lirik lagu timothy welbeck – in the words of…
hook
in the words of jermaine, we just want to take off the chains /in the words of o’shea, we want days without the ak /and in the words of mr. duckworth, “if god’s got us, we gone be alright;” we gone be okay
(repeat)
verse 1
these demagogues who strive, those who fight to conserve/believe our lives have worth before our wives have given birth /but we’re at odds because the compromises they often provide/justify our demise or only make matters worse /these guys on the other side will land on equity without a deed conferred/my point, the power in office is only with us in word/what i’ve learned, what i’ve come to observe/is the left wing and the right wing belong to the same bird/that’ll ruffle some feathers if you’ve got some privileged incurred/they will muzzle the message because they think the system will work/but please believe i am discouraged, i am not deterred/what ever hue (hughes) they color me to languish in , the dream is not deferred/i serve the god who made heaven and earth/who hung the sun, moon, and stars/and he hears our concerns/and lo, he is faithful there to the end/so, i believe, i believe, i believe that we will win
hook
verse 2
the wife said, “it’s folk half sleep like to claim that they’re woke”/i agree, you can tell by what they say in their quotes/they’ll be like, “dress to be addressed, i ain’t say she a hoe”/but if you listen they just did without saying it though/like how you know trayvon’s hoodie doesn’t make him a threat/but claim a woman can be raped because of the way that she’s dressed/while you defend nates and bills, they are raped and k!lled/wait, be still, contemplate how that makes them feel/but ain’t she a woman? look at her/and know you’re part of the reason her oppression could occur/but ain’t she a woman? you should have stood with her, and protected her from all of those wounds that she could incur/but your mind’s ensnared with thoughts that are so evil/the inception got you thinking you have no equal/and you don’t care how things might fare for our own people/you arose from the nightmare a slave to your ego, you ain’t woke
bridge
in the words of jermaine we just want to take of the chains (repeat 2x)
