Jamila Woods - In My Name lyrics

[Verse 1] I like to make you wash your mouth before you talk about me Keep my name out your mouth cause you can't handle the flee Don't cut your tongue on my syllables Bet you need a syllabus to teach you how my vowels sound It's a long "i" baby, but your tongue too lazy Needa fix your face and say your grace Before you pray to me [Chorus] In my name, in my name, in my name, in my name In my name, in my name, in my name, in my name [Verse 2] Somebody better come get they cousin Shawty, honey, sweetie, I swear that wasn't What my momma gave me Let me speak more slowly [Chorus] In my name, in my name, in my name, in my name In my name, in my name, in my name, in my name [Spoken: Assata's Daughters] It is our duty to fight for our freedom (It is our duty to fight for our freedom) It is our duty to win (It is our duty to win) We must love each other and support each other (We must love each other and support each other) We have nothing to lose but our chains (We have nothing to lose but our chains)
