You tricked me!
You fooled me again!
Said Abraham Lincoln freed all men.
From that day forth
no slavery shall exist, but now I see the truth,
it was all a myth.
The 13th Amendment to the Constitution say:
"Neither slavery or involuntary servitude
in any way , shall exist (EXCEPT)
when a party commits a crime, but the law only pertains
to me and mine.
Black people in this country were the only slaves.
So in reality through the constitution
slavery is saved.
13% of the population is true.
But also 90% of the penitentiary too!
According to these numbers I commit
all the crime, and convicted and
sent to prison 90% of the time.
We all know criminal justice is a joke.
That's why you try to blind us
with a lot of black smoke.
Saying black on black crime is
on the rise.
Filling the airwaves and television
with nothing but lies!
Supreme Court told Dred Scott
Blacks aren't citizens.
And the only protection we'll get from whites
is in the prisons.
Civil Rights Movement was nothing but
a joke!
George W. Bush and the Supreme Court
proved that by not counting 28,000
black votes.
From Plantation to penitentiary
that's how far we've come.
Just like moving from the ghettos
into the slums.
Things haven't changed
they just appear that way.
Slavery was never abolished
it's here to stay.
My brothers and sisters
locked behind the wall,
Fathers and Mothers, hear one, hear all!
Unless we fight and exercise our rights,
scream and cry freedom from the
highest heights...
Genocide will prevail like
the darkest of nights!
