Generate meaning
1
Aiyyo put one in the air for the ancestors, why'know?
2
Cause without them, there'd be no us, that's real
3
There's something on my mind.. everyday, all the time
4
It's the legacy, why'know? generations, of black people
5
Now bust this...
6
Aiyyo i think about this government, three strikes capital punishment
7
Enslaved my peoples for four hun-d-red
8
Yeah, plus some
9
Often dream of goin' back in time and givin' slaves guns {*buk!*}
10
So they can watch the master run
11
Watch them devil try to get away then clap his back with the shotgun
12
I got one, let's cut his head off
13
Let's take it to Harriet Tubman, show her that we ready to set it off
14
She get Nat turner, Nat go get Sojourner
15
Sojourner send a messenger for Touissant l'overture
16
Through the underground railroad, we go
17
Through the dark to the edge of forest to meet with Denmark
18
Vessey, you know he got soldiers ready
19
Ready to kill like lions, in the Serengeti
20
So like a stampede we rush the plantation
21
Settin' fire to everything, burn them down like cremation
22
No hesitation, free up the black nation
23
Kill them devils take his ships and head back for the mainland
24
The game plan, yet and still it's just a dream
25
I never forget, in my mind it never leave, aiyyo
26
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
27
I never forget, in my mind it never leave
28
These dreams, filled with days of slavery
29
Never forget, in my mind it never leave
30
These dreams, filled with days of slavery
31
Aiyyo, aiyyo Jamie was a slave
32
Every baby she'd have the master would take away
33
She never seen one long enough to give a name
34
Everytime the master would rape, Jamie'd feel ashamed
35
She was only fourteen
36
Violated, used and abused, far from a queen
37
I met Jamie in a dream
38
I gave her a brand new M-16 with two magazines
39
I told her next time he come around
40
Act like you want him, get him to lay down
41
Make sure that he take off his clothing
42
After that i want you to fill him up, full of bullet holes
43
Release the whole clip, set trip on that motherfucker
44
Tell him that's for disrespectin' you and your mother
45
Your grandmother, your great-grandmother
46
Your brother your father, in the land they call the mother
47
Next thing you do is round up all the rest
48
Stay together and shoot your way to freedom, god bless, aiyyo
49
[Chorus: ]
50
Aiyyo, I got Dj Babu in the house
51
From the world famous, beat junkies
52
Aiyyo, yo Babs how you feel about this?
53
And this goes out to all the ancestors
54
Especially to my grandmother (??)
55
The foundation, rest in peace
56
Love you grandma
