|
ack Jesus, white Jesus, Jesus where do I begin?
|
sons of former slaves, former slave owner's, at the table king,
|
Fomer cave owner's, gene donors, that's my thing,
|
baa baa black sheep, what I can, cannot sing.
|
How did it ever get to this, vicious circle, circus ring,
|
circumstance has me defending my skin,
|
on ice where the ice is thin.
|
What have we become, why have we become numb?
|
colour just a cover, uncover, discover within.
|
|
Stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
peace is our policy, for peace we're bound!
|
|
Stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
peace is our policy, for peace we're bound!
|
|
Black Jesus, white Jesus, Jesus when do you step in?
|
sons of fomer slaves, voters, home owner's,
|
at their tables, King.
|
On their cables, TV screens, cam captured everything.
|
All across the globe shocked, racial tensions rocked,
|
April 29. 92 white jury hits the spot,
|
black fury loaded, exploded like a gun shot,
|
left a message that must never be forgot,
|
for a front seat on the bus, how high the cost?
|
Bellies turned, cities burned,
|
anger justified, vindicated why, indignation, pride,
|
constitution lied, someone's gotta pay, fifty eight die.
|
Two wrongs, no light, case of black against the wall,
|
and I ain't going down without a fight.
|
|
Stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
peace is our policy, for peace we're bound!
|
|
Stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
stay back, stay back, stay down,
|
peace is our policy, for peace we're bound!
|
|
Just about ready for this!
|
This!
|
Just about ready for,
|
|
Take your time, you got all the time you need,
|
Criticize, first pick up the page and read.
|
Justified, ya better believe,
|
I am not your enemy, so no apologies please.
|
|
Peace is our policy, peace is our policy,
|
peace is our policy, peace is our policy,
|
peace is our policy, peace is our policy,
|
peace is our policy, for peace we're bound!
|
|

Just about ready for, this!

Just about ready for, this!

Just about ready for, this!

Just about ready for, this!
