Saddle Brown

Lyrics

What’s up dog? Nah bruh you can reverse that
D.O.G., G.O.D. I’m more close to that
I’m resurrected from the dead, not the grave though
Here to correct what’s in your head since the slave boat
Why’d they compromise? three fifth compromise
My culture, My God, and My people been demonized

It’s truth, on the front line, tell me I’m lying
There’s proof that the masses still suffering and dying
We built this city on rock and souls
And we never earned a penny if the truth be told
So, laugh, it’s the past, throw memories in the trash
But you need to revamp your math, Three Fifths My Ass

You say the sky is blue, that’s your perception
Oceans and colored eyes too are mere reflections
The rising sun don’t lie, it will forever turn
No sign of shade in sight, I still won’t ever burn
Why’d they compromise? three fifths compromise
When we’ve been birthing albinos since the beginning of time.

It’s truth, on the front line, tell me I’m lying
There’s proof that the masses still suffering and dying
We built this city on rock and souls
And we never earned a penny if the truth be told
So, laugh, it’s the past, throw memories in the trash
But you need to revamp your math, Three Fifths My Ass

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge
Not the type of intellect paid for in college
It says the wages of sin is the wages of death,
I say the wages of death is no knowledge of self

Three Fifths My Ass
Hair like lambswool, Three Fifths My Ass
Feet like burnt brass, Three Fifths My Ass
Last will be first, Three Fifths My Ass
First will be last, Three Fifths My Ass
