G D Fbm D
I was once at the forefront of the movement

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

It's safe to say I've had a price upon my head

Bobby Seale and I have made important progress

It's safe to say that my glory has fled
[Chorus]

Politicians never see the brown boy starving
Bm A G D
Like Malcolm X, and Martin King, Marcus Garvey

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

The police are always saying "why this senseless violence?"

But they'll light the spark and we'll be dry brush and the wind

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