[Intro: Minister Robert Muhammad]
Fifteen generations
Born, raise, die
Born, raise, die
Born, raise, die
Into a slave condition
But yet we survive

[Verse 1: K-Rino]
Understand we don't expect you to care
'Cause usually when we get caught up it's a [?] dare
Got our whole community lost in the depths of despair
You even tricked some of us to think your methods were fair
We walk around with house shoes on and nets on our hair
People don't wanna get to know you and if they let you, it's rare
Hard to reach us even with a positive message to share
We be like "don't even speak on my name unless it's a prayer"
And it's so hard, we even feelin' like you prayin' is fraud
'Cause if you hate us, they ain't no tellin' what you sayin' to God
We need to trust in those and our own, and stay on our own
How many hours out of each day do we play on our phones
We need attention so bad we be on Facebook cheesin'
Tell everybody where we 'bout to go, what time we leavin'
What we eatin', who we want to fight, and who boyfriend cheatin'
But in the streets it ain't no friends and police do the deletin'
[Chorus: K-Rino]
The blood and the lies
And the tears and the pain
The struggle in our eyes
That the years couldn't tame
Generations done died
And still it remains
And it ain't no surprise
That you feel it's a game
So don't blame your evil on me
I know your mad
But we ain't blind no more
You want us gone
But we ain't gonna leave
We ain't goin' nowhere, never

[Verse 2: K-Rino]
Understand we don't expect you to care
I'm tellin' my people with no nuts to get you a pair
We suffer blindness
Everything wrong we fall in-line with
Its more important things then who some ball player done signed with
Lies told with no appearance of proof
You call the truth hate, 'cause you hate hearin' the truth
And Martin Luther King died when he truly spoke up
They ain't kill him 'cause he had a dream it's 'cause he woke up
And if you thinkin' the systems with you, you got life twisted
If I'm the one who put your car on flat then why would I fix it?
The ghetto been blitz with a sick condition systemic
And made ignorance spread faster than a damn epidemic
Don't ever imitate or mimic nothin' them fools doin'
Quit thinkin' that when they say "we," that, that includes you
See you won't be shocked at all by all the killin' and hatin'
When you understand the nature of the person you facin'
[Chorus: K-Rino]
The blood and the lies
And the tears and the pain
The struggle in our eyes
That the years couldn't tame
Generations done died
And still it remains
And it ain't no surprise
That you feel it's a game
So don't blame your evil on me
I know your mad
But we ain't blind no more
You want us gone
But we ain't gonna leave
We ain't goin' nowhere, never

[Verse 3: K-Rino]
Understand we don't expect you to care
Even as sharecroppers we never received our share
They made promises to ex-slaves while shakin' their hands
And jacked the Indians for two-billions acres of land
A truly free person we was never able to be
Why would they ever want to pay you when the labor was free
We learned after bein' tricked by a biblical half whip
Now I know that ain't Jesus, that's a picture or Brad Pitt
Yeah, yeah
Like I said, we don't expect you to care
How could you when you deliberately infected the air
You up in court innocent, but they don't pay it no mind
How come your own lawyer tryna persuade you to sign
Sympathy for dead blacks, y'all don't take it that far
You cry harder when a damn dog get hit by a car
They ain't gon' ever help you remove that horrible scar
Because unlike us, them demons know who you really are
[Outro: Minister Robert Muhammad]
When you think about all that we survied
Being put into hulls of ships and sailing across the Atlantic
And then surviving that
And being auctioned off, being breeded like animals
Broke family broken up, and then spendin' our lives on a plantation
Listen to me well
Not for three days
Not for three weeks
Not for three hours, or three months, or three years
But for three-hundred years
