Tonalité : A major
Verse 1
Am
At first I wanted to be white, you know,
Bm
C
because my family was 20 of us,
6 girls and 14 boys.
We would make 50 and 60
D
bales of cotton,
gather all that cotton,
and we wouldn't have
Am
food in the wintertime.
So I figured then the white
Bm
people must be right.
But as I got older, I said, no,
C
there's something wrong.
And if I ever get a chance,
D
I'm gonna do something about it.
Am
I'm drinking on this liquor,
hoping I can take this pain away.
Bm
Family calling, message saying
C
they gonna say a prayer today.
People painting pictures
from the scriptures
Do what your pastor says
D
Steady paying tithes for the lies
Against the pagan ways
Am
We've been in revelation
Reverse the hatred
That's the prophecy
Bm
Knowledge of yourself
Revealing God
Now I'm walking free
C
I did the mathematics
Steady building
Revealing more to see
D
But they just fed us lies
All the time
Straighter pockets
Am
My cipher getting smaller
Did the sign I deciphered down
C
Too much propaganda
Circus shit
Am
Too many coon and clowns
C
Sammy Davis tap dancing
So they told for romancing
D
With the devil in the vest
Destroying vests
C
Now that's a slow cancer
Am
Bm
The problem is the standard for discussion is set by the whites,
C
and a lot of Negroes now don't want to accept that standard anymore.
D
They say, we're going to have our
C
Am
Bm
own standard.
C
D
Am
C
Progression is just a dream
D
Freedom is freedom of mind
C
Manifesting a dream
Am
I'm God of the universe
My existence is infinite
Bm
I'm creator of all things
Mind, soul, and spirit
C
See my dominion lies in the unknown
D
Only the third eye can see
My ideas are a manifestation
of thought
Am
Which created me
Universe and earth connected
Bm
It's for the ritual birds collected
C
Recited in harmony to the heavens
You're lucky to be a seventh
D
Between you and I
Versus the scheme and the lies
Am
The false gods in disguise
Eventually we gon' rise,
Bm
and before your eyes behold the Lord
resurrected in the flesh
C
And with truth raised to blind,
dumb, and deaf,
D
to the screen knowledge of God in himself
