[Intro: Martin Luther King Jr.] Somehow this madness must cease. We must stop now. I speak as a child of God... I speak for those whose land is being laid waste... [Verse 1: Ok Say] I'm no Phoenix, I wasn't born in the ashes My country was beautiful till the bombs started crashin The skies became all black like in 300 Instead of arrows, f**ing barrels, think we still hungry? I Don't blame ya I blame all those tyrants Like old fascists raping their people, still not tired. I'm Invadin' your continent on the risky boats SPLASHIN' Your brain turned by the media into potato mashed in So Imma try to tell you my story in your own language From Hollywood, through your hood and don't forget those Grammies Cause y'all think I'm all about Muhammad, I mean Sir Ali, when I grow up, I wanna be just like him Fighting against injustice, I will be an HR lawyer Or a doctor, after my experience I ain't got borders The problem is you see me as the bomber Though I'm Not the one that made my city a Sodom or Gomorrah [Chorus] I'm running from my past Running from my culture, running for my life There ain't no first or last The price a brighter future, perhaps a normal life I'm running from the blasts Running from the vultures, running from the lice But when I run into you You won't see me, you'll just see through [Verse 2: Ok Say] I lied I'm a Phoenix and like Steve Nash, I'll make my team win We'll make our sacred homeland, great again, believe me f** Donald Trump and his European colleagues They use us as a stunt to get they a** in office All we want is to be accepted and not thrown in Another cell where me and you can't be even phonin' Like you, I want the new Nikes or them Yeezies Also I'm on Snapchat and I laugh at mean tweets (5) years no education, just hate speech when they schooling Ain't nuthin to it, ain't Allah who made ‘em do it Shout out to Ice cube, Busta Rhymes, MC Ren Nas, Rakim, Q-Tip, Ali Shaheed, Lupe, Yasiin Bey Malcolm X's AutoBio, favourite paperback, that's right We read and watch your stuff, Najeen wants EJ alive But still I got my heritage, I am willing to share it, mate It's not just only one book, it's a 1000 more fairy tales [Chorus] I'm running from my past Running from my culture, running for my life There ain't no first or last The price a brighter future, perhaps a normal life I'm running from the blasts Running from the vultures, running from the lice But when I run into you You won't see me, you'll just see through [Bridge: Martin Luther King Jr.] We still have a choice today; nonviolent coexistence or violent co-annihilation [Verse 3: Ok Say] Where the f** is Marvin Gaye or the Stones? The Withers, the Dylans, The Beatles, who'll say no to war? Only one medium seem like legit enough To be all serious, this is Hip Hop Mainstream is quiet, can MCs be target? An MP was righteous and got f**ing shot Who gives a f**, our survival is luck, rather be thunderstruck, than be k**ed by their bombs and Their bombs, and their bombs, and their tanks and their guns. Refugees smart, think about your Steve Jobs f** their Sharia! Though I'm a believer, an Isaac submission is something I'm not I can be moderate, but spent my formative years in this war and sh**, been through a lot So if you wanna k** these f**ers Daesh First, k** us with kindness, let us feel invited Don't kick us at your border, help us get imported faster I promise we'll start integratin' on the morning after So let's do it Old school, let's exchange culture and goods We'll do an all you can eat, read, work and study too We'll go back, build a new and just temple of Suleiman Let's do it fast, cuz we're running Running out of time [Outro: Martin Luther King Jr.] ...beautifully summed up in the first epistle of Saint John: "Let us love one another; for love is God and everyone that loveth is born of God and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. If we love one another God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us."...
