Rest in peace to Bobby Hutton
And all the legacies it wouldn't seem like I'm in touch with
The prowl underground that they leave out the discussion
Call it "Finders Keepers" and then see how y'all adjustin'
I was lucky where I never had to look far
It was like a lullaby before daddy took off
Singin' how we got to free Huey, we got to free Huey
The vision bright enough where you could prolly see it through me
With my fist up in the air same shade as Little Sambo
Reach for my umbrella, I was raised to let a cannon blow
Pancakes for everyone who need to get their plate filled
Pistols in the kitchen for whoever feel a way still
Younger me taught that the world is under me
And to stand above it is to never stand comfortably
White man come for me? No, I ain't the typical
Ten-Point Program, honor it like it's biblical
All praise due here, and know what to do
If they bring Charles Gain through here, the shit I overheard
Knew the code just like I would get to know a bird
The revolution wasn't televised, but it was spoken word
And I heard every part of it
Bravery and all the worry at the heart of it
Fully loaded clips, no bargaining
Admiring the beauty within all of it
And Alton looked at me like, "Tell me what you thought of it," bruh
The Ten-Point Program: Number one, we want freedom. We want
The power to control the destiny of our Black communities
Number two, we want full employment for our people. Number three
We want an end to the robbery by the white man of our Black
Communities. Number four, we want decent housing fit to shelter
Human beings. Number five, we want education for our people
All power to the people
'Cause your flag on the scale meant y'all power wasn't equal
Taught to take it back, shoot you down to help me reach you
Stories ain't alone, you be bound to get the sequel
Stand to know the risk, yet and still, the Lord's with you
Hand up over fist versus Bill O'Neals and Roy Mitchells
I was privy to it, me and mine is blessed
To say that we can living proof it
The same pride as yesterday is here tomorrow, right?
But if you got some spare time that I could borrow, right?
Then I'd love to put this on pause
Grew up off of strength, I come from pushing the cause
Built different now, I'd love to push you some raw
Built for the crown, won't none of 'em be ignored
They stole my beret, so pardon me if I call for applause
For living through the death of my history
Reparations every time I get a key
My forty and a mule is when they load forty in a mule
For every member they took from us, cordially confused
Panther in my blood, shameful of my business
But the way business been going, shame ain't too expensive
And I heard every part of it
The bravery and all the worry at the heart of it
Fully loaded clips, no bargaining
Admiring the beauty within all of it
And Alton looked at me like, "Tell me what you thought of it"
We must arm ourselves. We have to put a shotgun at every door
From door to door, across this racist nation, Huey P. Newton
Says every Black man, every Mexican-American, every Indian
And every white radical has got to get themselves armed
Ayo, I heard every part of it
Bravery and all the worry at the heart of it
Fully loaded clips, no bargaining
Admiring the beauty within all of it
And Alton looked at me like, "Tell me what you thought of it"
All power to the people
Always
Got to free Huey
Got to free Huey
Got to free Huey
Got to free Huey
Got to free Huey
Got to free Huey
The panther was chosen as their symbol. It is a beautiful Black
Animal which never attacks, but defends itself ferociously
