What if I told you that I am not black
And you are not white?
That's a societal construct
Created to divide us
Love is the light that guide us
The devil makes spotlights to blind us
Some fear the melanin inside us
And only the better men unite us
Noble what he drew on paper
All he do is tell the truth
Spell the proof, troops gone rappel the roof
Sip the juice, here to Belarus
Our Nation is Moorish, we ancient and flourished
Mastered the oceans, we came with the currents
Natives with Olmec blood in our vein
800 years before they traded the slaves
That name means people who Slavic
And we ain't Ukrainian or Baltic
I'm woke and I'm conscious
It spoke to my soul, so I broke from the nonsense
Timbuktu, the world's Oldest University
College perversity turned kings into worker bees
Died, rose again in a three-day span
Trying to get ahead of cheese like a Green Bay fan
We don't tan, made by the equator
In the upside-down skin shade is why you hate us
Thy will be done, shine in the night when it look like none
Midnight sun
Streams of consciousness, moral compasses
The night's inside you, the gods will guide you
I'm woke, I want the smoke, thoughts provoke
The conflict until the holy war is won
And the word's a weapon, a verbal veteran
But he can't speak unless his master lets him
The winter's hot and summer's cold
Don't be surprised tonight if you see the sun
Sililanga siyakhanya (Yeah, we are, we are)
Ezinzulwini zobumnyama (We are, we are)
Bantu benyani bokuqala (Yeah, we are, we are)
Kuphila kwethu lithamsanqa (We are, we are)
What if i told you that you are not Latino?
And you are not Asian?
Latin is a dead language
We all mixed through invasion
Root of all civilization you find us
They use miseducation to bind us
Naturally strong we survivors
Truth is the light to remind us
High school teach true lies
The first Britain was a black man with blue eyes
Cheddar man, that's genetics
Rewriting history and that's pathetic
We Kemetic, first astronomers
You pushed us, bad energy, that's kinetic
Culture became races, called it ethnic
What is ethics? Asad in Syria killing all your brethren
We Nephilim, study 120 lessons like the X-Men
Red fez to worshiping dead pres
First Hebrew tribes had a head full of dreads
And the letter J don't exist
The children of Yahweh stay lit
The devil is a lie, Lucifer false light
Can't claim to be a Christian and still be Alt-Right
Love makes us better
Only way we get through this is together
So I call my brother Sun 'cause he shine like one
Radiating the darkness, the midnight sun
Streams of consciousness, moral compasses
The night's inside you, the gods will guide you
I'm woke, I want the smoke, thoughts provoke
The conflict until the holy war is won
And the word's a weapon, a verbal veteran
But he can't speak unless his master lets him
The winter's hot and summer's cold
Don't be surprised tonight if you see the sun
Sililanga siyakhanya (Yeah, we are, we are)
Ezinzulwini zobumnyama (We are, we are)
Bantu benyani bokuqala (Yeah, we are, we are)
Kuphila kwethu lithamsanqa (We are, we are)
Thina singumoya, oyingcwele kholwa

Apho sikhona, uthox'ukhona
