Red Dawn - SA-ROC

The dawn breaks, sun beam like a sign of God

Hope your conscience clear, hope you’re clean of heart

I’ve had hands in dirt since I’ve ever learned to walk

And all those years I’ve kept my growing anger camouflaged

And these revelations won’t do more to help them see

Hows it feel to be a prisoner in the land of free

My black skin got me backed against the wall

So I keep swinging at the cracks till the plaster fall

You call me a terrorist when I resort to war?

When I ain’t seen my daddy since the tender age of four

How your hands a simple sport

And all I get for my services is more debt to support

I don seen some strange f.

on the southern trees

And I’ve seen others weep over the bloody leaves

Black bodies are a commodity, price on our heads

So we don’t even get a moment to swallow our grieve

Now its judgment day, how does your plead?

Resounding guilty from the members of the justice league

It’s the moment of truth

It’s the dawn of a new day

Now we stand on our own too

This is prophecy fulfilled I’m a saved man

From Virginia cattle fields to the stage man

I got heaven on my side, righteousness behind me

And we gonn' bring the light of God to this depraved land

We gonn' get free or die tryin, word is bond

And that’s in Babylon

When your scales are just as thick but you’re half as my resilient

Cuz I’m smashing every surface I get this gavel on

I ain’t never been

My intelligence and strength is more than eclipse your demand

We’re leveling the playing field by every means necessary

Every time you’ll hear Sa-Roc you’ll think legendary fam

And I’m just but one of many, an example to be sampled from

A humble woman who chose the value in path of martyrdom

I’d rather die on my own tour than live on my knees

Please believe I ain’t ask for battle till they started some

So I’ll be damned if you don’t watch fight to take the liar down

It’s the moment of truth

It’s the dawn of a new day

Now we stand on our own too

On our own too

On our own too
