Dt. - For Slaves Lyrics

They need slaves
Your father, and your brother, and your uncle all of them up in chains
It's just pain
Your family and your language and your name all of it getting changed
To something strange
Your sister, and your mother, and your aunt all of them getting raped
Trying to tell you it aint no place safe
It be centuries until we make our escape
They doing raids
Once you caged
Then you transformed from a living soul into chattel for a trade
They heard your fame
And they came half-way across the world just to turn it into shame
Once you slain
Then you getting castrated and your body getting thrown in the flames
Type of shit that leave a mental stain
After that the people gone be tamed
But it's something that remained
First it was rage
As it aged
Then it couldn't be exchanged, for a wage
To be obtained
Then you got to go through the type of test that these niggas can't grade
When we stayed true they strayed
When they made fools we sage
No difference from the boos and the raves
Walking in the shoes they crave
F*ck playing by the rules they made

They need slaves
They'll take your mind or your body cause to them it's all the same
You in chains
And you won't fight back when it's time cause your brain
Been trained
To abstain
And to look the other way, on the day, that your people being slain
I increased they decayed
Go and took my people out the grave
