Mumia Abu Jamal



Canzone dedicata a Mumia Abu Jamal, attivista, scrittore e giornalista statunitense condannato a morte ingiustamente per l'omicidio del poliziotto Daniel Faulkner.
I RATM si sono battutti molto per la sua liberazione.

Mumia Abu Jamal รจ un giornalista nero noto per le sue battaglie contro la corruzione della amministrazione e della polizia in Pennsylvania.
Conosciuto come "la voce dei senza voce", Jamal ha vissuto una vita vibrante di lotta dalla parte dei poveri, i neri e gli espropriati negli U.S.A. e anche dalle spaventose condizioni del braccio della morte, continua a parlare come portavoce degli oppressi in articoli che compaiono regolarmente nei giornali di tuttto il paese.
UGH!, UGH!
C'mon, check it

Through steel walls
Your voice blastin' on
True rebel my brother Mumia
I reflect upon
You be tha spark
That set tha prairie fires on
Make tha masses a mastodon path
To trample tha 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 tha smoke and tha breeze
My panther my brother
We are at war until you're free

You'll never silence tha voice of tha voiceless
You'll never silence tha voice of tha voiceless

You see tha powerful got nervous
Cause he refused to be their servant
'Cause he spit truth
And burned like black churches
Prose and verses
A million poor in hearses
Watch tha decision of Dred Scott
As it reserves
So long as tha 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 tha smoke in tha breeze
My panther my brother we are at war until you're free

You'll never silence tha voice of tha voiceless
You'll never silence tha voice of tha voiceless
You'll never silence tha voice of tha voiceless
You'll never silence tha voice of tha voiceless

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
