Joell Ortiz - Modern Day Slavery songtekst

Je score:

(feat. Immortal Technique, DJ GIJOE)



DJ GI Joe rock that..



The 13th amendment



(...they say nothing wrong

A change is gonna come -

You know and I know

You know that I know

I know that you know that something's gotta change is gonna come ...)



(bridge)

First you clean his hands from top to bottom

Grand afferents then wash him, then you go pick the cotton

Listen y'all I'm tired man, I swear (I've been running)

For so long trying to be strong with you (I've been running)

I'm exhausted (Ohh yeah)

My feet hurt (I don't...)

Wanna run no more (I don't....)

Wanna run no more (I don't know what's a bed)

They said (a change is going)

WHEN (a change is going)

WHEN (a change is going (...) everyday)



(Joell Ortiz:)

Ain't nothing changed except the chains

That restraining our physical frame

Mentally we still living the same

Its lock down

They knock down the Towers to raise tax

Anything they burn we pay back

I live in the hood; you'll never bump into Pat Seajack

But we spin the wheel every time we chill

Cuz cops hate blacks, and Hispanics they draw gats

And just slam it before the ask where your hand is

I don't see how a wallet can be mistaken for a cannon

~So please don't let em play us no more

In everyway I'm ready, willing, and able to war

Like any day I could pop I'd be in the front

Like, please let the force be with me in this pump

Housing want me to work cuz I'm still on my mom's lease

Threatening to raise the rent if I don't pick up them park leaves

Ain't nothing in this world for free

But somehow they got us fooled that this world is free



(chorus: Joell Ortiz)

THIS IS MODERN DAY SLAVERY

YOU SEE (yes)

CARRY I.D. (yes)

WATER IS A FEE (yes)

THIS AIN'T HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE MAN (I've been running)

For so long trying to be strong with you (I've been running)

I'm exhausted (Ohh yeah)

My feet hurt (I don't...)

Wanna run no more (I don't....)

Wanna run no more (I don't know what's a bed)

They said (a change is going)

WHEN (a change is going)

WHEN (a change is going (...) everyday)



(Immortal Technique:)

Our people are the product of genocide and slavery

Everything in the ghetto was how it was made to be

Designed in a process, Prison Industrial Complex

Niggaz transformed into numbers and objects

We pay the devil rent for living in hell

Cuz the projects was built on the spot where Lucifer fell

Incarcerated knowledge heavy weight (Heavy Nigga)

Every black man should read through the Romany Chapter 28

~Cursed in the city like we're cursed in the field

Cursed on the border, and cursed by the New World Order

Our sons and daughters were stolen by another people

_ end of the Earth, land of the Eagle

This is the sequel to the prophecy

Freedom when peaceful then violent is my philosophy

I built an army, now I'm gonna build a nation

The foundation of a new civilization

And overthrow the plantation



(chorus: Immortal Technique)

MODERN DAY SLAVERY SEE? (yes)

IT WAS DESIGNED TO BE (yes)

PATRIOT ACT 3 (yes)

Just wait young nigga you'll see (I've been running)

For so long, my people been strong, but yo (I've been running)

I'm exhausted (Ohh yeah)

My heart hurts (I don't...)

But I'm gunning them more (I don't....)

But I'm gunning them more (Fuck them, niggas!)

I said, we gotta make em (a change is going)

We gotta make em (a change is going)

Quick motherfucker (lock and load)



Immortal Technique
