[Jeru The Damaja] Too escape the Devil's jaws & prepare for the final wars So when we strike, it's multiple wounds like boss mind thoughts To breakin these laws, I'm thinkin because I tap jaws Burn down broncos and teach ya whores to fight for the cause The beast roars, I don't drink, I'm takin heads like the moors I keep it, jungle naughty, ya put a razor to yours That's crazy fake like house niggas rockin bikini drawers In a pituat force, puttin bombs at Devil's doors Black Diamond, the numerous flaws, blood pours Doin it, feel nigga style, for dreams that died on prison floors Liberate, carnivores that dine on walls And I be fighting even after I reach African shores
The Renegade Slave Weaks lions, surrender their crowns, avoid the battle ground I storm the plantation, take masa head and burn his house down Home bound, pitch black, don't make a sound Renegade Slave flippin, fire a rip thru your town Satin heart pound, whose to smile, now we frown How slaves run around like clowns holding whitey down No more whippin and riggin, I'm shootin plansmen, hit the ground So much blood on the seed, no's left, face down drown Listen, close, cuz the meaning is profound The beats is on my hills, I boogie like James Brown Keep a low pro, communicate underground Cuz no devil alive can scan my sound
Smarter then Frederick Douglas, and wilder then Ike Turner My will to be free, in your eyes makes me a murderer Creepin late night like a burglar, Study his literature When the kings rise again, bells of Bob knows the procedure Uncle Tom, shot on the spot, we don't need ya I know who I am, a warrior like Kunta But not running away, runnin demons into the caves Beware, beware, beware, the Renegade Slave Hittin 'em from every angle, Devil's we strangle And intangle in the web, when we rise again The Renegade Slave's are comin
[Outro] That's right, you know me Don't act like you don't, you see me You know where I'm at, you see when I'm comin But you really don't know, you think you do You never will, But I'm always here And I will rise again, You can't hold me down You can't do it, I won't allow it to happen My will is too strong, I can't be broken It's the Renegade Slave It's the Renegade Slave It's the Renegade Slave
