They didn't know that we were seeds, no
feat. Mick Jenkins & Psalm One | We came from the dirt
Standing tall as the trees
They tried to bury us
They didn't know that we were seeds, no
They didn't know that we were seeds
[Verse 1: Time]
There's no justice on stolen land
The POTUS is a soulless man
This is for Jara's swollen hands
No colonizer could own this land
So give it back to the Cheyenne clan, Arapaho land to the Ute golden sands
This is deeper than secrets that Snowden had, I'm dead and alive like Schrodinger's cat
I never put my city on no road or map, 'cause racists already did that
Just want justice for Sand Creek and to give Standing Rock their land back
This is for my friend Jeanette Vizguerra, no gods, no masters, no fronteras
Families belong together, no more deaths, no banderas
How can you concentrate when kids are in concentration camps I can't relate
I try to contemplate, the power documentation has, I'm anti-state
Borders are scars on the earth, protected by capital what's your worth?
They militarize to protect their turf, the cartel sell so you smoke your herb
We coup their countries then build a wall, we poison their lands then siphon it off
Abolish ice, free the children and all, when we all come together we frighten them off
Knowledge of self is self defense but what's a border but a bloody fence
What's a treaty but a word for theft, what's a seed? It's anti death
They tried to rip out our roots and burn us like weeds, they didn't see our fruits, can't kill the truth
Blood like water, life we bleed, they tried to bury us, didn't know we were seeds
[Hook: Mick Jenkins]
They didn't know that we were seeds, no
They didn't know that we were seeds
[Verse 2: Psalm One]
Fuck, they mobbin' through the lobby
Wu said Cash Rules Everything Around Me
Hussein Hitler MAGA with a bounty
American Tragedy I got the man on me
Girl it don't matter you black or you brown
We all from Africa, shut that shit down
You actin' like they ain't gon' come for the poor and the weak
Or the leaders that's putting in work the streets
Okay
My people gon' learn one day
Hopefully it ain't too late
Catch me in the field with a couple renegades
I ain't never gon' change
No way
How they finna shut us up?
We better learn the law we better uppercut
We gotta bob and weave we got mouths to feed
When they build them walls, you gon' know how to FLEE?
Okay
Now let me get this straight bitch
My life don't matter, got kids in cages
Right price, my data get flipped for racists
On Facebook? Is you faking me?
Yeah they hating me 'cause I blow the whistle
Don't gotta clear shit up hoe you know it's Cristalle
I'm militant plus I'm educated
Got my cash up, no assimilation
And I'm mad as fuck but tryna spread the love
Met Mick Jenkins got my water up
Met Time then we got to spreading seed
This pedigree ain't never followed sheep
So call me when you done snoozin'
Plenty die but we done losin'
If we ain't plottin' what the fuck we doin'?
These seeds growin' and we feed the movement
[Hook: Mick Jenkins]
We came from the dirt
Standing tall as the trees
They tried to bury us
They didn't know that we were seeds, no
They didn't know that we were seeds
Došli smo iz prljavštine
Stojeći visoko kao drveće
Pokušali su nas pokopati
Nisu znali da smo sjeme, ne
Nisu znali da smo sjeme
[Stih 1: vrijeme]
Nema pravde na ukradenom zemljištu
Potus je bezdušni čovjek
Ovo je za Jarine otečene ruke
Nijedan kolonizator ne može posjedovati ovu zemlju
Dajte ga natrag u cheyenne
Ovo je dublje od tajne koje je Snowden imao, mrtav sam i živ poput Schrodingerove mačke
Nikad nisam stavio svoj grad na ne ili mapu, jer su to već učinili rasisti
Samo želim pravdu za pješčanog potoka i dati stojeći rock svoju zemlju natrag
Ovo je za moje prijatelje Jeanette Vizguerra, bez bogova, bez majstora, bez frontera
Obitelji pripadaju zajedno, nema više smrtnih slučajeva, bez bandera
Kako se možete koncentrirati kada su djeca u koncentracijskim logorima ne mogu se odnositi
Pokušavam razmišljati, dokumentacija o napajanju, ja sam anti-stanja
Granice su ožiljci na zemlji, zaštićeni kapitalom što je vaša vrijednost?
Oni militarize kako bi zaštitili svoj travnjak, kartel prodan tako da pušite svoju biljku
Žalimo njihove zemlje, a zatim izgraditi zid, otrovši mi zemlju, a zatim ga sifonira
Ukinuti led, osloboditi djecu i sve, kad smo svi došli zajedno, uplašimo ih
Poznavanje sebe je samoobrana, ali što je granica, ali krvava ograda
Što je ugovor, ali riječ za krađu, što je sjeme? To je anti smrt
Pokušali su otkinuti naše korijene i spaliti nas kao korov, nisu vidjeli naše plodove, ne mogu ubiti istinu
Krv poput vode, života smo krvarili, pokušali su nas pokopati, nisu znali da smo sjeme
[Hook: Mick Jenkins]
Nisu znali da smo sjeme, ne
Nisu znali da smo sjeme
[Stih 2: Psalam jedan]
Zajebavati, mogbin 'kroz lobi
Wu je rekao novac sve oko mene
Hussein Hitler Maga s bountrom
Američka tragedija dobila sam čovjeka na mene
Djevojka ne bi bilo važno crno ili smeđe
Svi smo iz Afrike, zatvorimo to sranje dolje
Vi djelujete kao da nisu gon 'dolaze zbog siromašnih i slabih
Ili vođe koji stavljaju u ulice
u redu
Moji ljudi gon 'uče jednog dana
Nadam se da nije prekasno
Uhvatite me u polju s nekoliko otvora
Nikad se neću mijenjati
Nema šanse
Kako su nas FINA zatvorile?
Bolje da naučimo zakon koji smo bolji uplestimo
Moramo Bob i tkati smo dobili usta za hranjenje
Kada ih grade zidove, znate kako pobjeći?
u redu
Dopustite mi da dobijem ovu ravnu kuju
Moj život nije važan, dobio djecu u kavezima
Prava cijena, moji podaci se okreću za rasiste
Na Facebook-u? Jeste li me glumili?
Da, mrze me zato što ja raznesem zvižduk
Ne moraš očistiti sranje
Ja sam militant plus obrazovan
Dobio sam novac, nema asimilacije
I lud sam kao jebeno, ali tryne širi ljubav
Upoznao sam Mick Jenkins
Metono vrijeme moramo širiti sjeme
Ovaj pedigre nikada nije slijedio ovce
Nazovi me kad završiš snoozin
Puno umire, ali smo učinili lozin
Ako nismo plovit 'što jebote radimo?
Ove sjemenke rastu i hranimo pokret
[Hook: Mick Jenkins]
Došli smo iz prljavštine
Stojeći visoko kao drveće
Pokušali su nas pokopati
Nisu znali da smo sjeme, ne
Nisu znali da smo sjeme
