[Zack de la Rocha] Through steel walls, your voice blastin' on True rebel, my brother, Mumia, I reflect upon You be the spark, that set the prairie fires on Make the masses a mastodon path to trample the fascists on At fifteen exposed Philly's finest killing machine With boots and mad guns, they tried to pacify you young Cause and effect, smell the smoke and the breeze My panther, my brother, we are at war until you're free
[Hook] YOU'LL NEVER SILENCE THE VOICE...OF THE VOICELESS!! YOU'LL NEVER SILENCE THE VOICE OF THE VOICELESS!!
You see the powerful got nervous cause he refused to be their servant 'Cause he spit truth and burned like black churches Prose and verse, a million poor in hearses Watch the decision of Dred Scott as it reserves So long as the rope is tight around Mumia's neck Let there be no rich white life we bound to respect Cause and effect, can't ya smell the smoke in the breeze? My panther, my brother, we are at war until you're free
[Hook] YOU'LL NEVER SILENCE THE VOICE...OF THE VOICELESS!! YOU'LL NEVER SILENCE THE VOICE...OF THE VOICELESS!! YOU'LL NEVER SILENCE THE VOICE...OF THE VOICELESS!! YOU'LL NEVER SILENCE THE VOICE OF THE VOICELESS!!
[*whispers*] And Orwell's hell...a terror era coming through.. But this little brother's watching you too.. And Orwell's hell...a terror era coming through.. But this little brother's...watching you too...watching you too..
