Lyrics

Fuck how you feel about me
 Say what you will about me
 But lets see how you feel
 When the walls come tumblin down
 When the walls come tumblin doowwn yeaahhh
 When the walls come tumblin down down down
 When the walls come tumblin doowwn yeaahhh
 When the walls come tumblin down
 They say that racism in america's over
 Well tell that to the pigs when they pullin me over
 No eye contact just the gun out the holster
 Plantation overseers, prisons filling their quota
 They call us niggas they call us thugs
 Say we all good for nothing and we all sell drugs
 They call for blood they callin the squadrant
 But I am Oscar Grant, I am Trayvon Martin
 Invisible mad faces at the bottom of the well
 We been through hell
 Still seen 'em turn to life in Henrietta Lacks' cells
 These Uncle Tom's be corrupting the biz
 And it's word to the wire under Al Sharpton's wig
 Pigs still shoot us in the back though
 Regardless of them nigger tweets from Gwyneth Paltrow
 How low do we go to fit in
 Killing ourselves, even bleaching our skin
 Racism biz, satyed right on track
 And none of it changed just because the President's Black
 Fuck that! Gotta condition your brain when you get in there
 To make you believe that the walls always been there
 Preservere in the game without getting your flesh torn
 Gotta get to a square that's not on the chess board
 Invisible walls, classism and privilege
 Even taller than apartheid walls you live with
 Government's a business clouded in smoke
 And when you broke, only real choice Pepsi and Coke
 Motherfuckers build a wall for every reason alive
 But then change the reason when they get you inside
 They built a wall to try to keep terrorists out
 And it becomes symbolic what terrorism's about
 Built a great wall for barbarian neighbors
 And it's trampled by terrorists a thousand years later
 Now they built a wall to keep immigrants out
 But wanna pick and choose the immigrants they talking about (bitch)
 Jericho's wall came tumbling downward
 They hear the car, turns rock and metal to powder
 Rebellious minds, I need you to think louder
 Before they police every thought they encounter
 Jericho's walls came tumbling downward
 When empires fall, you see who laid the groundwork
 You think the spark of revolution's an outburst
 I guess before Jericho, we come to your house first
