incwell - southern man lyrics
i remember sitting with grandma while she’s re-counting segregated bathrooms restaurants and drinking fountains, swimming in a sea of hate and it could of drown them cause all they had was faith but it could move mountains with the loss of king jr. and brother malcolm, mississippi’s burning to find some color balance it’s almost like all they knew it blood and malice so it was no escape to see another child k!lled, and so we pressed on though they tried to hide us behind them jail bars and open fire hydrants now time advanced and things is getting better but when did we forget how to stick together well cause at present it’s everyman for himself and i can’t understand history says you planning to fail
honestly i feel like i don’t even need to say it cause i drove through virginia i’ve seen the plantations i’ve read all the books that’s teaming with racism met filthy rich folks whom got it all but hate giving and it was written that we living to die so this the 68’ olympics put your fist in the sky i am trapped just like martin in his cell struggling cause mama will be starving if i fail i done my book reports saw how medgar evers lived others said they fight like him of course they never did, i studied black history i ridiculed my teachers i told them my opinion may be separate but it’s equal gave to my community made my grandma proud you got a reasonable request go ahead and hand it down i know what jfk did, i researched eisenhower so if you’ll with me i ain’t afraid to fight the power everybody
