Devil Is Black (feat. EmmiBrowne)
I have fought very firmly against white domination,
I have fought very firmly against black domination,
We commit ourselves to the construction of a complete,
just and lasting peace
Look at what they did to Us
Look at how they made a fool of us
Look at how they made us believe that
corona is disease, Yet they lied to us
Look at how they told us that the devil is black
So the black man is evil, selling dopes and crack
Now they killing us for no reason this is so so serious
Yeah
Let the truth prevail,we no longer live like we used to
Our own brothers kill each other Cuz we choose to
Annihilating black dreams, future Kings too
Hating each other backbiting good friends too
Many things gone wrong in the world
Making it a cold place and no one will ever come through
The basic truth is black man is so confused
Not knowing left from his right 'our issues'
Now they brought us religion, a weapon,
dead belief, lifestyle, grave hate and separation
They made us believe we are no one blood
Yet we are created by one God
Devil is a lie
Its the perception of the mind.
So Many Preachers are Tired,
Telling us different stories on top of block lies
So Let the Black Man Rise
We are Kings we are wise
Make we stop to criticize our fellow brothers
Let the only true love survive.
Yeah uh
Look at what they did to Us
Look at how they made a fool of us
Look at how they made us believe that corona is disease,
Yet they lied to us
Look at how they told us that the devil is black
So the black man is evil, selling dopes and crack
Now they killing us for no reason this is so so serious
Uh.
Look at what they did
Say we one but we still kill our own people
Then we Preaching all the love but we still evil
Thanks to you a lot of black boys illegal
Had to sell this stash of dope just to put food on my table
Bags packed, boys fleeing town
They trying to work but no jobs so who's lazy now?
Can't be carried by six rather be judged by 12 juries
So I'm taking my chances and I put my life to it
Picture me an artist, and my heart's the masterpiece
I try to replicate it in the face of catastrophe
White supremacy is mental slavery
What does it have to do with all the hating and the jealousy
I feel pain for the south, feel pain for the east
For the soldiers in the north fighting a terror they cannot defeat.
Why are we the only ones that's refused to evolve?
Fighting over problems we can easily solve.
Look at what they did to Us
Look at how they made a fool of us
Look at how they made us believe that corona is disease,
Yet they lied to us
Look at how they told us that the devil is black
So the black man is evil, selling dopes and crack
Now they killing us for no reason this is so so serious
Yeah
They say no pain, no gain
Damn I'm right here I'm losing these chain
Police against civilians it's insane
Leaders keeping shut what a shame
In these crazy downtimes who do we run to
Is it the Headhunters who truly want you
Or silly politicians who no send you
At this point in time wetin u go do.
Bro it's high time we gotta kick it up
If you're broken into pieces better pick it up
Emmancipate yourselves from mental slavery
You got to build a stronghold, show your bravery
Baba God, na beg we dey beg oh
Protect your kids, from the hands of these men ọh
Pause their minds, and incline our heads oh
Africa will prevail in this quest oh
Because the devil is a lie
Its the perception of the mind
So Many Preachers are Tired
Telling us different stories on top of block lies
So let the black man rise
We are Kings we are wise
Make we stop to criticize our fellow brothers
Let the only true love survive
