] One They been telling us for years that we're a part of something Selling us their tears Soldiers in their army, how they lust for fear And we're not gonna take it any longer We go back so far, from kings and queens of Africa We stand so tall. Build up brick by brick so we could read the stars And we're not gonna stay down any longer Pre-People'll tell you anything Tell you what song to sing Are we moving forward, or are we... (Are we goin'?) Swallowed up and whole, in the belly of the beast... You can lose your soul. DOn't you take their bait, have some self control... Think they got you where they want you don't go down, down, down. Though the past is gone, know your history my brother Keep us strong. And our sisters and our mothers, generations on... Will be talked of like the Queens of Mother Earth Pre-People'll tell you anything... Sell your soul for gold and tings. Are we goin' forward or are we... (Are we goin'?) Going Nowhere? Going nowhere? Pre-People'll tell you anything Tell you what song to sing Are we movin' forward, now? (Are we going?) Or are we... Going Nowhere? Going nowhere?
