About the Artist
Lyrics
A mi name Swnkah, comin' live Kingston fight, black roots, youths from [?] Big up RZA, Mathematics, all Wu-Tang Clan A we come for Chinatown to Babylon If I put my fist through the face of a racist Smack 'em tasteless Would I face three cases in court, locked in places Or shackled to a seat of a bus, a hundred of us Life in America shouldn't be so tough We got western civilization got me fighting for my civil rights After fighting scores of war, we still fight for our civil rights To be equal citizens with equal opportunity Equal chance to advance and uplift our communities But instead we getting shot in the head Like a black man life ain't worth a loaf of bread "Stop or I shoot," you stop, they still shoot Buck, buck, buck they stomp you out with steel boots Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? They trying to distract us from our practice And shackle us up, mentally retract us backwards Attack us like the prophet on the way to Damascus It's like we huddle up, had control of the ball, let 'em sack us Now they overtax us as if they want to collapse us Don't be diluted by this foolishness 30 years old man still want nothing do with this Try to find a career and a beer on the weekend And a freak he could take to the crib on the weekend SUV, XM, heat, only plays the Weeknd Only wanna fuck you 5 AM with no tweeting Honey's 25 should be working but she's twerking Nobodies tripping she could make money from stripping And I'm sitting in the back sipping my 'yac Can't help but thinking that "What does her father think of that?" Probably because I got a daughter I heard Money Mayweather, he makes it rain without water He dropped 50 G's at a strip club near the border A dozen women crawling on all fours up Woah, hey, you should've saw her You should've took that money to a college campus But then again, I guess momma needed some Pampers But from my view, these wizards need some pampering Not unless men stop looting and tamperin' with the essence Even with a lack of substance And she wonders why, why, why she can't keep her husband? We come to unite people Every color, every race Every shape, every face All around the nation No discrimination Peace and love 'present From generation to generation Jah, not take it no more Better know RZA, Wu-Tang Clan, take it to there (Oh, why, why?) It's getting realer Streets gettin' hotter, I could feel it Who am I to put a gun to another I'm just trying to show love to my brother Hands up, I just pray to God I make it out (Stop killin' youth 'dem) Is my life not enough, am I hard to love If it's America we trusted each other knock me down And I'm just trying to live it up Only one life to live and I ain't trying to give it up Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why? Oh, why, why, why, why?
