prolific the rapper - black snakes lyrics
[intro]
one family
if we don’t stand, who will?
one earth
[verse 1]
the wind comes in four corners
four directions, four colors
and death rides on 4 hors-m-n
a black snake with some black tanks (ugh)
how much money do these companies need to make?
they could drive their product
but they want to save a buck
already extracted billions
when is enough, enough?
i used to be in the oil fields, getting paid
but i quit, ’cause oil-water i can’t drink
looked down and seen kimimila die in the mud
i looked up and told myself that enough’s enough
money does not own my soul, living comfortable
is not in my plans, my hands in the sand
some things worth more than gold
some things they can’t be sold
some things can’t be replaced
she is your mother, the fresh water is her veins
[bridge]
turtle island, not black snakes
the fresh water is her veins
what is going on have we all lost our minds?
every human needs clean water to survive
[verse 2]
love is the strongest
this path is the hardest
but if we weren’t strong enough to do it we wouldn’t see it
our prayers would not be needed
this movement’s very needed
indigenous wisdom unheeded
and sacred things depleted
i’m mexicano, ma lakota, and i’m white, too
i’m mixed with everyone
so part of me’s just like you
every group of human beings shares the same stars
and if the earth is not your mother
are you from mars?
[bridge]
this side of the planet’s been in decline since 1492
500 years and counting
surviving the genocide they call “colonizing my turtle island”
[verse 3]
what is a fossil fuel?
continued destruction, nothing new
live in a system
taking our children
shifting their feelings
till nothings true
i had that money in front of me but i left it
’cause oil money’s dirty if my mother gets disrespected
we’re disconnected, these times are hectic
and feeling heavy
but we still love all living beings
and suffer for the many
we are a peaceful people
that’s why we walk with prayer
and if that wasn’t true
we wouldn’t be standing here
[outro]
we’re peaceful people
who walk with prayer
turtle island, have no fear
despite what they show in the media
we’re kind people, hold your ground
change is coming now
