chef shiv - american lit project كلمات الأغنية

1619 to america
the conditions very terrible
blacks helped make this country
traded and used like currency

israelites, enslaved by egyptians
moses, was the prescription
saved them, took them home
he said “let my people go”

egypt land of the enslaved
same with the south in huck’s days
stuck in captivity;
with a lotta fatalities
egypt and missouri
that’s southern hospitality
slavery not just not free
it’s about being the casualties

singing songs about freedom
not when free, but when they need em
slave owners, pharaoh, know
they have the control
that’s how it go
keep the system the same
not calling audibles

south below the north
physically and mentally
on the mississippi sh0r-s
thats where we see
jim and huckleberry
under racism’s canopy
characterize how they co-exist
and how the world around them is
no justice

throw it back to moses in his day
egypt was a bad place
enslaving the israelites
moses fixed it up
threatening to smite
moses came in, he made it all right

just to recap the situation
blacks and israelites
held in foreign nations
came together, congregations
sang songs in sad times
not songs in elation
time makes them far apart
two different peoples
they not equal
but it sounds like american slavery was the sequel
