letra de sanford city freestyle - history project - dred scott

ey yo
alright look

i’m here to set a precedent
upon this nation of superficial essence
i am the dreaded d. scott
and i will not be owned nor bought
so i will go to the supreme court to fight to be free
and make this land full of equality

i represent the population of slaves
to them i appear to be brave
‘cuz i hopped the free border
from slave state to the leaders of the free world order

after i married in minnesota
we transformed from free to slavery due to the slave quota
while we were under the jurisdiction of doc emerson
we became slaves in a free state from the word of a us veteran

my independence sure means a lot to me
so i tried to sue him and send ‘em to the penitentiary
“but they told me that times now are not as they were
when the former decisions on this subject were made”, but i set to deter
but i got shot down in missouri state court
even with some nationwide abolitionist support

after one more attempt at it
my owner kicked the bucket
so i went after the product of his consort
and our trial got pushed to the federal court
however the judge relied on missouri law
and sanford won suit and exclaimed with a nice “hurrah!”
but in my eyes this was not the last straw
‘cuz i’m appealing, without any sense of withdraw

our case went to the supreme
and the media’s coverage went to the extreme
and my case was prepared to perfection
but it was during the year of presidential re-election
and even though i lived in a free state
it was overlooked due to presidential bait
your precious supreme court was caught up in buchanan’s persuasion
and my life remained under control of a caucasian

dred scott v. sanford
goes down as one of the worst supreme court answers
‘cuz “no rights which the white man was bound to respect”
this whole country’s civil rights need to be checked

and as we continue
with this flowing lyrical interview
taney, welcome back to reality
what’s your opinion on morality
say it with some formality
and represent the correct american nationality
so chief taney, whatcha got to say
‘cuz i’m spitting word is bond
‘cuz this unjust retainment
is the enslavement of americans
was the product of your friendship with that buchanan
while you boys were getting high on some heroin
