Moor Mother - Race Function Limited lyrics

Brother May: They're covering the truth to cover up their tracks Deceiving the troops They send them to Iraq Twenty one gun salutes That's what their mother gets back We don't receive no counseling But pay cancel tax No refurbishments In them council flats The steps are like the public toilet No cleaner for that Infested with rats Prevented instead of curing that So thеy invest in the trap They focus on thе peas instead Then the vermin starts to spread And multiply And their diseases spread Like poltergeist And history said "It's the same as Ebola, right?" It repeats itself Now they say it's the corona right? The lies they spread Moor Mother: Momma made me Tall baby Out the guts of slavery Grits and gravy Shackle babies Don't touch me Arms crossed, back against the wall, I heard it all Bob and weave They're selling trees Jungle bunny, grease monkey lean from poppy trees There they sing to me Hang another melody Around their throat so I can watch them choke go up in smoke Watch them choke go up in smoke I know the way It won't go away I cannot lose I got the tools I know the rules I got the clues I cannot lose I've felt the blues I know the moves Up on the roof Let God watch me move I know the way If I may Will not be contained I remain I'm only brain Memory of the pain Up on the roof I'm calling your name I'm calling your name
