Nas - We March as Millions lyrics

"It's much more than a march It will be the beginning of a movement Millions more movement; let us begin" "Tell us what you hear" [Nas] Dear people of the globe I hope that you're in good health By the time my voice hit you I hope it all is well with you My mission is to bail with you Touch upon some real issues Senators, Government Officials Sit at the conference and listen Have a Coke or mineral water and say I'm reminiscing George L. Jackson, Malcolm X last wind when I'm rapping Americans, Africans, Asians, Russians, and Arab men Send your clergymen to journey with Nas from Queens, projects I promise an unforgettable experience Compare me with, Amenhotep get in more debt History was stolen, get in my zone What makes the powers that be, less gangsta then Al Capone? The Rosetta stone was stolen like Chicago was Think I'm a thug?, let's talk about some conquerors Napoleon, Sun Tzu, Genghis Khan Hitler, Edi Amin, Attila the Hun Let's bring back to the cat that invented the gun From the Indians all the way to the Pentagon I'm sitting on Capitol Hill I'm composing this rhyme, guaranteed to make all of y'all feel The beauty that was trapped under siege Believe in yourself you'll be free, take it from me [Voice Samples] "We will not surrender or we will not back down, we keep overacting" ["Throw up a fist for black power" --Nas "Tell us what you hear" "Why do we march? to protest Government policy We march because it's time to fight back We march for education" "Throw up a fist for black power" [--Nas "Tell us what you hear" "Why do we march? we march to save the soul of America" [Nas] The rejection of what's right could mean you in denial It either breaks you or makes you becomes hostile I swallow many lies before tasting the truth In the beginning there was darkness, beautiful you How will life be without night?, no tranquility? No way to get away and rest, no stability? I can't see the sky without the moon and the stars The sunlight blocking everything, the king I'm in raw People worship the Madonna in the shrines in Spain's I'm proud to share the same blood type in veins The holy mother -- the loneliest color remains Can't be tampering, diluted the chains They try make you not want it, make you run from it The wickedest men, want the ebony punished It's so seductive, it's sensuous in my clutches Hot as fire when Moses saw burning bushes So abused and misused and mistreated Naked men wanna get drunk and get weed it People wild when she comes out pull out and party Catch her body, fornicate some start beef Chain reaction cause it's in the air The lost tribe scattered everywhere From the North thru West Hemisphere Scientist and Archaeologist conceal the obvious The dead, living and little children over time of this Obsession, caressing, every essence of magnetism Every organism when it come to it All question about Resurrection and your connection with God It's answered with the beast in your heart [Voice Samples] "We will not surrender or we will not back down, we keep overacting" "Throw up a fist for black power" [--Nas "Tell us what you hear" "Why do we march? to protest Government policy We march because it's time to fight back We march for education" "Throw up a fist for black power" [--Nas "Tell us what you hear" "Why do we march? we march to save the soul of America"
