[Talib Kweli]The proudStand tall or don't stand at all, c'monUhh, yeahBreak it downWhat we do?
[Chorus]We survive, it's more than prideWe stay alive, ready to ride
[Chorus] - repeat through intro
[Intro: Talib Kweli]One two, one two yoAlright.. put it down yoJune 21, 2001Timothy McVeigh is executedAnd the country breathe a sigh of reliefGoodness prevails over evil, it seemsSomehow when he's gone, we feel saferLittle do we know
[Verse One]Today the paper say Timothy McVeigh's in hellSo everything's okay and all must be wellI remember Oklahoma when they put out the blazeAnd put Islamic terrorist bombing, on the front pageIt's like saying only gays get AIDS, propagandaLike saying the problem's over when they locked that man upWrong! It's just the beginning, the first inningBattle for America's soul, the devil's winningThe President is Bush, the Vice President's a DickSo a whole lot of fuckin is what we gon' getThey don't wanna raise the babies so the election is fixedThat's why we don't be fuckin with politicsThey bet on that, parents fought and got wet for thatHosed down, bit by dogs, and got blacks into house arrest for thatIt's all good except for that - we still poorMoney, power and respect is what we kill for, for real
[Chorus] - repeat through interlude
[Interlude]August 4, 2001A drunken police officer mows down an entire family in BrooklynThe judge lets him go with no bailIt reminds us, of just how worthless our lives are to the justice systemI struggle, to explain the situation to my son, it's hard
[Verse Two]Niggaz with knowledge is more dangerous than than niggaz with gunsThey make the guns easy to get and try to keep niggaz dumbTarget the gangs and graffiti with the Prop 21I already know the deal but what the fuck do I tell my son?I want him livin right, livin good, respect the rulesHe's five years old and he still thinkin cops is coolHow do I break the news that when he gets some sizeHe'll be percieved as a threat or see the fear in they eyesIt's in they job description to terminate the threatSo 41 shots to the body is what he can expectThe precedent is set, don't matter if he follow the lawI know I'll give my son pride and make him swallow it all (damn!)Fuck the pigs! I think the pigs killed Big and 'Pac tooIf they didn't they know who did, they got to!Who they serve and protect, nigga not youCops shot off of ten G's but they got glocks tooLet you protect yourself, or better yet respect yourselfStraight into the hospital is where you gotta check yourselfThey be gettin tips from snitches and rival crewsDoin them favors so they workin for the drug dealers tooJust business enforcers with hate in they holstersShoot you in the back, won't face you like a soldierKurt Loder asked me what I say to a dead cop's wifeCops kill my people everyday, that's life
[Chorus] - repeat through final interlude
