[Intro]
Woah, oh
[Verse 1]
Who's that man I see
Underneath the hanging tree?
He looks just like me
So tell me, am I really free?
Coulda been my mother, crying for my brother
And everybody, everybody, everybody's praying for peace
But who's gonna protect us from the police?
[Chorus]
Keep these chains off me
'Cause I don't wanna be another seed underneath the hanging tree
Pray for me
Lord, don't let me be another seed underneath the hanging tree
[Verse 2]
Brands on our bodies (The color of fruit)
Color of purple fruit (Shoo-doot)
Power of the black dollar (Black dollars, black dollars)
Spent on designers that don't give a damn about you
I, I wonder sometimes
Am I just living to die? (Living to die)
I don't wanna die
'Cause the way they do my kind, I just wanna cry
Woah, oh
[Verse 1]
Who's that man I see
Underneath the hanging tree?
He looks just like me
So tell me, am I really free?
Coulda been my mother, crying for my brother
And everybody, everybody, everybody's praying for peace
But who's gonna protect us from the police?
[Chorus]
Keep these chains off me
'Cause I don't wanna be another seed underneath the hanging tree
Pray for me
Lord, don't let me be another seed underneath the hanging tree
[Verse 2]
Brands on our bodies (The color of fruit)
Color of purple fruit (Shoo-doot)
Power of the black dollar (Black dollars, black dollars)
Spent on designers that don't give a damn about you
I, I wonder sometimes
Am I just living to die? (Living to die)
I don't wanna die
'Cause the way they do my kind, I just wanna cry
