Socially Just by Nomis [Rapper] Lyrics
Verse 1:
They want to label us as radicals, uninformed and supposedly nuts/
Because when we speak its emphatical, but thats just the passion, they don't understand the socially just/
See its easy to pass us off as just a "classless, awful group stirring a situation"/
Well I guess thats half true. Its cliché to say but I will stir a generation if I have to/
This is that 25th of Matthew, right now we separate the Sheep from the Goats/
So I seek to provoke the people to at least take a note, so at least they can know the truth that it ain't equal for most/
It ain't equal for so many and transcends any one community or village/
Both locally and globally, theres an issue with distribution of opportunity and privilege/
Well thats socially justice in a nutshell, and how the systems we believe in and we trust fail/
The principles must prevail, get on the same page first then we'll discuss details/
Theres problem that we're facing. If you see a problem in a nation, addressing that problem is your obligation/
Yeah I said it, "Obligation". Because we as a people are one/
We as a people are from the same dust, same dirt, pain thrust the same hurt so we must contain the same worth/
And so we must proclaim the same worth. Hear the musket "bang"!/
No baton but we're all running in this human race. Focus because theres only one of them/
All of us just the same as it pertains to "team name" in this human race, because theres only one of them/
WE ARE THE SOCIALLY JUST
They want to label us as radicals, uninformed and supposedly nuts/
Because when we speak its emphatical, but thats just the passion, they don't understand the socially just/
See its easy to pass us off as just a "classless, awful group stirring a situation"/
Well I guess thats half true. Its cliché to say but I will stir a generation if I have to/
This is that 25th of Matthew, right now we separate the Sheep from the Goats/
So I seek to provoke the people to at least take a note, so at least they can know the truth that it ain't equal for most/
It ain't equal for so many and transcends any one community or village/
Both locally and globally, theres an issue with distribution of opportunity and privilege/
Well thats socially justice in a nutshell, and how the systems we believe in and we trust fail/
The principles must prevail, get on the same page first then we'll discuss details/
Theres problem that we're facing. If you see a problem in a nation, addressing that problem is your obligation/

WE ARE THE SOCIALLY JUST
