[00:00.49]We Be (featuring Ursula Rucker) - Wax Tailor
[00:14.26]We Be...
[00:15.07]
[00:25.34]We Be...
[00:26.50]
[00:34.85]We Be...
[00:36.27]travellin' down the highway of the enemy...
[00:38.87]We Be...
[00:40.23]Joinin' the endless convoy of cultural hegemony...
[00:43.51]We Be...
[00:45.14]Missin' the forest for the trees 'cause...
[00:48.47]We can't see the evils that men do
[00:53.77]
[00:54.32]On TV, in the movies, overseas,
[00:59.19]and right here on our street...
[01:01.05]
[01:01.69]We Be...
[01:02.80]Opting for vainglory over humility...
[01:05.40]
[01:06.02]We need... We need...
[01:08.40]
[01:09.99]To break the convoy line
[01:14.03]Get the hell off the highway,
[01:16.22]
[01:17.71]take the road less travelled
[01:19.37]
[01:20.21]'cause that moral fibber you thought was so tightly woven...
[01:23.74]It's unravelling... It's unravelled...
[01:26.26]I hate to tell ya'll, it's unravelled!
[01:28.86]
[01:38.39]We Be...
[01:39.58]
[01:41.00]Say...
[01:42.47]I'm standin' on my soapbox again...
[01:44.93]
[01:45.81]Say...
[01:46.97]I'm one of those conscious artists talkin'
[01:50.18]that "change the world" shit again... Say...
[01:55.02]
[01:55.59]I might be just a bit too dramatic/overzealous
[01:58.86]
[02:00.91]'bout what I see as...
[02:03.77]The human spirit's dive into uncertainty...
[02:07.96]Say... What you like
[02:11.22]Say... What you like...
[02:14.23]'cause I'll be all those things you say...
[02:19.01]all night and all day...
[02:21.84]Before I allow myself and soul...
[02:25.95]to whither away, into... indistinctness
[02:30.79]Live a half-life of blissful ignorance
[02:35.02]Never take another chance
[02:36.91]
[02:38.46]Do the latest dance... with the devil...
[02:42.68]
[02:45.30]And lose my dreams... for all we could be
[02:50.87]Lose my dreams for all we could be...
[02:55.60]We Be
[02:57.76]
[03:06.73]We Be... many
[03:10.64]So many
[03:13.50]Many...
[03:14.68]like the number of death threats Malcolm that used to get
[03:19.99]We Be... many... oh so many...
[03:25.27]Many... like the multitudes of souls,
[03:28.77]lost... in the wars of men...
[03:32.87]Over gold, over power, over god & hate
[03:38.19]We Be... many... so, so many...
[03:44.62]Many... like the lies that pale the truth
[03:49.96]The countless lies of prophets & power mongers... told...
[03:55.84]To acquire faith,
[03:58.01]to steal land...to oppress people...
[04:03.10]We Be the oppressed peoples
[04:05.75]We Be
[04:07.23]We Be
[04:08.37]Why can't We Be more peaceful?
[04:12.68]Why can't We Be... nicer... to one another?
[04:18.16]Why can't We Be...
[04:20.46]We Be... what we were meant to be... love...
[04:25.81]
[04:34.97]We Be...
[04:37.06]
[04:37.76]We Be...
