4 Tha Old $chool by Miles B. Lyrics
Intro- Louis Farrakhan Speech
(Verse 1)
We gotta pay homage
Respect those who came before
Opened doors
Think about the people
That
Had to break the law
To ensure
/
That we rise above
And never fall
I'm waiting on the day
I can applaud
The efforts of the human race
We all live in joy
Until then
I'm living in reality
Full all of the polices
America acknowledge that
You put us in poverty
Look
Look what it took
Strong black men and women who weren't shook
Of the looks
From them
Prejudice crooks
This is for our heroes that will never make a text book
The same ones that probably got all their kids their texts books
The same ones that made a sacrifice
For the next
What the next look like ?
Will the next live right ?
Will the next generation fight ?
I dunno I hope so tho
(Hook)
I pay paymage
To the old school
Cuz the new school
Need to know Where we from x2
(Bridge)
If we knew were we came from
That would change the Way we live
If they knew we're we came from
Then maybe then they would let us live
Let us live
We gotta see the sacrifice
We gotta see the sacrifice
(Do you see it, do you see it?)
We gotta see we are the sacrifice
We gotta see we are the sacrifice
(Verse 1)
We gotta pay homage
Respect those who came before
Opened doors
Think about the people
That
Had to break the law
To ensure
/
That we rise above
And never fall
I'm waiting on the day

The efforts of the human race
We all live in joy
Until then
I'm living in reality
Full all of the polices

You put us in poverty
Look
