Lyrics
**Chorus:**
Ah yo yo give me a funky ass baseline
Give me a beat so sweet to something I can rhyme.
It's the time, the time for the people to stand up
All my black strong people, put your hands up
**Verse 1:**
From the streets of Shaolin, we rise to the top
With a mic in my hand, never plan to stop
Life's a battle, but we fight and we grind
In the face of struggle, still we shine
Power in our hearts, strength in our veins
Overcoming the past, breaking the chains
History's heavy, but our spirits ain't broke
Lifting up each other with every word we spoke
**Verse 2:**
Echoes of ancestors, whispers in the night
Guiding us forward, into the light
We reclaim our pride, our culture and our name
Rising from the ashes, igniting the flame
Voices united, we roar and we scream
For justice, for peace, for the ultimate dream
With every step forward, breaking new ground
In the rhythm of revolution, our power is found
**Chorus:**
Ah yo yo give me a funky ass baseline
Give me a beat so sweet to something I can rhyme.
It's the time, the time for the people to stand up
All my black strong people, put your hands up
**Verse 3:**
In the cypher of life, we spit the truth
From the elders' wisdom to the fire of youth
Together we stand, divided we fall
Answering the call, for justice for all
Rhymes that inspire, beats that uplift
Through the struggle and pain, we find our gift
In unity and love, our legacy thrives
For the culture, for the people, keeping the dream alive
**Chorus:**
Ah yo yo give me a funky ass baseline
Give me a beat so sweet to something I can rhyme.
It's the time, the time for the people to stand up
All my black strong people, put your hands up
[Fade out]
