African Student Movement Lyrics

Freedom, ignorance
Jealousy, belligerence
Anger, self-control
Tolerance, to and fro

Wisdom, ecstacy
Addiction, dependency
Discipline, counter act
Pray for peace, then attack

Dominance, contradict
Upper class, derelict
Downgrade, downsize
Upstate, uprise

Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?

Downtown, on the block
At the club, steaming hot
Dancing, talking shit
Telling lies like a pimp

Meanwhile, underpaid
Read like second grade
Uncle Sam, sign you up
Benefits and a gun

Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?

African people
African people
African people
African people
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun

Rise up, over stand
Stand your ground, own your land
Serve all, love all
Never sleep, never fall

Meditate, eat right
Pray first, then fight
But for truth, not for fame
Not for glory or the game

Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?

African People
African people
African People
African People
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun

Liberia, Iraq
Dark brown, light black
South Africa, Mozambique
Mud hut, concrete

AIDS ridden, heart disease
Strange fruit, southern trees
Sierre Leone, diamond mines
Cameroon, pipe lines

Port au Prince, Salvadore
Civil right, civil war
Zimbabwe, Trenchtown
Money makin', Queens bound

BX, Shaolin
Uptown, Brooklyn
Upstate, Newburgh
Unseen, unheard

Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?
Now tell me, where my niggas at?

African People
African people
African People
African People
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun
