Lyrics

Aw yeah!
He was not or never had been in favor
Of setting our people free, no no
If it wasn't 4 the 13th amendment, oh yessir
We woulda been born in slavery

He was not or never had been in favor, no no no
Of letting us vote, so u see
Abraham lincoln was a racist
Who said, "u cannot escape from history"

Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on wounded knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight
The responsibility

Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on wounded knee
No, no, no, no, no, nobody wants 2 take the weight, the weight
