We've been through it all
Though it could be worse
We've been moved aroundIn a state of alert
There's nothing new or sharp about the cutting edge
If they build a wall
Let's jump the fence, I'm over thisCold stares can never put the fear in me
What we built here is godly
They can't gentrify the heart of kings
Let's just not talk about it
If I make a move, you're coming with me
What about the love? Coming with me
What about the labor? Coming with me
What about the seed? It's coming with me
People that you came with coming with me
What about the love? Coming with me
What about the labor? Coming with me
What about the seed? It's coming with me
People that you came with, ya coming with meHey
(Okay now) Hey now
(Just don't stay down)
Uh, can't stay now
(Let's go shake down)
Until we get what we need, oh yeah
(Okay now) I'm okay now
(Just don't stay down)
Yeah, can't hold me down
(Let's go shake down)
And let it fall like the leaves, I want it all
We couldn't stand to see
Our children shot dead in the streets
But when I finally took a knee
Them crackers took me out the league
Now I'm not much for games
But I play for keeps
And we salute King James for using his chains
To create some equal opportunitiesCold stares can never put the fear in me
There's a movement we've been grooving on
You can move or stay your ass asleep
Let's just not talk about it
Everything they tried to hide
We're taking back for yours and mineWhat about the love? Coming with me
What about the labor? Coming with me
What about the seed? It's coming with me
People that you came with coming with meWhat about the love? Coming with me
What about the labor? Coming with me
What about the seed? It's coming with me
People that you came with, ya coming with meWhat about the loveWhat about the seed? It's coming with meWhat about the love? Coming with meWhat about the seed? It's coming with me
People that you came with, ya coming with meOkay now
Just don't stay down
Let's go shake down
(Shake, shake, shake, shake)Okay now
Just don't stay down
Let's go shake down
(Shake, shake, shake, shake)
