Mansa Obi - Moor lyrics

[WARNING: Due to the nature of this content some may find it offensive.] . Dr. John Henrik Clarke: "Islam was the handmaiden of Arab imperialism Christianity was the handmaiden of European imperialism The Hebrew faith was the handmaiden of a concept called the chosen people Now if god is kind and god is merciful, and god has no stepchildren. He won't choose one over the other And, to say he chose some people, you're making him a bigot And, to say that he's endorsed enslavement of one people over the other you're making him accessory to murder The Arabs used Islam to rationalize their slavery and imperialism. The Europeans used Christianity to rationalize their slavery and imperialism. Who are you kidding about friends in the world? Damn it if you want a friend look in the mirror!" Chorus Lately I been wanting more Than working in the field all day And, lately I've been searching for A throne that I've never known Cause' something doesn't feel right Working in the fields all day baby Because something doesn't feel right Lately I've been wanting moor Verse I This that Cairo before lies told Four Moors with no blindfolds In the right direction Try and white me out, but couldn't wipe me out; Because the truth's deadly Highest power, high performance Thank god we on, and living in the moment Got the flippers cloning, but they couldn't clone us Probably because they ain't knowing This that way back in the days flow Pharaoh before slaves flow This that F.U.C.K what they said flow You can keep the scraps we want way Moor This that fight the power and we strapped with facts, cease the peace to get the castle's back Paid our dues and this is tax season, fresh out of the oven with the black season Black Caesars, black pizza (piece of) history enbreaded'(embedded) in my essence In the presence of Kimetics, couldn't get it tried to dead it But could never swear it gotta be the heavens This that St. Stephen's, St. Maurice Queen Edith, Constantine And the pictures that were hid Biblioteca Madrid This that ish you never hear so I gotta make it clear They was all black and race is just a fib you was taught that It's just in your head cause we all black and it's all facts We originate from Africa It's the truth that's indisputable It's just physical illusions But, subconsciously you knew it bet you feel it in the music when the spirit gets you moving Chorus Lately I been wanting more Than working in the field all day And, lately I've been searching for A throne that I've never known Cause' something doesn't feel right Working in the fields all day baby Because something doesn't feel right Lately I've been wanting moor Dr. John Henrik Clarke: "There are over a billion Africans on the face of this planet! Why are you buying third grade junk from third grade people thinking you can't make it? Why don't you at least make a safety pin to hold your child's diaper together? Who has programmed your mind into thinking you can't make a car? The first man that made a car had never seen one previously The Japanese bought cars bought locomotives broke them down and studied them; and had a Japanese technician produce each piece and had a much better train than the one they copied from All knowledge in the world belongs to everybody in the world All knowledge in the world belongs to everybody in the world Who has programmed our minds into a**uming that we cannot run a nation? And run it well? The main thing imperialism did, slavery and imperialism They removed African people from the respectful commentary of history and they tell them, something they are telling them All organized religions are guilty of this I favor none of it Because Africa didn't need any of it I'm saying African belief systems properly understood is ten times better than Judaism, Christianity and Islam And better for the Africans Now you might have some romance with one of these religions I have no romance with any of them I have a romance with reality and truth and the chips may fall after I tell it
