[ Featuring Ric Scales ]
Oh Thurgood Marshall Brown vs Board
Of Education Thou Heard me Lord
Outcries of justice kick down the door
Once one gets freedom we'll demand more
Impartial Scales of Justice
Impartial Scales of Justice
I helped build the bridges that Ruby crossed
The catalyst for the dream in Dr King's thoughts
Was on my Charles Hamilton from the start
'Cause the country tried to keep us in the back like Rosa Parks
Separate but equal, we don't believe you
Yall can front all you want, but watch what we do
Start a revolution and do it legal
Force the Constitution to work for me and my people
The truth is more than a mental exercise
Seen it with my own two eyes, I'll testify
Out in the deep South where Jim Crow flies
So the law works a lil different for my kind
That wasn't how it was designed
And for me that's the reason that people say that justice is blind
One step at a time, we gon March too
I'm Thorough, making sure that the scales are impartial
Oh Thurgood Marshall Brown vs Board
Of Education Thou Heard me Lord
Outcries of justice kick down the door
Once one gets freedom we'll demand more
Impartial Scales of Justice
Impartial Scales of Justice
Impartial Scales of Justice
Impartial Scales of Justice
Racism separates, it never liberates
We've been imprisoned by fear your hatred generates
Then yall wonder why we picket and we demonstrate
Yall should be happy we ain't physically kick in the gates
1954 is when we killed the case
1960 is when they started to intergrate
I wish I could say that we've dissented from hate
So much has changed but we're divided till this day
I helped build the bridges that Ruby crossed
The catalyst for the dream in Dr King's thoughts
I was on my Charles Hamilton from the start
'Cause the country tried to keep us in the back like Rosa Parks
Separate but equal, we don't believe you
Yall can front all you want, but watch what we do
Start a revolution and do it legal
Force the Constitution to work for me and my people
Impartial Scales of Justice
Impartial Scales of Justice
