had to cry today,
no justice for her baby
In the streets he got blown away,
Story after story, after story let the record play,
reform is just another word for we don't give a damn ok?
You Pray until you become Prey,
Ayye Hit record before them 12 hit me
We been ignored so this is why the fray
If Malcolm was alive I'd wonder what he'd really have to say

The Master teacher he has spoke again
No code switchin these the rights of Men
You learn the law then you never bend
Race is not given to the swift endure to the end That's when them credits roll
I know you tired though
This for the Brenda's and the babies
with the golden glow
Tears tearing through tear gas
Ain't letting go
Friends fighting for freedom yes and
We see the open doe
We gave you peace
You gave us bullets
So we back for mo
The People rising up
Hope and love what we got in store
You tried to diss us
Saying you find discust in us
Ok, cool, we gone hit with that new Justice.

Exceptionally produced, beautiful instrumental hip hop that furthers the reaches of what a beat tape can be. I can wait for more, however long it takes, it'll be worth it. aaronk4455
