Face The Morning Sun

Jackson Turner - 《Long Time Coming》

I could feel it when I

face the morning sun

keep your faith until you

face the morning sun

freedom fighter Imma

face the morning sun

till you breathing it don’t ever stop believing in that

unafraid of when I

face the morning sun

on my feet until I

face the morning sun

freedom fighter Imma

face the morning sun

till you breathing it don’t ever stop believing in that

Everything that they stole

Each nickel they own

Every slave that they sold into chains to pay for they gold

Everything they don’t teach us try to keep us controlled

The evil ones all reap what they sow

We sick and tired of them committing crimes

Under they’re two piece suit and tie I could see right through they lies

Even if I need to keep feeding the fire till it get hot

We gonna find a way to survive through the night

They forgot about the people they drop bombs on and shot

Nobody seeming to care; profits before lives

They leave our bodies to die but who man and who God?

Over dollars divided they rule us

They’re spreading rumors to try to confuse us

They think we’re stupid we let them loot us our necks are in nooses and now

Some people on that evolution bumping rebel tunes

And I guess that for them ghetto youth there’s nothing left to lose

I could feel it when I

face the morning sun

keep your faith until you

face the morning sun

freedom fighter Imma

face the morning sun

till you breathing it don’t ever stop believing in that

unafraid of when I

face the morning sun

on my feet until I

face the morning sun

freedom fighter Imma

face the morning sun

till you breathing it don’t ever stop believing in that

Every child they starved every severed leg and arm

All the experiments the torture chambers forced labor

Colonist they colonized our ancestors they massacred in genocide

Now their children tell us let it slide

While sitting on the profits of our legacy of suffering

Fully aware of all the blood their money’s covered in

We built ourselves business and cities they bun them down

We tried protesting peacefully they gunned us down

Enough’s enough lines been crossed time is up

We are unifying organizing rising up

Like the morning sun that will rise on a new day

When we’ve slaughtered our oppressors

Brought about a new way

Stood up like men and women reborn human once more

Building a future that we’ve fought and endured for

It can’t be perfect Utopia is an impossible dream

We’ll face our obstacles and overcome to live life free

I could feel it when I

face the morning sun

keep your faith until you

face the morning sun

freedom fighter Imma

face the morning sun

till you breathing it don’t ever stop believing in that

unafraid of when I

face the morning sun

on my feet until I

face the morning sun

freedom fighter Imma

face the morning sun

till you breathing it don’t ever stop believing in that
