mmhmm, let’s go
we’re creating something for the future
to look at and be proud of
we’re the cultural amb-ssadors
the dynamic shifters
the builders
the legacy makers
the paradigm changers
and for tomorrow they’ll hear about us
and know exactly who we are

[uxl]

yo, look
paint from the same palate
forged from the same mallet (forged)
kings and the queens
all from the same palace
picked from the same ballot
torn from the same fabric (torn)
different worlds
clash on the same planet (clash)
same shoes same genes
not the same placards
cos i believe you alive when you implanted
parenthood is sacred
even when you ain’t planned it (yup)
and the pain won’t stop with a pain tablet (yeah)
listen, i read scripture that is written
with the pen of people oppressed and slave driven (yeah)
there’s irony in us callin’ it “white man” religion
when we the ones shoutin’ down colonialism
think about it (think)
language is power so don’t talk smack (yeah yeah)
we got the same roots
everyday my thought’s black
this is why i knod in your direction as i walk past
and y’all look at me and half smile as you knod back (back)
yeah, sit with me, we’ll exchange energy
no hennessy, water no get enemy (fela!)
then again bartenders tend to listen in
on the most sobering conversations (yup)
we just got differing traditions my man
i just wonder what you think you standin’ on (yeah)
how we really gon’ battle for equality
battling the one who made us equal
p-ss it on

mmmmmm
p-ss it p-ss it on
p-ss it p-ss it on o
p-ss it p-ss it on

they go know when i don’
p-ss it p-ss it
p-ss it p-ss it on
p-ss it p-ss it on o
p-ss it p-ss it on (p-ss it p-ss it on)
they go know when i don’ p-ss it o
p-ss it p-ss it on
p-ss it p-ss it on o
p-ss it p-ss it on (p-ss it p-ss it on)

they go know when i don’ p-ss it
they go know when i don’ p-ss it
they go know when i don’ p-ss it o
they go know when i don’ p-ss it

look, uh
everybody talk about what the king said (king)
but n0body want the crown that the king wear
cross or a rifle, p-wns move one square
white moves first but the black queen don’t fear (don’t fear)
so many supermen walkin’ bout (yeah)
x-ray vision what i’m talkin’ bout (yeah)
they can see that we ain’t their kin
but their x rays never penetrate fair skin
even though this a land that they are guests in (what?)
krypton empire still expandin’ (oh)
hit em with the green stone, history facts
black poverty could be this could be that
if my eyes rolled more i’d be blind as a bat (yeah yeah)
humph, it’s like they is tryna be wack
but you watch vimeo and they tryna be black (black)
i need a cup of tea, let me try to relax (yup)
it’s the absence of the older male (nah)
i bet the finance ain’t handled well (nah)
there’s more doing crime
so there’s more in jail
i guess brown cultures are just doomed to fail, yup (yeah yeah)
cause and effect look alike (yeah)
who’s got it twisted
who has it right? (yeah)
they say it’s the past
so for what do we fight?
blank canvases tend to be white
p-ss it on

p-ss it p-ss it
p-ss it p-ss it on
p-ss it p-ss it on o
p-ss it p-ss it on
they go know when i don’ p-ss it o (p-ss it p-ss it)
p-ss it p-ss it on
p-ss it p-ss it on o
p-ss it p-ss it on (p-ss it p-ss it on)
they go know when i don’

none of my zones gon’ comfort me (no)
i look both ways ‘fore i cross the street (look)
most look one way
safe as can be
life is a toll road homie pay the fee (pay the fee)
and to everybody who’s prayed for me
can’t promise i won’t make you ashamed of me
cos i spent thirty years staring straight into a mirror
still tryna figure out who is facin’ me
but yo
but after so long i’ve been fighting fires
finally i’m finna hang up my helmet
cos i’ve seen what they’re tryna burn
yeah i’ve seen the pain
and god knows i’ve felt it (yeah i’ve felt it)
blessed are those who make peace
but we need a bit of chaos in the recipe
so at best i’mma th-rn in the side
and at worst homie i’mma let em molotov’s fly (i’mma let em fly)
pro black, pro christ, no apologies
anti colonial
anti monopolies
pro immigration
anti policy that puts the creation below the economy (yup)
the change i pursue is a marathon
can’t see the finish line
still gotta carry on (carry on)
ideas are inept til you act upon
and knowledge ain’t power ‘til you p-ss it on
haha

[azubuike]

for we know what needs to be done
because we have the knowledge
and it’s been given to us
and it’s our duty to strengthen it
and p-ss it on to those around us
who didn’t know before
