People have you met the new Jim Crow?
The bottle is new but the wine is old
Some things in life just never change
Like the Babylon system and how they run their game
They used to swing black bodies from the trees
Now they lock em in a cell and they throw away the keys
Ghetto youths don’t really stand a chance
Every single day is like a dangerous match
Look out son, it’s time to run
Cause the cops are rolling up and they pulling out (reaching for) their guns
And we’re singing
Stop and Frisk
We are at risk
Brown or black
Better watch your back
The police dem a come and launch dey attack
People don’t you know that the new Jim Crow has got to go
We’ve got to overthrow
The new Jim Crow
Let me introduce the new Jim Crow
Different channel, different time slot
But the same old show
Nowadays it’s a crime if you don’t look "right"
They can snatch you from the street any day or night
In a system that feeds it’s poor to the rich
The taser gun has replaced the switch
They say just work hard and you can live the dream
Then they beat us in the streets
Bring us down to our knees
So this is what we singin’
Stop and Frisk
We are at risk
Brown or black
Better watch your back
The police dem a come and launch dey attack
People don’t you know that the new Jim Crow has got to go
We’ve got to overthrow
The new Jim Crow

Baby girl
She's my pearl
She's my life
She's my world
Confident
Intelligent
Most beautiful
I ever met
I was feelin oh so bad
Never felt so blue
Sleepin' on a cold hard floor
Didn't know what to do
Knocked to my knees by love
Down on my luck
Wasn't lookin' for no miracles
Just some help to get up
Then one magical night
She happened my way
Her smile pierced through my clouds
And her love just blew me away
Yanira
Baby it's true
Every single day I will cherish you
Yanira
When you took my hand
You lead me straight into the promised land
Yanira
Baby it's true
Every single day I will cherish you
Yanira
When you took my hand
You lead me straight into the promised land
Wasn't lookin' for another love
But what could I say
She satisfied my heart and mind
In every way
People said don't do it man
It's not what it seems
I told 'em that my heart don't lie
This woman stepped out of a dream
When I held her in my arms
I couldn't let go
Now I call this girl my wife
And her love has captured my soul
Yanira
Baby it's true
Every single day I will cherish you
Yanira
When you took my hand
You lead me straight into the promised land

Brothers and Sisters
Have you heard.
They’ve been listenin’ to our calls
Scanning every word.
But when we ask them
To lend a helping hand
They don’t listen to a word we say
They claim they can’t understand
Working two jobs
Still it just ain’t enough
Trying to keep their bellies full
Has never been so tough
Everyday’s a struggle
Just trying to make ends meet
Get sick and miss a week of work
And we’ll be living on the street
They push, they shove, they chip away
We scratch, we claw, we find a way
They lie, they cheat, they steal our pay
We live, to fight, another day
Don’t give up the struggle-unite
People got to stand up and fight (repeat)
The rich get richer
And the poor get poorer
They’re ringing us for every cent
And yet they still want more
Our Mothers & Sisters
Doin’ the best they can
But no matter how hard they work
They won’t be paid like a man
Profits over people
That’s the name of their game
But the people have had enough
And we refuse to play
So when they tell us
That there’s no other way
The people must chant them down
The hour’s getting late
They spy, harass, and hack away
We must resist, and disobey
They say that we should hope and pray
There’s got to be another way
Don’t give up the struggle – unite
People got to stand up and fight
Don’t give up the struggle – unite
Brothers got to put up a fight
Don’t give up the struggle – unite
Sisters got to fight for what’s right.
