Who Stole The Soul Lyrics

    Shocklee - sadler - ridenhour

    Once again, this is it
    Turn it up
    Here we go
    But this time the rhyme
    Gonna ask who did the crime
    Then let's get down to the nitty-gritty
    Like i wanna know who
    Picked wilson's pocket
    Afth, he rocket it
    Fact, he shocked it
    Same kinna thing they threw at james
    An what did to redd was a shame
    The the black get
    The bigger the feds want
    A piece of that ... booty
    Intentional rape system, like we ain't
    Payed enough in this bitch, that's why i dissed them
    I learned we earned, got no concern
    Instead we burned so where the hell is our return?
    Plain and simp the system's a pimp
    But i refuse to be a ho
    Who stole the soul?

    Ain't, no, different
    Than in south africa
    Over here they'll go after ya to steal your soul
    Like over there they stole our gold
    Yo they say the black don't know how to act
    'cause we're waitin' for the big payback
    But we know it'll never come
    That's why i say come and get some
    Why when the black move it, jack move out
    Come to stay jack moves away
    Ain't we all people?
    How the hell can a color be no good for a neighborhood
    Help, straighten me out
    'cause my tribe gets a funny vibe
    They i'm wrong for singin' a song
    Without solutions
    All the dancers answer questions
    And try to be the best and...
    Let everybody know before i blow
    For the sake of what's right
    I wanna know who stole the soul?

    We choose to use their ways
    And holidays notice some of them are heller days
    Invented bye those who never repented
    For the sins within that killed my kin
    But that's all right
    I try do what a brother does
    But i'll never know if you're my cuz
    That's why i try my best to unite
    And damn the rest if they don't like it
    Banned from many arenas
    Word from the motherland
    Has anybody seen her
    Jack was nimble, jack was quick
    Got a question for jack ask him
    40 acres and a mule jack
    Where is it why'd you try to fool the black
    It wasn't you, but you pledge allegiance
    To the red, white, and blue
    Sucker that stole the soul!
