Ya  uh  I was once told

You get your freedom
By letting your enemy know that

You'll do anything to get your freedom

Then you'll get it

It's the only way you'll get it

When you get that kind of attitude

They'll label you as a crazy Negro

Or they'll just call you a crazy nigga

They don't say 'Negro'

Or they'll call you an Extremist

Or a subversive  or a setatus

Or a red or radical

But when you stay radical long enough

And get enough people to like you

You'll get your freedom

So don't run around here tryin' to make friends
With somebody who's deprivin' you of your rights

They're not your friends  no

They ya enemies

And treat them like that and fight them

And you'll get your freedom

And after you get your freedom

Your enemy will respect you

And we'll respect you

And I say that with no hate

'Cause I don't have no hate in me

I have no hate at all

So I say to you  big man

I'm the man you think you are

If you want to know what I'll do

Figure out what you'll do

And I'll do the same  only more of it  nigga

Damn  shit

Oh  it ain't
