Black Moses – Meek Mill (with Pusha T) (feat. Priscilla Renea) (from “The Birth of a Nation” soundtrack)

[Priscilla Renea:]
I been workin’ all day, hmmm ’til the sun go down
Back hurt, feet hurt, but I still got to work
Who gonna save me? Hmmm, break every chain, hmmm
Take me away from this place and leave me work

Runnin’ like I know they comin’ for me
I’m ’bout to spill enough blood to fill the red sea
Fear no evil, ’bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me, that’s just what it’s gon’ be

Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now

[Pusha T:]
Kill ’em, that’s the minimal, only way to fend ’em off
Leave ’em sittin’ at death’s door, proper way to send ’em off
They’ll just beat me ’til the sin is off or my skin is off
Some tried to run, they got tracked down, now our limit’s off
I’m just tryna find the North, let the stars design the course
Hope the mud can hide my scent, pray the night can slow they horse
Got me shackled up in chains, even made me change my name
But they couldn’t trap my mind, this cry for freedom ain’t in vain
See they taught us half the story, didn’t know we came from glory
Years ago we was kings before the boats came and load me
Woo, gotta keep runnin’, gotta keep runnin’
Yeah cause they keep gunnin’, and they keep comin’

[Priscilla Renea:]
Runnin’ like I know they comin’ for me
I’m ’bout to spill enough blood to fill the red sea
Fear no evil, ’bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me, that’s just what it’s gon’ be

Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now

[Meek Mill:]
Slaves, on the North side of Philly
Where they tell their mamas
And go spend that money they made on designer
We shoot at our brothers but run from the coppas
In front of your honor
Beggin’ for freedom, if freedom got free in it
Why it ain’t free than
We go get a lawyer, a liar, that’s descent to meet with the District Attorney agreement
Like take it or leave it, leave it or take it
If we for the takin
I’m finna go straight for the win, (winnin’, winnin’, winnin’)
We started as slaves, we came up from nothin’
If I could live twice, I’d do it again
Again and again, again and again
Who gon’ love your momma on them drugs
Little babies that was never loved
So they run into the corner store
Quarter water only time they get a hug
Get some cocoa, only time they get some work
Say that it be poppin’ on the first
He was poppin’ when he had the money
‘Til they popped him, now he ridin’ in a hearse
This is real shit, nigga, not a verse
People really, really outta work
Kids starving somethin gotta work
Preacher even trappin’ out the church
Put them shackles on my arm and leg
All them days made my body hurt
Locked my brothers all up in the cage
So we turn to prayer, hoping God will work

[Priscilla Renea:]
Runnin’ like I know they comin’ for me
I’m ’bout to spill enough blood to fill the red sea
Fear no evil, ’bout to set my people all free
If they crucify me, that’s just what it’s gon’ be

Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
Black Moses, Moses, woah now
