Rise Godfather of Harlem (Ft. Samm Henshaw)

[Intro]
For we have given all that we have, and it's still not enough

[Verse 1: Samm Henshaw]
Hold up, wait a minute, hold up, wait a minute
There's something I'd like to say here (Mhm)
Don't pretend that you ain't in it, 'cause Lord knows we're winnin'
You've all got a part to play, yeah
They want us in our position, I got a proposition
Don't turn and look away, nah (Mhm)
You're awake, but are you woke? Actin' like this life's a joke
All laughs, but you ain't playin', though
This ain't a run-through (Yeah), this ain't no reel (Yeah)
You're slow to love (Yeah), but quick to kill, yeah
Let's learn to teach, just need to feel, yeah
Not trying to preach, just bein' real, yeah

[Chorus: Samm Henshaw]
We will rise, we will rise with the fire in our eyes, yeah, yeah, yeah (Oh, oh)
With no hate in our hearts and the future in our minds, yeah, yeah, yeah (Oh, oh)
No answers with our questions, no question's been forgiven
'Cause everybody knows, it surprise us if we livin'
We will rise, we will rise with the fire in our eyes, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2: Samm Henshaw]
Now that I got your attention, we can all feel the tensions
I got something to say here (Oh, oh, oh)
This theme is so absurd, we've got the letters, not the words
Every day a new parade, yeah
We can hold our signs, we can shake our fists
But we're not allowed to speak, how can we resist?
We've all heard the rumours, we're the product, we're the losers
I'm not tryna preach, but I won't be a consumist
