Song by Me Phi Me / Jeriko One<br /><br>

Here is the plan to command urban cities<br>

You took me from Africa, said that's the way to fix me<br>

But I want my retribution, revolution is with me<br>

I got my fucking gat, ain't whizzling no Dixie<br>

Like baba-do-ba baba-do-ba baba-do-ba<br>

To my ancestors you'll bow, I want my freedom now<br>

And I ain't doin' no talking, I'm stalking today<br>

You don't keep your peace treaties anyway...<br>

<br>

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth<br>

Now how many eyes and teeth you think I lost, tell the truth<br>

"Maroon!" feeds the hypeness in my psyche tonight<br>

I watch the whites full delight from my second class life<br>

But a land without the first class the second class is right<br>

So I'm eliminating those that think they wanna fight, you might<br>

Should I heed for capital crimes, they'll read 'em<br>

Verdict: "Death!" Sentence: "Freedom!"<br>

<br>

Death to me - Here we diddy come come<br>

If it'll make me free - Here we diddy come come<br>

<br>

Yeah, bring it on, death's about to grow from the seeds you sown<br>

You fertilized it with poverty, you watered it with dope<br>

And harvested it by the guns that betrayed my hope<br>

But scopes came with them guns, now what do I see?<br>

You and your family looking scared of me, you plead mercy<br>

But non-violence has only got me half-way to where I want to be<br>

Now my vengeance will make me free...<br>

<br>

"So don't call me Martin Luther King in my face"<br>

His dream's no reality, fatality's the case<br>

You took away my dignity, I forgot about who I was<br>

"But I never had a dream 'cause..."<br>

Life is something that I think we can no longer share<br>

"...my life is a nightmare"<br>

Death is something I don't fear<br>

America's been my boogieman for 400 years!<br>

<br>

Death to me - Here we diddy come come<br>

If it'll make me free - Here we diddy come come<br>

<br>

I'll ride the pale horse, to you my name is Death<br>

Hell is with me, of course, now it's forced<br>

I'm the messenger of spawns to come, go warn your son<br>

You've battered splattered brains where I run the verdict<br>

Like you he was guilty, I find you wretched and weak<br>

Your evil seeds are filthy, but still we got to go through the motions<br>

I accuse thee of being like a devil in the first degree, let's see...<br>

<br>

Did you steal the land that you're on?<br>

And is my red brother nearly gone?<br>

Took my ancestors from their home<br>

Build your fucking nation on their bones<br>

Atomic rain on the yellow man<br>

Poisoning the air and the land<br>

Narcotics and disease from your hand<br>

Now I can't see nor understand<br>

<br>

Death to me - Here we diddy come come<br>

If it'll make me free - Here we diddy come come<br>

<br>
