Chains - NIKOS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
