Let's Go Back


Let’s Go Back!! Let’s Go Back, back in time, where we began to rhyme Singing hymns to kill times, of inequality, let’s go back where we loved each other while marching for justice Let’s Go Back, to where it was second nature to stand against oppression, where we were naturally united fighting discrimination to have liberation Let’s Go Back, and pay tribute to those who fought for the freedoms we have today and show our children we are more than hustles for a quick dollar we were hustlers for change in our communities and government Let's Go Back as a people so we can move forward for our battle of equality that’s still being fought today let's not wait for another leader, let’s act now and stand up for a better tomorrow
