Motherland Lyrics by KillaTooma

Vision Builds Kingdoms

2021

[ntro] [Nina Simone]
My job is to somehow make them curious enough
To get more aware of themselves and where they came from
And what they are into
And what is already there

Ugh

[Chorus 1]
We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

[Verse 1]
I feel connected to the cradle
Where we were prematurely severed by the navel
Part of the reason why we struggle to be stable
They want us believe that our history was a fable
And start with the ships
And the scars from the whips
And when the cotton get pick
And when the cane get cut
When they put the pain in us
But quitting ain’t in us
Now come forward four centuries
Onward with a purpose ain’t nothing could prevent these
Gods from pursuing success by renewing their vision
To aim with precision
My craft’s my religious
My past my traditions
The secret’s in the melanin
It’s developing
The truth could be unsettling
But it’s genuine
The birth of all humanity
Got to know your past if you want preserve your sanity
Love yourself and don’t let them call it vanity

[Chorus 2]
We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

[Verse 2] [King Jedi]
Check your history by Columbus
I love back people
But we all live like squares
When we really came from the rhombus
Living, walk it like Marcus
Til I’m rotten, my carcass
I’m inches of Caucasian at surface
But my roots are Stallion colored
Ancestors slaving
Today they call it “laboring”
Black people working at manufacturing plants today are
Killa, I see your vision
More educating ‘bout apartheid
When I scream “Freedom”
My niggas go hard right for me
You ain’t ‘bout shit if you work for the man
You sell dope, but still work for the man
Cause you still lusting the bands
And you still lusting them ends
And you still jerking your friends
Over white man’s
Pushing weight, that Lou Ferrigno shit
Steadily rising through enterprising
Ain’t even surprising
God gave the bulbs
We kept it shining
Pray on my knees so we going be grinding
It’s black power in a white man’s world
I’m just wising
Nigga

[Chorus 3]
We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

[Verse 3] [Shine-I]
Guilty of a homicide with the Killa
Death to the lies of histories
Not a thriller
A forgotten Kingdom of black royals
Boosting stardom
Centuries long before Martin and Douglas
Still on the rise
We are the Phoenix from the ash
No diamonds or no cash can purchase what we stash
Cannot take over we survivors
Forget the colonizers
They only are dividers
They couldn’t of concur the fire with …
Tis this unity that still remains
One of our deepest and fatal sins
That’s why the Killa get up
Say Shine and Jedi set up
United I stand and I rally for the black nation step up
Never you take us for no poppy show
We ready to go
Rosa Parks, Malcolm X flow
By any means
Inscription from my black skin glow
New chapter, we must win anywhere it go
Close that open door
Shine-I

[Chorus 4]
We all hail from the Motherland
But get colonized on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment
The motive to the intent
Our history is ancient
Even to the ancient
We are not adjacent
The cover up is blatant
There is no replacements
And still we rise to my amazement
Never be complacent

[Outro] [Nina Simone]
Why am I so insistent
Upon giving out to them
That black-ness, that black power
Pushing them to identify with black culture
I have no choice in the first place
To me, we are the most beautiful creators in the whole world
Outside and inside
And to me we have a culture that is surpassed by no other civilization
