Skipp Coon & Mister Nick - Skipp's Interlude lyrics

We on these streets where police dogs attack our women and children And fire hoses pinned my people to buildings I don't find the table that they eating at appealing Cause Medgar didn't die for me to admire gla** ceilings But now neglect is a weapon, see they crooked and cross-dealing Forget a good hand, the hood got firearms and no feelings And they rationalize these senseless k**ings Believe in the deeds of villains to reflect what the system's instilling The god I was given, is not who I pray to, when it's anger I'm feeling And if you hungry I don't fault you for that bread that you stealing Only to God will I be bowing or kneeling I don't find the enemy's recognition fulfilling I don't do this for your approval, as God as my witness This is the soundtrack to our struggle I don't care if I'm hitless I was not born to be idle or shiftless I will resist and revolt, all in an effort to recapture our legacy Forget concessions, I would rather be free They tell you never say never, but God knows that I never will be Limited to your opinion of me. Pick a tree I'd rather hang from it than dance for ya I will be free or die tryin'. On concessions I'm not relyin' I was wired to be defiant And in your plans for my demise, I will be non-compliant With God I am David: I will slay the giant With God I am David: I will slay this giant With God I am David: I will slay this giant With God I am David: I will slay this giant With God I am David: I will slay the giant
