marleveli shakur - black america lyrics
verse 1
land for the free
still ain’t free under land they steady bury us
cornered by environments but yea we broke them barriers
even wen it got ugly u kno we had to go and take our shot like shawn marion
treat us like we naive and just go and bury it
hatchet had to carry it
how they run my brutha sistas underground like harriet
how yall made life real hard i mean real hard to go and cherish it
but i dont expect u to understand growing in this skin
generational sins religiously get us h+ll bent
can’t ean walk without a cop up on our tail end
in dis white man’s world its at yall fairy tale end
i mean it’s fairly at its tale end
cudnt understand not getting a job cuz of a name dat ya mom gave
sick and tired of all the pain and the the heartache
funerals police tactics and them court dates
while the unnews cover up the lies that yall orchestrate
i’m tryn get mo bruthas in but this ain’t no slave boat
cuz i den found my ways in the war ta(water) survive but
i tolja dis ain’t no slave qoute
i knew ton of problems got us huey p and more he then a eldridge cleaver
a black leader
leading out the black
so i cud never leave ya
wat kind of(wakanda)brutha hold us down and still k!ll monger(k!ll amongst us)
and still k!ll among us

verse 2
gotta watch for them reptilian faces
but loyal ima rep til he in faces
end imitation, skip limitations
cuz wen i get bored of lines(borderline) i cud end immigration
but wat dey wann us do
cause in(cousin) corrupt(kurupt) we snoop
strap up we troop
cuz dey tryn stut the growth of youth, where we gotta die just(digest) to process this food, for thoughts dey deliver a coffins, if u smart
break down n explain wats misunderstood
sandra bullock, trying blindside us in this bird box
like we forgot sandra bland and how that turned out
alton sterling and what dey had in store for him, got us burnt out
but want us run back in fields
k!llin us wrong cuz we was emmitt till we saw how that turnt out, and it still got us burnt out
but now we standin for action
cuz its too many denzels playin malcom
only mean they actin like dey activist
only make it worst for the ones who really out attacking this
actually it keep us goin backwards here, already we ain’t neva ask for this, mayne we gotta get back to this
i cud neva turn my back to this
that’s why u see us stand
it’s for power with a black fist
hook
