[Intro]~
Am
[Chorus]~
Am Dm Am
Four hundred years of the same philosophy
Dm Am
Four hundred years and black people,.. they still can't see
[Verse 1]~
C Dm E7
Why do they fight against the youths of today
C Dm E7
And without youths you would be gone,.. all gone astray
[Chorus]~
Am Dm Am
C'mon let's make a move,.. now that the time,.. the time has come
Dm Am
Fools don't see but I know the weak be strong
[Verse 2]~
C Dm E7
So come with me to a land of a liberty
C Dm E7
Where we can live,.. live our lives and be free
[Chorus]~
Am Dm Am
Four hundred years of the same philosophy
Dm Am
Four hundred years and black people still can't see
[Verse 3]~
C Dm E7
Come with me,.. you black and your proud,.. you got to be free
C Dm E7
Stop sittin' down on your pride,.. just get high
[Chorus]~
Am Dm Am
Four hundred years of the same philosophy
Dm Am
Four hundred years,.. why do black people close their eyes
Dm Am
Come to reality,.. you got ability,.. just can't see!!
