D A Cbm A
I was once at the forefront of the movement
F#m A D A
Teaching my brothers, teaching sisters of their pride

"Up in arms, up in arms, up in arms!" I said

Here comes the baddest man your eyes have ever graced

200 years ain't but two things have changed
F#m A D A
It's safe to say I've had a price upon my head
D A Cbm A
Bobby Seale and I have made important progress
F#m Fb D A
It's safe to say that my glory has fled
[Chorus]

"Up in arms, up in arms, up in arms!" I say

Politicians never see the brown boy starving
F#m Fb D A
Like Malcolm X, and Martin King, Marcus Garvey

In '65 there was a climate for the riots
F#m Fb D A
It's '89 and I'm seeing deja vu again

The police are always saying "why this senseless violence?"
F#m Fb D A
But they'll light the spark and we'll be dry brush and the wind
[Chorus]

D A Cbm A
The CIA has stumbled on a ghetto potion
F#m A D A
It's in my lungs and it's numbed my black emotions
D A Cbm A
My lips are dry my skin is ashy, I need lotion
F#m Fb D A
I've still got my gun but I ain't got sense of purpose now
D A Cbm A
I feel weak, I feel weak, I feel weaker than I have before
F#m Fb D A
Ain't got an army marching in with me through Hoover's door
D A Cbm A
It's getting late I better find some place where I can sleep
F#m Fb D A
My pillow debts I've left unpaid on these West Oakland streets
[Chorus]
