We Are Ubuntu (feat. Malik Willoughby)

We are Ubuntu
You give it you got you got you got you (you give it you got it you got it you good)

Sawubona
I dont just greet you but you're me too
Shikoba
Exist to see you is what it speaks to
The corners
Zulus recruit you in they sou sou
The owners
Old to new school we are Ubuntu

Oh say The American dream is a pyramid scheme (get yours)
Your mere existence is sheer resistance (for sure)
Ask and answer the question critically (see)
What kind of ancestor am I living to be? (B)
Or become young see freedom aint free (fees)
There is a cost boss, wager your mind-body soul now
Pay attention to what you say, think, eat, show now
State the right pronoun, stay on code now
No waiting for go time, baby lets go now
Making good trouble, soldiers it's the show down
Watch stocks game stop blast these coon-quistadors
You think hurling rocks don't hurt? Ask the deenosaur
Not the average brick negus, you's a me-te-or
Seen your whole work coloneezer, been keeping score (Chancellor Williams)
Here for what you owe me, word to bebe moore, (reparations, pay a negus)
Awakening the sleeping lion peep this and see peeps roar

Sawubona
I dont just greet you but you're me too
Shikoba
Exist to see you is what it speaks to
The corners
Zulus recruit you in they sou sou
The owners
Old to new school we are Ubuntu

We breathe for one another put your trust in me (inhale)
Keepers of my brothers shared custody (exhale)
There's a root system in the jungle that feeds dying trees
When you give your neighbor, a goat let go of the leash (kuhpeesh)
When I see you I see me so who you seeing?
Self care is self preservation so how you breathing?
No matter how foul it gets you're an alchemist
Go 'head you're mountainous (whoa!) with just an ounce of this

We pieces of the great maafa
And the mamas and the papas
The joys traumas midwives witch doctors
So... rebuild and heal you whole self
Yo! Be still it's how you kill your old self
In order to know life you must know death first
In order to get right - get with this breath work
Ancestral traumas on today's battle turf
Mixed with Man-tested trauma leads to this shadow work

Sawubona
I don't just greet you but you're me too
Shikoba
Exist to see you is what it speaks to
The corners
Zulus recruit you in they sou sou
The owners
Old to new school we are Ubuntu
