Exodus begins with a triumphant story of a man Chapter 2, verse 1, listen closely, you'll understand the plan Pharaoh, in the heat of his anger, plotted to destroy The babies from Israel's belly, let the girls live but kill every boy But a child named Moses was one that God chose to be The vessel sent into Egypt to deliver Israel and set the captives free, ya see God took a nobody, made him a somebody Told Pharaoh (What'd he tell him?) to let my people go
(No matter what you do to me) (No matter what you say to me) (No matter what you think of me) What you gonna say? (Let my people go)
(No matter what you do to me) That's right (No matter what you say to me) That's right (No matter what you think of me) (Let my people go)
It's 1999, and unfortunately we still ain't free, ya see Ya think racism is a ghost like Casper Look what just happened down in Jasper I ask you why the babies dying and daddies crying From the east side to the west side To the south side, genocide You can't hide from the fact All the modern day Pharaohs I attack And I stack The knowledge inside my mind Packs heat like a nine The power from above I find Rise up, my people, 'cause it's time Come on, come on
(No matter what you do to me) That's right (No matter what you say to me) (No matter what you think of me) What you gonna tell 'em now? (Let my people go)
(No matter what you do to me) (No matter what you say to me) That's right (No matter what you think of me) (Let my people go)
(No matter what you do to me) (No matter what you say to me) Oh yeah (No matter what you think of me) (Let my people go)
(No matter what you do to me) That's right (No matter what you say to me) No matter what you say (No matter what you think of me) No matter what you think of me (Let my people go)

Check it out The moral of the story is while you playing games trying to survive As long as you selling that mess, doing that mess, you keeping Pharaoh alive Don't hide from the matter Whose pockets are really getting fatter? Some churches are quick to say Amen But they ain't that quick to help a man I don't understand If that's your brother, love your brother Know your brother, show your brother No matter what color Don't hate one and love the other My people, victory is yours and Pharaoh's defeated If you don't know the book, read it
(No matter what you do to me) (No matter what you say to me) What you say to me (No matter what you think of me) Oh oh no (Let my people go)
(No matter what you do to me) No matter what you do to me (No matter what you say to me) What you say to me (No matter what you think of me) No matter what you say to me (Let my people go)
(Let my people, let my people) Pharaoh, can you hear me? (Let my people, let my people) From the white house to the black house (Let my people) From New York to L.A. (let my people) Let my people go (Let my people)
This song is dedicated to everybody who's still in bondage By the system, by the powers that be Break those chains of ignorance Recognize who you are and whose you are And if you don't know Now you know Can I get a witness? I said, can I get a witness? Can I get one witness? Come on I figured Let's get out of Egypt, come on, come on Let the band play Let the band play Let the band play That's right That's right That's right That's right
