lyrics

mumia
one born in philadelphia
one gift to communicate with word
speaking out against oppression
oh god that you would do the same

one day
inna roadblock
one brother
is there trouble in the air
and when the bullets blast
confusion
oh god
who is the victim there

voice of the voiceless
singin hold your heart open
speak truth to power
and shine your light
upon the world

one sitting there in judgement
one stands
as the heavy gavel fell
no mercy for the guilty
oh god here come the hooded men


one living life in bondage
one cage
too small to silence truth
one more
battle in the struggle
oh god when shall we see the day
