Motherland Lyrics – KillaTooma
Singer: KillaTooma
Title: Motherland
My job is to somehow [Ah
Make them curious enough to get more aware of themselves and where they came from [Ah
And what they are into and what is already there [Huh!]
We all hail from the motherland
But ge’ colonised on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment, the motive to the intent
Bu’ history is ancient, even to the ancient
We are not adjacent, the cover-up is blatant
There is no replacement
And still, we rise to my amazement, never be complacent
I stay connected to the cradle
Where we were prematurely severed by the navel
Part of the reason why we struggle to be stable
They wan’ us believe tha’ our history was a fable, tha’ start with the ships
And the scars from the whips, and when the captain ge’ pick
And when the cane ge’ cut when they put the pain is us
But quittin’ ain’ in us, now come forward four cent’ries
Onward with a purpose, ain’ nothin’ co’ prevent these
Gods from pursuing success by renewin’
The vision, to aim with precision
My craft’s my religion [Yeah
My past, my traditions [Yeah
The secret’s in the melanin, it’s developin’
The truth could be unsettlin’, but it’s genuine
The birth of all humanity, ga know your past if you wan’ preserve your sanity
Love yourself and don’t le’ dem call it vanity
We all hail from the motherland
But ge’ colonised on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment, the motive to the intent
Bu’ history is ancient, even to the ancient
We are not adjacent, the cover-up is blatant
There is no replacement
And still, we rise to my amazement, never be complacent
Check ya history by Columbus [Check it
I love black people bu’ we all live like squares when we really came from the rhombus
Livin’, walk it like Marcus, till I rot in my carcass [Uh
I’m inches off caucasian at surface, but my roots are stallion-coloured
And since the slavin’, today they call it labourin’ [Wha’!
Black people workin’ at the factory plants that they are sla-bourin’ [Uh
Killa, I see ya vision [I see it
More educatin’ by apartheid when I scream freedom!
My n#gg#s go hard right for me
You ain’t ’bout sh#t if you work for the man [Na
You sell dope but still work for the man ’cause you still lustin’ the bands
And you still lustin’ them m’s, and you still jerkin’ your friends
Over white man’s pushin’ white, tha’ sh#t
Steadily risin’ through enterprisin’
It ain’t surprisin’, God gave the bulbs, we kept it shinin’ [Kept it shinin’
Pray on my knees, so we goin’ be grindin’
It’s black power in a white man’s world, I’m jus’ wisin’ [n#gg#]
We all hail from the motherland
But ge’ colonised on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment, the motive to the intent
Bu’ history is ancient, even to the ancient
We are not adjacent, the cover-up is blatant
There is no replacement
And still, we rise to my amazement, never be complacent
Guilty of a homicide, with the Killa [Twa!
Death to the lies of history is not a thriller
A forgotten kingdom of black royals boasting stardom
Cent’ries long before Martin and Douglas
Still on the rise, we are the phoenix from the ash
No diamonds or no cash can purchase what we stash
Cannot take hold of we survivors, forget our colonisers
They’re only our dividers [I say
They couldn’t’ve conquer the fire wha’ taint it’s this unity that still remains
One of a depressing fatal sin
That’s why the Killa get up, say Shine and Jedi set up
United let’s stand and a rally for the black nation step up
Never ya take us for no poppy show, we ready to go
Rosa Park, Malcolm X flow, my enemies
Inscription from the black skin glow, new chapter
We must win anywhere it go, close an open door [Shine-I!]
We all hail from the motherland
But ge’ colonised on the other hand
We must unify instead of blame the other man
Is they who lack the pigment, the motive to the intent
Bu’ history is ancient, even to the ancient
We are not adjacent, the cover-up is blatant
There is no replacement
And still, we rise to my amazement, never be complacent
Why am I so insistent upon [Rise
Giving out to them that blackness [Rise
That black power [Rise
Pushing them to identify with black culture [Rise
I have no choice in the first place, to me [Rise
We are the most beautiful creatures in the whole world [Rise
Outside and inside, and to me [Rise
We have a culture that is surpassed by no other civilization [Rise, rise, rise, rise]
