Black Moses - Intellectual

[Intro: Muni Long]

I been workin' all day, hmmm 'til the sun go down

Back hurt, feet hurt, but I still got to work

Who gonna save me? Hmmm, break every chain, hmmm

Take me away from this place and leave me away

[Hook: Muni Long]

Runnin' like I know they comin' for me

I'm 'bout to spill enough blood to fill the red sea

Fear no evil, 'bout to set my people all free

If they crucify me, that's just what it's gon' be

Black Moses, Moses, woah now

[Verse 1: Pusha T]

Kill 'em all, that's the minimal, only way to fend 'em off

Leave 'em sittin' at death's door, proper way to send 'em off

They'll just beat me 'til the sin is off or my skin is off

Some tried to run, they got tracked down, now our limit's off

I'm just tryna find the North, let the stars design the course

Hope the mud can hide my scent, pray the night can slow they horse

Got me shackled up in chains, even made me change my name

But they couldn't trap my mind, this cry for freedom ain't in vain

See they taught us half the story, didn't know we came from glory

Years ago we was kings before the boats came and lured me

Woo, gotta keep runnin', gotta keep runnin'

Yah, cause they keep gunnin', and they keep comin'

[Hook: Muni Long]

Runnin' like I know they comin' for me

I'm 'bout to spill enough blood to fill the red sea

Fear no evil, 'bout to set my people all free

If they crucify me, that's just what it's gon' be

Black Moses, Moses, woah now

[Verse 2: Meek Mill]

Slaves, on the North side of Philly

Where they serve their mamas

And go spend that money they made on designer

We shoot at our brothers but run from the coppas

In front of Your Honor, beggin' for freedom

If freedom got free in it, why it ain't free then?

We go get a lawyer, a liar, that's descent

To meet with the District Attorney agreement

Like "take it or leave it, leave it or take it"

If we finna take it, I'm finna go straight for the win

(Winnin', winnin', winnin')

We started as slaves, we came up from nothin'

If I could live twice, I would do it again

Again and again, 'gain and again, huh

Who gon' love your momma on them drugs

Little babies that was never loved

So they run into the corner store

Quarter water only time they get a hug

Get some coca, only time they get some work

Say that it be poppin' on the first

He was poppin' when he had the money

'Til they popped him, now he ridin' in a hearse

This is real shit, nigga, not a verse

People really, really outta work

Kids starving somethin gotta work

Preacher even trappin' out the church

Put them shackles on my arm and leg

All them days made my body hurt

Locked my brothers all up in the cage

So we turn to prayer, hoping God will work

[Hook: Muni Long]

Runnin' like I know they comin' for me

I'm 'bout to spill enough blood to fill the red sea

Fear no evil, 'bout to set my people all free

If they crucify me, that's just what it's gon' be

Black Moses, Moses, woah now
