[Meek Mill, Pusha T, Priscilla Renea - Black Moses lyrics]
I been workin' all day
Hmmm 'til the sun go down
Back hurt, feet hurt, but I still got to work
Who gonna save me? Hmmm, break every chain
Hmmm take me away from this place
And leave me away
Runnin' like I know they comin' for me
I'm 'bout to spill enough blood
To fill the red sea fear no evil
'bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me
That's just what it's gon' be
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Kill 'em all, that's the minimal
Only way to fend 'em off
Leave 'em sittin' at death's door
Proper way to send 'em off
They'll just beat me 'til the sin is
Off or my skin is off
Some tried to run, they got tracked down
Now our limit's off
I'm just tryna find the North
Let the stars design the course
Hope the mud can hide my scent
Pray the night can slow they horse
Got me shackled up in chains
Even made me change my name
But they couldn't trap my mind
This cry for freedom ain't in vain
See they taught us half the story
Didn't know we came from glory
Years ago we was kings before the
Boats came and lured me
Woo, gotta keep runnin', gotta keep runnin'
Yah, cause they keep gunnin'
And they keep comin'
Runnin' like I know they comin' for me
I'm 'bout to spill enough blood
To fill the red sea fear no evil
'bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me
That's just what it's gon' be
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Slaves, on the North side of Philly
Where they serve their mamas
And go spend that money they made on designer
We shoot at our brothers but
Run from the coppas
In front of Your Honor, beggin' for freedom
If freedom got free in it
Why it ain't free then?
We go get a lawyer, a liar, that's descent
To meet with the District Attorney agreement
Like "take it or leave it
Leave it or take it" if we finna take it
I'm finna go straight for the win
(Winnin', winnin', winnin')
We started as slaves
We came up from nothin'
If I could live twice, I would do it again
Again and again, 'gain and again, huh
Who gon' love your momma on them drugs
Little babies that was never loved
So they run into the corner store
Quarter water only time they get a hug
Get some coca, only time they get some work
Say that it be poppin' on the first
He was poppin' when he had the money
'Til they popped him
Now he ridin' in a hearse
This is real shit, nigga, not a verse
People really, really outta work
Kids starving somethin gotta work
Preacher even trappin' out the church
Put them shackles on my arm and leg
All them days made my body hurt
Locked my brothers all up in the cage
So we turn to prayer, hoping God will work
Runnin' like I know they comin' for me
I'm 'bout to spill enough blood
To fill the red sea fear no evil
'bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me
That's just what it's gon' be
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Hmmm 'til the sun go down
Back hurt, feet hurt, but I still got to work
Who gonna save me? Hmmm, break every chain
Hmmm take me away from this place
And leave me away
Runnin' like I know they comin' for me
I'm 'bout to spill enough blood
To fill the red sea fear no evil
'bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me
That's just what it's gon' be
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
