6
We more than image is often depicted
7
Jealous of business trying to employ our children
8
And destroy our mental everyday we more conditioned
9
To conform to ignorance and ignore wisdom
10
A darker pigment gets you 50 shots and cops acquitted
11
While Mumia dreams of freedom from a cot in prison
12
Knowledge of self helped me understand my origin
13
From Africans to broken families and cotton pickers
14
We all witness pictures of starving children
15
In the mother land, stripped of all its riches
16
It's a dirty game for brothers, the odds against us
17
Beneath the sheets of the clan or politicians
18
Don't care about us or our condition
19
During Katrina Bush was giving us the middle finger

We more than pant saggin ignorance

In fact, spell saggin backwards it's niggas
29
Pick your pants up enhance your appearance it traps us
30
And stereotypes embedded in slaves by masters
31
Didn't want slaves to read, education enhances
32
If the mind is free there's a chain reaction
33
Let's compare slaves to rappers
34
They censor freedom of speech and very few leave with masters
35
He who has nothing is intrigued with status, is a lie
36
I can't believe these rappers
37
A label makes 10 million when your CD's platinum
38
What did you bring home? Did you recoup?
39
Are you mad I understand I'm speaking the truth
40
Stop hurting our women and deceiving the youth

You're bringing us down worse than the media do

But we expect that from them, we down need it from you

Tell me that you know, that you know, that you know that you're more than this

Keep moving
48
I'm un-apologetically the color god intended
49
Indeed, I'm unique melanin underneath ebony
50
Is a blessing ya my disparity is feared by people who lack clarity
51
To understand and weep
52
Brilliant resilience spiritual beautiful people
53
The original buildings and teachers of Kemet in Egypt
54
Hieroglyphics depicted us who lighten the features
55
Why do images of Jesus rival biblical teachings
56
And gentrify like the city limits, unclearly different from the Uptown of Big L or Bed-Stuy Biggie lived in
57
Barley existences it's modern segregation displacement of color faces whose rent has risen
58
They say that eyes don't lie, I bear witness
59
It's time to respect our elders and care for our children-
60
Deserve better than we had and a clearer understanding of knowledge of self
61
I'm here to help prepare you
62
Keep moving forward, don't let nobody bring you down
63
It's up to you what happens here on out (here on out)
64
You are keen intellect creative being
65
Tell me that you know, that you know, that you know that you're more than this
66
Keep moving
