[Featuring Daddy-O] Once we have the knowledge of self as a people then we could be free and no devil could ever enter the boundaries I stand in the center around all these sounds I see Blessin' Allah that I found the key That's how we be We are by no means ashamed of our cultural background Not a tad bit 'fraid of change Look around, it's the same ol' same ol' thang (Hey, what's goin' on man? How you doin', man?) Ahh, you know, I can't call it Try to maintain, overlooking these boundaries I gotta be righteous, I gotta be me I gotta be conscious, I gotta be free I gotta be able, I gotta attack I gotta be stable, I gotta be black Who is that surrounding me? Enemy enemy you crossed the wrong boundary, poof!
