That's right ... The good people at Rhymesayers ent. Released this track the other day to celebrate Barack's vitory and set off Ali's tour.
Check out the verses ...
[Verse 1]
Stand on your feet the new black commander in chief/
You see the voice of the people can’t be defeated/
We got together and demanded what we needed/
The masters of suffering gotta have some relief/
No more relaxing in that passenger seat, this is/
Our country and our chance to redeem it/
I got to pinch myself I can’t believe it/
We made history happen and you seen it/
We weren’t supposed to put that man in that seat/
We’re supposed to be divided by scare tactics and greed/
Like the most a black kid could ever be/
Is rappers and athletes or selling crack on the streets/
But now’s the time to rise and shine/
We all unite behind America’s brightest mind/
I’m getting goosebumps writing this rhyme/
Almost feels like we got it right this time/
Come on!/
[Verse 2]
I seen white folks confronting their neighbors/
About that old racist McCain shit/
Out in front of where they live/
The first time in my generation/
This nation has had this real race conversation/
And then I saw Obama’s fundraising/
Groundbreaking and found out where it came from/
Not corporations but real folks donating/
I’m mean I seen thugs reading newspapers/
People in the street who been ignored for so long/
That they never saw reason at all to get involved/
Start stepping forth, became a heavy force/
And made their voice change the presidential course/
They never used to give a fuck/
Now they know they got a visit us/
At least they know they gotta listen up/
Tell them old heads the jig is up/
You will never get elected again without us/
Come on!/
[Verse 3]
Of course I know that/
The real war for being free isn’t over/
Every leader need a team of true soldiers/
And once man can’t change the world from his office/
In order to do that we gotta all get on our shit/
We gotta raise our kids/
Take the revolution we started/
Pick up where we left off and don’t quit/
Don’t care what the cost is/
Combine forces with your sisters and brothers/
And pool your resources/
Of course it’s great Barack’s in/
But now we all got to win/
Let’s have a campaign to change us from within/
Rely on each other we ain’t gotta trust them/
Our heart’s been broken by the country within/
But today I got my hand on my heart/
I might go and plant a flag in my yard/
Man fuck it!/
Two years of saying ‘Yes We Can’/
And today Barack Obama’s the man/
You gotta love it!/
