United minds of America
|
make your vocal chords reach the clouds and
|
touch the crowd of folks that overstand there's no jokes
|
we must network together as one &
|
tell the oppressor we'll take no less than
|
total justice a social setting yo I'm bettin'
|
we can stop new world order
|
start servin liberty may I take your order
|
free political prisoners without no question
|
let's give props where due
|
If it was you wouldn't you want to know
|
that someone cares for what you do so let's show
|
political prisoners, homeless humans, organizations
|
various movements
|
that the people in America have some discipline
|
to act on their belief therefore stress activism
|
although you are only one person
|
if for truth you still thirst well thirst then
|
make the difference by joining
|
some organization or some movement
|
let me explain the powers that be
|
are families of power with old money
|
Unfortunately on their souls hangs a sold sign
|
and in righteous sight they are so blind!
|
Infatuated with their power and their greed
|
they don't see that GOD is the answer
|
Greed has planted a seed within the souls of the 13 families
|
drug dealers and hustlers
|
All my brothers and sisters that are hustlers
|
selling crack cocaine to your followers
|
to me you're a sell out an uncle Tom
|
in the tom tom club droppin bombs
|
Causing confusion shootin and killin'
|
you're playin the role putting fear in populations
|
making us allow the system to "protect" us
|
allowing the chicken snake to protect the chickens
|
police brutality claiming victims
|
the powers that be may come with their solutions
|
but trust me their trees bear No fruits no
|
I guess that's why I get spiritual
|
spirituality supports reality no not catholic no not Baptist
|
no not passive
|
very active!
|
|
United minds of the Americas
|
minds of Africa and the Caribbean
|
and the Europeans and the Asians and Australians
|
it's not just race we're all in this together!
|
Lets play a game of jeopardy what's the question?
|
Social Medicines the answer
|
I try to eat healthy to avoid the cancer
|
one ounce of prevention beats 100 pounds of cure
|
pure ways of living is not hippish
|
it's not white not black it's just conscious
|
conscious of your health, conscious of your self
|
instead of being so damn conscious of your wealth
|
(or lack of so...)
|
DO you know about the Panthers,
|
the MOVE organization, Kwame
|
Nkrumah, the Zulu nation or just Nikes and Pumas
|
or your fascination with the so-called B-Boy fashion nation.
|
If you can please recycle
|
even the people in the hood please recycle
|
I know it wasn't our fault that they went psycho
|
they meaning industry exec's who flex for profit!
|
Traditional societies and islanders
|
please retain your culture and don't give up!
|
Don't you understand we must understand this
|
if we want to live in bliss
