This Land by Will Brennan
This Land lyrics
(Hook):
This land is your land, your land, your land, your land...
Will Brennan (verse 1):
I'm just a broke ni**a from Palm Beach
I keep to myself.
Down here, ni**as is green and girls something else.
Real talk, as I learned my thoughts got humble.
I sat back and realized we living in a jungle.
Better watch the preditors, they lookin' for prey.
If they catch your ass slipping you'll be slippin' away
Into the afterlife
Better pray your grandma pray
For that Passion of Christ
To keep your ass in the light
'Cause that silly goon shit, that's what half of them like.
The other half just wanna chill but they be having to fight
All of the dumb ni**as
Dumb ni**as
Dumb ni**as
Worst part is it's mostly a bunch of young ni**as.
They don't know that we all brothers!
Lost sons of Africa,
Home of the Great mother.
Forced poverty got 'em to hate others.
It's war in the streets
Take cover, this land is our land.
(Hook):
This land is your land, your land, your land, your land...
It's time to take it back
Will Brennan (verse 2):
Black man, black man.
Don't your know your history?
Back in the beginning,
Ancient African antiquity?
Homie, they look like you!
Homie, they look like me!
The ones that looked like them, came to learn the mysteries
Who taught them philosophy, geometry, astrology?
If you don't believe me go and ask Cartius Ptolemy.
What an hypocrasy, for them to steal the knowledge.
Go back to Greece and re-title it the genius work of Socrates.
He studied in Africa!
So did Hippocrates!
So did Pythagoras!
So did Archimedes!
And Aristotle, so did Thelesiadorus.
Man it's took true to igore it
Deep in the temples of Horace
They was owning everything they knew
It's all recorded
Greatest civilization ever, remaining unrewarded!
But here I am to tell you all the truth that they distorted.
A rich history, I wish we could afford it!
(Hook:)
This land it your land, your land, your land, your land..
A rich history, I wish we could afford it.
It's war in the streets
Take cover, this land is OUR land.
