Time Is the Enemy - Napoleon Da Legend

Verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend

It goes power to the righteous cause the powers never liked

Us eating at the table seems they never wanted to invite us

They rather just divide us and indict us and in light of what’s happening

Down in Flint they want us catching Meningitis

Our suffering empowered me to write this for the youth

To evolve Get back to the cycle of moon and the stars

It’s hard to decipher what’s true or false propaganda

And deception media putting a slant on my perception

Millions raised to finance the elections what we manifesting

When we putting money in the hands of the oppressor

Can Bernie Sanders make a difference?

And why we always looking

Outside ourselves to make a change in how we living?

Stuck within a system pathway from school to prison

Substituting racists concepts with words and euphemisms

We need answers for this cancer to make it thru remission

While you popping off the lip the clocks ticking the youth listens

Chorus: Dick Gregory speech

Verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend

For all intents and purpose don’t ever mention an indentured

Servants and When it comes to blacks and cops don’t ever mention murder

Don’t ever mention water don’t ever mention war

Don’t ever mention racism and don’t mention poor

Dead bodies hung on a rope that’s too uncomfortable we

‘posed to be the dumbest and slow smelling the gun smoke

Social experiments the butt of all embarrassment a

System never based on merits is what we married with

Without the marriage license trying to paralyze our minds

With ISIS speak eloquent like Michael Eric Dyson

Whichever way you slice it truth is inescapable I say it

Even if only capable to save a few Slaving for a plate of food

That’s how they labeled you they locked you in a 360 jail just like the labels

do

It’s mental warfare the very thing we chasing is decimated by time and

everything erases
