Hell Razah - Chain Gang lyrics

[Richard Pryor sample] I was on the Chain Gang... Chain Gang, Chain Gang Always on about the Chain Gang... man, the Chain Gang That was a hell of a thing [Intro: Hell Razah] Renaissance Child.. dedicated to Nat Turner A true Maccabean rebel... yo, let me tell ya this story [Hell Razah] They had us handcuffed on them sea ships, since the days of Egypt Now it's sitting in a racist precent Black Hebrews from centuries ago, young Negros With dark skin and afros, who built castles White halo's on black Anglo's, who were sold Like Joseph, by his own brother, later on, to free his own mother We only suffer cuz the God love us Give it to the hands of blood s**ers A lost tribe that was undiscovered Until the British came and bumrushed us What you think my desert eagle's for? That's why Moses told Pharaoh, 'let his people go' Until this day, that same evil grows From oversears, the Ceasars, the black CO's In the prison cell, living hell, naked and cold You feel the chills when you hear them keyholes All your freedom get closed, in the end, we all reap what we sow [Hook: Hell Razah] It go, Deuteronomy 28, verse 48 "We was a chain gang, split up, and brought to these states" [Hell Razah] Children of Zion, was choked, by them yokes of Ion Now they screaming, let bygones be bygones and burnt icons Before they white washed, everything bronze Told the Israelites, they took away they right to bare arms Johnny Hawkins, captured us, and started auctions Back when cowboy spurs were for birth abortions Queen Elizabeth, she sponsored and she help fund it And we was slaughtered like some cattle, that been hunted through the jungle Kept in dungeons in London in the fifteen hundreds While they waited for the slaves, the ship Mayflower blundered Now if a riot was the lies, it'll still be genocide Black on black crime, kept us falling behind Involuntery servitude, had us serving them food A holocaust of the last j**s, they should of been sued Left our fathers in the solitude, sharper than spoons On the chain gang singing about poverty blues [Hook 2X] [Hook: Hell Razah] It go, chain gang, same things, same faces Same names, same hell, same flames Chain gang, chain gang, same names Same faces, same hell, same flames [Richard Pryor sample] There was one thing about the chain gang... It couldn't move fast... if it couldn't move fast It couldn't get in trouble... [Outro: Hell Razah] J.A.
