New Slave Lyrics

Will you follow God, the spirit that once birthed you, or translate words that once cursed you

Time is up. That's spiritual curfew

They want us to be the new slaves, the new slaves

I guess its just the new wave, the new wave

They want us to be, made us hate our hair, so I bought that nu wave, that nu wave

They want us to be their new slaves, their new slaves, that new modern day Kunta Kinte

That bright light they wana vignette

Excuse me, officer, not today. Driving while black, yeah, I guess that's what my car say

What my car say, I guess that's what my car say

Defendants of that parfait, hate to see us parlay

That's what you mean, when you said horse play

Old ways in this new day

Shackles and chains is the new cage

Lack of reparations is a new rage

Never ended, just a new phase

Judge and jury God

They want us to be the new slaves, the new slaves

I guess its just the new wave, the new wave

They want us to be, made us hate our hair, so I bought that nu wave, that nu wave

They want us to be their new slaves, their new slaves

They lied about that lineage

Late reader, so please excuse my penmanship

Not long ago, we was just loading ships

Ships, ships, ships

No house loan, so no crib, crib

Plenty school loans, none for business

Play close attention, you can see what this is

Us against us, never see what they did

No hood on, we can see them faces

Racist, ugly, yeah, need a facelift

They want us to be the new slaves, the new slaves

Guess it's just the new wave, the new wave

They want us to be, made us hate our hair, so I bought the nu wave, that nu wave

They want us to be the new slaves, the new slave, the new slave
