mdc - huddled masses lyrics
[verse 1]
some came to america in search of better lives
brought bibles and disease, their children and their wives
some came for a government in which they’d have a voice
some came in shackles, no one gave them any choice
[verse 2]
those who came for avarice to rape the virgin land
some came from a hunger from a famine+plagued land
others crave adventure, to see what thеy could learn
some werе stolen from their families, never to return
[verse 3]
those who came to worship the way they felt was right
so+called darky heathens commanded to the light
of blond hair n+z+ jesus to which they were forced to pray
shoved the cross down their throats, they choke on it today
[verse 4]
u.s. history books, where the bullsh+t will abound
say african tribal leaders sold their brothers down
it might ease white man’s conscience ’bout things he used to do
by telling lies to justify just what ain’t friggin’ true
[verse 5]
but now we’re all unshackled and some folks say, “we’re all free”
and some are so naïve they say we have “equality”
but i say move to harlem for one month and when it’s done
you’ll know the desperation that made your forefathers run
