LAQUAN - Swing Blue, Sweat Black lyrics

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it..

[VERSE 1: Laquan]

Swing blue and sweat black a massive strain is on my brain

400 years of pain are flowing through my veins

The fight is for glory, the cause is mandatory

Stress, strife, the price you pay in life

Heads rattle between a skin battle

Purpose is worthless, hell met the surface

Earthly desires have kept you spiritually dead

Look beyond and your starving soul is fed

Some have strayed from Afrocentric ways

On a never ending quest for better days

Many sin, peace is made within

No time to spare, the clock continues to spin

I have a question, why test a

Brother who can still feel the pain of his ancestors?

(Stand up) Pledge of allegiance, of what?

Burn the flag, system is unjust

Shocked, your mouth dropped, you wonder why I said that

Swing blue and sweat black

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it..

[VERSE 2: Laquan]

Seeking survival in a world of wickedness

Whether so-called good or hypocrites

Gotta defend the home I descend

Frighten my color might cover when blend

Times are tough, can't give up, I'm livin in mud

Divine truth only comes through flesh and blood

Must survive in the jungle of concrete

The zone where the wicked enslave the meek

Enemies suffer, disciples prevail

We shall now be the head, no longer the tail

My providence is purified guidance, spiritually

So what if you don't dance as long as you're hearin me

Rhythmic influence with a mental contact

Swing blue and sweat black

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it..

[VERSE 3: Laquan]

Blood shed, a young brother lies dead

He was shot by cop the other night

He didn't pack a gun or knife

He didn't stop when the cops said "freeze!" and lost his life

Tears flood his mother's eyes, she wonders why

Skin is the reason her son died

Death is death, in any case it's still sin

Why must the system use death as discipline

When will this color war come to an end

And do the good still always win?

Hell is on Earth, we gotta work, I mean break our back

Swing blue and sweat black

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it

Swing it..
