dälek – Echoes Of... lyrics

[Verse 1]
Respond to pressure
Viewed by most as lesser
Don't come with fake tears when you chose to play aggressor. Got the strength of ancestors
Compressed in modern form
Ancient text turns to breath when I perform
Fire from these vocal chords!
All these so-called leaders frauds
Spitting lies through weaker jaws
Want us back where we belong
Intellect is mourned by the intelligent
Truths once self-evident
Replaced by vile rhetoric
Content to be your heretic
... i'm surrounded by my derelicts
Forever speak in Dälek
The future? We defining it!
Status quo? Defying it!
The violated violent
The vilest men corrupt so we refuse to keep silent

[Chorus]
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
My People won't kneel!
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
Our Peoples won't kneel!
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
My People Won't Kneel!
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
Trust, we'll never Kneel!

[Verse 2]
Born Nonconformist
On this Earth to serve notice
Hold this weight on broad shoulders Can't explain, they all loathe us
It's Greed that kills soldiers
Precious walls won't hold us...
We them embers set to smolder Both the eyes and beholder Behavior less stable now I'm older Not the one to seek closure
Kept composure through attacks Compositions set to blast
Barely laugh when I'm questioned. Life-times-of-lessons. Write-rhymes-as-weapons

[Chorus]
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
My People won't kneel!
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
Our Peoples won't kneel!
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
My People Won't Kneel!
We the, Echoes of Martin, of Malcolm Of Evers
Of Hampton, Of Seale
Trust, we'll never Kneel!
