letra de my people free - royce da 5'9''

[intro]
(let my people go)
(let my people go)

[verse 1: ashley sorrell]
oh, first off, free juan, free brian, and free jig
behind bars, doin’ bids, locked up on “he say, she say” sh-t
separated from their kids, the system’s sick
we guilty before we can prove our innocence
because it’s lucrative
the more bodies in cells, the more they can make sales
to get more sales, it makes no sense
and recklin’ the major detention center
won’t give their inmates no heat or medical attention
they lie to the masses and downplay their livin’ conditions
but steady, they buildin’ more prison cells
and increasin’ college tuition, closin’ down neighborhood schools
they strip away tools, we’re still gon’ go teachin’ them sh-t they can use
when it’s all said and done

[chorus: ashley sorrell & royce da 5’9″]
ring, ding, dong
ring, di-ding, ding-ding, dong
the bell is ringin’, the clock is tickin’
we need to change the way we livin’ and how we thinkin’
ring, ding, dong (uh)
ring, di-ding, ding-ding, dong
to our people on high positions
ain’t assistin’ bein’ a house n-gga
how you a public figure only worried ’bout your figure?
free (that’s real spirit, ash)
let my people free (lord, physically, spiritually)
let my people—

[post-chorus: royce da 5’9″]
i had a nightmare the other night
that all of my prayers were denied
when you look toward a savage nation for humanity
which one do you want more, the validation or reality?
let my people free

[verse 2: royce da 5’9″]
yeah, let my people free
i rap for the night big l and big and pac got k!lled, uh
i know some street n-ggas that’s real
i know some regular n-ggas who just as real
some legends who never popped that steel
street n-ggas who rap as ill, real life, they not that ill
n-ggas with record deals, real life, they contract k!ll
n-ggas who k!ll to survive, n-ggas who k!ll just to k!ll
a lot of n-ggas probably want you to die just ’cause you’re dressed to k!ll (survive that sh-t)
your final day might be the day that you finally made it
only gucci we acknowledge around this way is radric davis
only thing fly around this way, hollow tips, i dodge that sh-t
gave my n-gga three to five for marijuana and legalized that sh-t

[chorus: ashley sorrell]
ring, ding, dong
ring, di-ding, ding-ding, dong
the bell is ringin’, the clock is tickin’
we need to change the way we livin’ and how we thinkin’
uh, ring, ding, dong
ring, di-ding, ding-ding, dong
to our people on high positions
ain’t assistin’ bein’ a house n-gga
how you a public figure only worried ’bout your figure?
free (free)
let my people free
let my people—

[outro: royce da 5’9″]
my appreciation goes out to
preachers of islam, david banner, derrick grace, mike eric dyson

k!ller mike, jay-z, dave chappelle, jemele hill
and a special shout out and thank you to ice t and ice cube
for putting your platform on the line
so we could say whatever we want on our platform
you are appreciated
