[verse]
Let he without sin go cast the first stone,
let he about biz get grants and no loans,
let she without fear go after her own
and never get wit a nigga who cap wit no goals,
that part, this black art on display,
we protest at night then go to work at day,
we party on weekend, turn up frequent then shout injustice is the problem we face,
one foot in the grave the other leading a march,
that's how we step towards the light but still be in the dark,
that's how the problems are spoke of but they never change,
as they holla we woke and don't know a damn thing,
justice for fill in the blank, another brand name,
nothing more than a talking point on campaigns,
fuck you want from me, I been saying it for years,
I have seen the exodus and, it's a trail of tears,
the same activist building bridges to nowhere,
be in the club drunk, throwing money at showgirls,
or in a corner office, nice, drawing up proposals,
asking for approval to give people what they owe them,
I do not condone it, but who am I to say,
apparently, everybody thinks that it's okay,
if you believe support from the system doesn't come with conditions go ahead and lead the way

I believe, I have integrated my people into a burning house, Martin Luther King took a while but he figured out, so how we up worse than we started, tell me what's the purpose of a martyr (2x)

[verse]
God knows, too bad you dont,
or you do just too stubborn to abandon the old,
you can't fight the oppressor that you get ya check from that's a conflict of interest, you can't have both,
that's a short leash, comes with Quarterly Reports,
Cointelpro 2, order on the court,
the black messiah will rise it's just a matter of time,
it has been written and you can't scribble the lines,
but of course we tired my negus we still human,
may come as a surprise to you, get use to it,
"if I could keep slaves and maintain the union", he said, "I'd do it",
so don't be foolish,
Lincoln gave stimulus checks for lost property,
to every slave holder who had to set his stock free,
and we still waiting on reparations,
gave an apology but no 40 acres
