In the of God
In the Spirit of the
In the Spirit of the Black
In the of Assata Shakur
We make this movement towards
For all those who been oppressed, and all those in the struggle
Yeah, yo, it

There were lights and sirens, firing
Cover eyes as I describe a scene so violent
Seemed like a bad dream, she laid in a puddle
Blood bubbled in her chest, cold air brushed open flesh
No to rest, pain consumed each breath
twice wit her hands up
Police questioned but shot she answered
One Panther lost his life, the ran for his
Scandalous the police were as kicked and beat her
she was beyond, tryin' to hold on
To life. She thought she'd with no arm
That's what it like, got to the hospital, eyes held tight
moved her room to room-she could tell by the light
Handcuffed to the bed, through her skin it bit
Put guns to her head, every she got hit
"Who shot the trooper?" asked her
Put mace in her eyes, threatened to her
Her mind raced till things got
Opened her eyes, realized she's to her best friend who got killed
She got chills, they told her, where she would be next
Hurt mixed wit was a reflex
They lied and denied visits her lawyer
But she was as they tried to destroy her
If it wasn't for this German nurse would of served her worse
I read this sister's story, knew it deserved a verse
I wonder what would happen if would of been me?
All shit so we could be free, so dig it, y'all

I'm of Assata, yes
to my Love, Assata, yes
Your Power and Pride is
May God bless Soul

It seemed like the middle of the night when the law her
Walkie-talkies crackling, I see 'em when taking her
she kinda knew,
What made the ride peaceful was the trees and the sky was
Arrived to Middle-sex Prison six inna morning
Uneasy as they pushed her to the second in
A cell, one cot, no window, hell.
Put in the of a prison wit all males
And the smell of misery, toilets and centipedes
She'd exercise, (paint?,) and to read
Two years in a hole. Her soul weak
Away from people so she forgot how to speak
She discovered is a unspoken sound
And a wall is a wall and can be broken
Found peace in the Panthers she on trial with
One of the she had a child with
The foulness they would her, hopin she's lose her seed
Held tight, knowing the fight live through this seed
In need of a doctor, from her stomach bleed
Out of this situation a was conceived
from her, left to mother the Revolution
And lactated to attack
federal and state was built for a Black fate
Her emptiness was filled with beatings and dates
They cases, hoping one would stick
And said she places that didn't exist
In the midst of threats on her life and being caged Aryan whites
Through dark halls of hate she the light
I wonder what happen if that would of been me?
All of this shit so we be free.
Yeah, I often what would happen if that would f been me?
All of shit so we could be free, so dig it, people

I'm of Assata, yes
to my Love, Assata, yes
Your and Pride is beautiful
May God your Soul

Yo
From North Carolina her would bring
that she had had a dream
Her dreams always meant what they them to mean
What made them real was the in between
She dreamt Assata was free in they old house in Queens
The that they always came true was the thing
Assata had been of a murder she couldna done
Medical shown she couldna shot the gun
It's time for her to see the sun from the side
Time for her daughter to be by her mother's
for this Beautiful Woman to become soft again
Time for her to breathe, and not be told how or
She untangled the chains and the pain
How she broke out of I could never explain
And even to day they try to get to her
But she's free political asylum in Cuba.

I'm of Assata, yeah
to my Love, Assata, yeah
We're molded from the mud, Assata
We share the Blood, Assata, yeah
Your power and pride, so
May God bless your
power and pride, so beautiful
May God bless soul

Freedom! You askin' me freedom
Asking me about
I'll be with you
I know a whole more what freedom isn't
Than about what it is, cause I've never free
I can only share my vision with you of the
what freedom is
Uh, the way I see it
Freedom is, is the to grow, is the right to blossom
is is the right to be yourself, to be who you are
To be who you to be, to do what you want to do
