Lyrics
Verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend It goes power to the righteous cause the powers never liked Us eating at the table seems they never wanted to invite us They rather just divide us and indict us and in light of what's happening Down in Flint they want us catching Meningitis Our suffering empowered me to write this for the youth To evolve Get back to the cycle of moon and the stars It's hard to decipher what's true or false propaganda And deception media putting a slant on my perception Millions raised to finance the elections what we manifesting When we putting money in the hands of the oppressor Can Bernie Sanders make a difference? And why we always looking Outside ourselves to make a change in how we living? Stuck within a system pathway from school to prison Substituting racists concepts with words and euphemisms We need answers for this cancer to make it thru remission While you popping off the lip the clocks ticking the youth listens Chorus: Dick Gregory speech Verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend For all intents and purpose don't ever mention an indentured Servants and When it comes to blacks and cops don't ever mention murder Don't ever mention water don't ever mention war Don't ever mention racism and don't mention poor Dead bodies hung on a rope that's too uncomfortable we ‘posed to be the dumbest and slow smelling the gun smoke Social experiments the butt of all embarrassment a System never based on merits is what we married with Without the marriage license trying to paralyze our minds With ISIS speak eloquent like Michael Eric Dyson Whichever way you slice it truth is inescapable I say it Even if only capable to save a few Slaving for a plate of food That's how they labeled you they locked you in a 360 jail just like the labels do It's mental warfare the very thing we chasing is decimated by time and everything erases
