Abraham Lincoln was a racist who said
"U cannot escape from history"
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight-
The responsibility

The Harlem Renaissance
Hear Duke Ellington and his band
Kick another jungle jam
Ooh, do u wanna dance?
Who's that lurking in the shadows?
Mr. John Hammond with his pen in hand...

Just like every snowflake in an avalanche...
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight-
The responsability
Of setting r people free
If it wasn't 4 the 13th Amendment

But, u ain't got no money, U ain't got no cash,

Just like every snowflake in an avalanche...
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight-
