Posted By: Mister O The Hip Hop Teacher on October 08, 2016 Through the art of spoken word with a soulful jazzy track, Kamal Imani flows about the resilience of Black people in the face of oppression. He flows about the deep innate ability to tap into the soul or spirit in order to refresh and resurrect! The enemy strikes black, but we don’t fold, we transform and roll, when we tap into our souls! We got that melanin sun connection ancestral communication Going back through the line of divine We’ve been here through the sands of time Descendants of original mind Antagonistic beings wish we’d die, so their hoping But every time they attack, our first eye’s reopen Like a lotus flower, then we recollect that, we got the power Cause we’re tapping into our souls in this final hour! The enemy strikes black, but we don’t fold, we transform and roll, when we tap into our souls! You keep coming for us, you oppress with stress But God’s inside of us, so devil we stay blessed You think your slick wit yo tricks but it aint about you It’s about what the people of soul gonna do We’re resurrecting the grapevine An remembering the time, that we fell in love And that the Creator----wants us to love our Black neighbor When we reunify, we’ll resurrect, and do the works, of the Savior! The enemy strikes black, but we don’t fold, we transform and roll, when we tap into our souls! If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
