Echoes Of...

[Verse 1] Respond to pressure Viewed by most as lesser Don't come with fake tears When you chose to play aggressor Got the strength of ancestors Compressed in modern form Ancient text turns to breath when I perform Fire from these vocal chords All these so-called leaders frauds Spitting lies through weaker jaws Want us back where we belong Intellect is mourned by the intelligent Truths once self-evident Replaced by vile rhetoric Content to play a heretic I'm surrounded by my derelicts Forever speak in Dälek The future? We defining it Status quo? Defying it The violated violent The vilest men corrupt so we refuse to keep silent [Chorus] We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale Our people won't kneel We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale Our peoples won't kneel We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale My people won't kneel We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale Trust, we'll never kneel [Verse 2] Born Nonconformist On this Earth to serve notice Hold this weight on broad shoulders Can't explain, they all loathe us It's greed that kills soldiers Precious walls won't hold us We them embers set to smolder Both the eyes and beholder Behavior less stable, now I'm older not the one to seek Closure, kept composure through attacks Compositions set to blast Barely laugh when I'm questioned Life times of lessons, write rhymes as weapons [Chorus] Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale My people won't kneel We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale My people won't kneel We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale Our people won't kneel We the Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm, of Evers Of Hampton, of Seale Trust, we'll never kneel
