Twenty-one pounds, twenty-one pounds
Yeah (twenty-one pounds)
So, when Columbus got here
He got off the boat and he said to the first people he saw
"Who are you?"

The God is proud of you with your sword raised in a turban
Columbus said, "Oh, Indians"
The return of the prodigal sire accountable

I'm not moving, I'm just standing still
Back up, back up
Love, patience, brotherhood and unity
We try and we try and we try, if they become a threat...
