MASTER PLAN
(inspired by Talib Kweli)
across the globe
my people know
the suffering of struggle
our generation is a continuation
of slow progression
our nation is hungry for liberation
and we have only begun to fight.
ONE MIND
ONE LOVE
ONE ACTION
ONE GOD
blessing us with the miracle
of one movement
our foot soldiers are brave warriors
willing to die for the cause
of Black People rising towards sovereignty.
we are an army of resistance
keeping blindness at a distance
and Self-determination consistent
as we sing redemption songs
to our Ancestors drums
feeling the Nubia/Kush/Khamit spirit
pulsating through the universe
the beautiful blood of the Motherland
coursing through our veins
MY PEOPLE RISE
to cultivate the strength of the Original Man
resting deep in our core
we've fought the battle/lets conquer the war
conjure the fortitude of our ancient family
keeping their humanity through
The Middle Passage
Jim Crow
Nonstop Police Brutality
and cease our children being raised in slave mentality.
AFRIKA CRIES OUT
and as Her child born away from home
I'm ready to shout my battlecry
We all must be a footprint in the sand
Every single Black child woman and man
Grab a hold of each other/take a soul by the hand
We're marching into
With Freedom as our master plan.
