Magnetic North - We Will Not Be Moved lyrics

Your rating:


They stigmatize us, the bitterest of poisons

We gotta fight it, no living in avoidance

Ain't you sick of suffering the bitter disappointment?

"Hell Yeah!"

Then join us, trust in our tactics

Prove we ain't moving like rush hour traffic

I've had it, it's madness, I literally shook

Hearing tales never told me in a history book

Caught in misery's hook, seein', faces screamin'

Fathers gettin' slaughtered, daughters raped and beaten

While they are weepin', mothers sitting stunned

Clutchin' on to dog tags that belong to her son

See the fight has begun, but the silence is over…



Yo, this is for my soldiers, this is for my culture

This is for the lives sacrificed on the road to

Peace and prosperity, it's theirs to redeem

Shattered, broken battered, the American Dream…

Nonexistent, we living in a system, consistent

With prisons, restricting your wishes and visions

So listen, we had enough, we had it rough

It all added up and now we rattled up, so



CHORUS:

We will not be moved

Yo, take us to the brink, call us chinks and gooks, but

We will not be moved

I refuse to still live my life confused

We will not be moved

Detachment or action you've got to choose, but

We will not be moved

Generations overdue now we gots to prove



Yo, sometimes I don't know who I am, maybe I'm a freak

Cuz even Asians, man, they be giving me heat

Cuz you see, I'm Chinese, but Chinese I can't speak

I only know English, I guess that makes me unique?

Cuz I get no love, from my own people

I'm a disgrace to my race, a culture-less individual

Plus I ain't the typical, model minority

Being a scholar intellectual ain't my priority

That's me, an ABC with no future

My grades are shitty, even if I had a tutor

I'm not good with the books, that's just my nature

But being Asian and all, must mean I'm a failure



Cuz yo, that is what is expected

If you don't follow the trend, you ain't respected

See even though I'm good at spittin' raps and making tracks

I still get down played, for not being black

As a matter of fact, yo, ain't my skin yellow?

So what am I doin' rapping? I should be playin' the cello

But really though, this is the kind of shit that I fuckin' get

Impressed, I speak English without an accent

C'mon, I'm getting sick, to my dick, with these stereotypes.

But I'mma keep my head up, and just carry the mic

And spit rhymes, till I'm dead, despite if it's right

Cuz this is one chink, that ain't gonna follow the hype.

So follow me and fight and let me hear you say…



CHORUS:

We will not be moved

Yo, take us to the brink, call us chinks and gooks

We will not be moved

I refuse to still live my life so fucking confused, I said

We will not be moved

Detachment or action you've got to choose, say

We will not be moved

Generations overdue now we gots to prove



See, I don't know all the answers

But I have hopes

Don't act like you dying from cancer, tied in ropes

You want shit to change, rearrange your mind first

Then we can begin to lift this curse, cuz we..



Faceless, people living on the

Basis, that we evil in this racist

Place where we taste this

Discrimination

Damn, do I hate this

Man just erase this

Constant complacence

We constantly facing

A storm that's been raging

Inside these rib cages

And why?

Cuz we Asian

We die for this nation

And cry for salvation

For lifetimes and ages..
