Won't ever let 'em tell you that you secondary We survived the genocide, we legendary
So don't you ever hang your head in shame
Even if they stole your culture, even if they stole your name
Even if they stole your skin
Black history will never be in vain
'Cause when they told us to fold, we stood straight
We will never break
I will never hesitate to tell a motherfucker to go and get they facts straight
Pushed us to breaking
Don't understand why we get angry
For the first time in your life, try and understand me
Self determination, which you take for granted
Was stolen from us, so fuck it, I'm not standing for no racist anthem
You were young and you were free
We are locked up young
Then left for dead in custody
And even if we beat a system that's set to fail
We will never escape the fairy tale
That was portrayed by the media since Cook first set sail
I'm nothing, but a savage
Want me to break the cycle and carry my baggage
They like me better if I shut my mouth and kick a ball They like me better if I was a bit more thankful
They like me better if I didn't know the truth
But I refuse to lose another black youth to a nation
That doesn't know the first thing 'bout they black population
So don't you ever hang your head in shame
Even if they stole your culture, even if they stole your name
Even if they stole your skin
Black history will never be in vain
'Cause when they told us to fold, we stood straight
We will never break
I will never hesitate to tell a motherfucker to go and get they facts straight
Pushed us to breaking
Don't understand why we get angry
For the first time in your life, try and understand me
Self determination, which you take for granted
Was stolen from us, so fuck it, I'm not standing for no racist anthem
You were young and you were free
We are locked up young
Then left for dead in custody
And even if we beat a system that's set to fail
We will never escape the fairy tale
That was portrayed by the media since Cook first set sail

Want me to break the cycle and carry my baggage
They like me better if I shut my mouth and kick a ball They like me better if I was a bit more thankful
They like me better if I didn't know the truth
But I refuse to lose another black youth to a nation
That doesn't know the first thing 'bout they black population
