Verse 2
Am
Why every Indian want to be the chief?
Feed a man 'til he full and he still want beef
Am
Give me grief, try to tief off my piece
Why for you to increase, I must decrease?
Am
If I treat you kindly,
does it mean that I'm weak?
You hear me speak
and think I won't take it to the streets
Am
I know enough cats
that don't turn the other cheek
But I try to keep it civilized like Menelik
Am
And other African czars,
observing stars with war scars
Get yours in this capitalistic system
Am
So many caught or got bought
you can't list them
How you gonna idolize the missing?
To survive is to stay alive
Am
in the face of opposition
Even when they comin', gunnin'
I stand position
Am
L's known the mission since conception
Let's free the people from deception
If you looking for the answers
then you gotta ask the questions
Am
And when I let go,
my voice echoes through the ghetto
Sick of men trying to pull strings like Geppetto
Am
Why black people
always be the ones to settle?
Pre-chorus 2
March through these streets like Soweto, uh
C
Like Cain and Abel,
G
Caesar and Brutus

Men who lack conscience

To themselves

A friend once said, and I found to be true

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad

This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
