[Raye] Concrete bricks, bullet proof vests I'm proud of these walls that I built to defend And protect this bold heart This bold heart But the way you marched into my home Not few, big army With the weapon on your arm Yes, you struck straight with your cold heart Your cold heart
[Verse 1: Nas] I'm like Nat, I'm like Nat I'm a man of God but where is Christ at? And even though my name is Nas I am like Nat Is this me declaring war? White flags I now know why I was even born To strike back A full moon up in the sky, that's a sign that It's time to get my liberation, the perfect configuration It's the birth of a nation, midwife black Mother father, caucasian My blood Indian, native So now I'm contemplating being like Nat 'Bout to show you what I'm made of I'm what racists are afraid of No mule and the 40 acres And despite that Watch out for the traitors When they say make America great again, do they mean make us all slaves again? Don't be sidetracked
[Hook: Raye] Is this you declaring war? No, we will never wave the white flag, the white flag So you think I'm gonna run now? No, the time has come to fight back, to fight back This is me declaring war This is me declaring war, war This is me declaring war, war
[Verse 2: Nas] Don't want to be a victim no more Depicted as a criminal, especially when you're poor Why doesn't the government order capital punishment To officers Who racial profile and put slugs in us Makes me think they want us extinct On the brink of insanity We screaming for justice, they sending tanks, the man in me Demand we protect the family, anarchy Ku-Klux-Klan and him demanding he damage me So my fantasy is every single one of us Come against the evil divide of people, it's common sense The fury, I hope the whole world hear me No justice, so I became a revolutionary No matter if you're red, white, black If you want freedom then we're all like Nat
[Hook: Raye] Is this you declaring war? No, we will never wave the white flag, the white flag So you think I'm gonna run now? No, the time has come to fight back, to fight back This is me declaring war This is me declaring war, war This is me declaring war, war
[Outro] Dear America, it's time for a better America There's a little Nat Turner in every one of us No matter if you're red, white, black If you want freedom then we're all like Nat War, war (war), war, war Declare war It's time Let the spirit of Nat Turner live foreverTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
