Justice
Lyrics by M. , G. McKenize and A. Yakini
What we want what we need
Don’t impede plant a seed
For justice
What we want what we need
Take a stand intercede
For justice
Give ‘em what they want
Even if they not aware yet
Feelin’ like children on long trips
Are we there yet?
Dealing with bias for millennia
Still ain’t fair yet
Doc, I’m tryin’ to get to Maat
And wouldn’t dare let
Petty limitation, temptation derail my love train
Aim for equality opposite of the gov game
Where it ain’t constructed on justice
For them it’s just ice
To keep the people slippin’
Feeling like it’s just life
For when equality, poverty in the balance
Could logically be a part of reality like a challenge
Well obviously the decay and turmoil
Just the symptoms of the unjust system
Where the people the victims
Look, we take the stand over here
And plant the seed too
Nobody gave the order
Do it ‘cause we need to
Naturally the ages of civilizations fade
But we working with the spade baby
Justice on the way
What we want what we need
Don’t impede plant a seed
For justice
What we want what we need
Take a stand intercede
For justice
Ridin’ the melody
Black leather seats
Tryin’ to get a scope on life through the windshield
Like windmills making these revolutions
Black fists in the midst of conflict
Tryin’ to find some resolution
Fine tunin’
Through the youth I’m watchin’ time movin’
Reflectin’
Music and life is congruent
Workin’ like a slave
Money gotta be made
But ain’t no benefits
We overtaxed underpaid
Government bailouts
Keep corporations open
Malls sell out
Small businesses closin’
High price low quality food
Pesticides and clonin’
Takin’ this food for thought
Turnin’ to food for growin’
Ain’t no justice
Living in the devil’s clutches
And we do greater
When we thinkin’ great of us
So we plant the seeds through the raps and beats
Map the streets
Study, practice, teach
What we want what we need
Don’t impede plant a seed
For justice
What we want what we need
Take a stand intercede
For justice
