I will slay the king of poverty

And slit the throats of segregation

For who are we? Who are we?

But mice in a rat’s race

What are cries?

But words to God

What are words to God?

But words

I shall never know the ties of justice

Because justice is not just

Cannot you see the downfall of our brothers?

Cannot you see the need for revolution?

It is time, and I will be remembered

For I will be the leader

The one who goes astray

Because I was never in the race

Kill the man who wants no freedom

Save the man who kills

Cries will ring throughout the cities

But what are cries?
