Chains Lyrics by Nikos

FLAMES

2017

[INTRO - MALCOLM X]
That we are faced with a racialistic society
A society in which they are deceitful, deceptive, and the only way we can bring about a change is to speak the language that they understand
The racialist never understands a peaceful language
The racialist never understands the non-violent language
He’s spoken his language to us for 400 years
We have been the victim of his brutality
I’m speaking as a black man from America, we are the ones who have our skulls crushed
Not by the Ku Klux Klan but by policemen

[HOOK x2]
All black when I bang (yea)
Boy you still rockin’ your chains
Don’t tell me you still rockin’ your chains

Mike Vick with the flame (yea)
That’s how we running the game
My niggas ain’t rockin’ no chains

[Verse 1]
40 acres on a ransom note
Fire bomb out the mansion though
Fire bomb out the mansion though
We hit the street like a panther though
All black like a panther though

Wicker chair like I’m Huey
Ski mask, couple uzis
We hit the scene, shoot a movie
We hit the scene, shoot a movie

They got us straight off the boat
We got it straight out the mud
I want it straight out the safe
Need receipts for my ones

[HOOK x2]
All black when I bang (yea)
Boy you still rockin’ your chains
Don’t tell me you still rockin’ your chains

Mike Vick with the flame (yea)
That’s how we running the game
My niggas ain’t rockin’ no chains

[VERSE 2]
I ain’t never rockin’ no Balmains
I ain’t tryna rock in no Balmains
That’s how you know he a hoe mane
We fill the streets up with smoke mane
Leave a pig on a pole mane

[BREAK - MALCOLM X]
Well any time you live in a society supposedly based upon law, and it doesn’t enforce it’s own law because the color of a man's skin happens to be wrong then I say those people are justified to resort to any means necessary to bring about justice where the government can’t give them justice

[HOOK x2]
All black when I bang (yea)
Boy you still rockin’ your chains
Don’t tell me you still rockin’ your chains

Mike Vick with the flame (yea)
That’s how we running the game
My niggas ain’t rockin’ no chains

[VERSE 3]
Took his taser off his waist
Oh now we pushing the pace
Oh yea we pushing the pace
Put his shit to his face
Oh now you feeling the pain
Every pig get his day

[OUTRO - MALCOLM X]
If you take up arms you’ll end it, but if you sit around and wait for the one who’s in power to make up his mind that he should end it, you’ll be waiting a long time. You’re living at a time of extremism, a time of revolution, a time when there’s got to be a change. People in power have misused it and now there has to be a change and a better world has to be built and the only way it’s going to be built is with extreme methods
