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