Come Together

[Intro: Malcolm X] Of being in complete unity with each other, harmony with each other. And not letting the man maneuver us in fighting one another. Long as we practice brotherhood among ourselves and then others who want to practice brotherhood with us, we're for that. But I don't think that we should run around trying to love somebody who doesn't love us [Hook] One thing I can tell you is you got to be free [Verse 1: Black Thought] I was, uh, too young to care when my father died I had to put one in the air when my mama died Both victims of completely different homicides It makes me wonder sometimes, damn, how I'ma die I can't shake these memories, I'm haunted by If it bring a tear to your eye then I apologize When every child is born another shot is fired How many hours is left before the clock expire? I'm bothered by it, and placing the bricks instead of sound Wondering how to move a nation of millions Because they ain't felt the bass in a minute Every minute hip hop is ever so patiently waiting to get it Take a look into the sky and see 'em scraping the buildings Or look into the mirror, see the face of resilience My heart and frustrations is in it, when I spit it it's vintage So molded into my own image, yeah [Hook] Come together One thing I can tell you is you got to be free (Move a nation of millions, it ain't hard to tell) One thing I can tell you is you got to be free (Move a nation of millions, it ain't hard to tell) One thing, one thing I can tell you is you got to be free (Move a nation of millions, it ain't hard to tell) One thing I can te-te-tell you is you got to be free (Move a nation of millions) Come together right now (Bri-bri-bridging the gap, yeah) Come together right now (Bri-bri-bridging the gap, yeah) Come together right now (Bri-bri-bridging the gap, yeah) Come together right now (Bri-bri-bridging the gap, yeah) [Verse 2: Zumbi] Uh, a sick cycle where we living revolved Like we're one step away from forever sleeping tomorrow Fighting for pieces of hog, my [?] is scarred Hard to be godbody, niggas body your squad Go against all laws, turn up the pressure from the neck up It ain't all good, the hood really need a checkup The blood and the veins, it seems it long ago changed All addicted to riches, fame is a cold game Dopeboys and rappers, that's the role models My soul feel hollow, there is no tomorrow We need to come together like X and King 'Fore we live another day all vexed in [?] I got a sixth sense, homie, 'cause I'm blessed with this Roots crew and Zion I Official messengers But when the stress it get too much it might bust Put the pain down, player, get together with us, yeah [Outro] Come together right now
