Khalid Abdul Muhammad:
A♭
When I say Jesus, I'm not talking about some blond-haired,
blue-eyed, pale-skinned, buttermilk complexion cracker Christ.
I'm talking about the Jesus of the Bible, with hair like lamb's wool.
I'm talking about that good hair,
I'm talking about that nappy hair.
That his body would be like beryl.
Another scripture said his body would be like jasper.
Another scripture said his body would be like fine brass,
as though it had been burned in an oven.

Jesus: the Lord, the Savior, the Master, the Redeemer.
G♭ D♭ G♭
Jesus, the Black revolutionary Messiah. Taken up on the hill,
up on the mountain by Satan, by the Devil.
D♭
And the Devil talked about a New World Order.
G♭
The devil talked about giving Jesus all of this world out there,
D♭ G♭ D♭ G♭
if Jesus would just seek an alliance with him, if he would just bow down to him.
D♭ G♭
And I say to you here tonight, devil: get thee behind me, Satan.
Get thee behind me, Satan
Fred Hampton:
D♭
Black people need some peace, white people need some peace.
G♭
And we are going to have to fight, we're going to have to struggle,
D♭ G♭
we're going to have to struggle relentlessly to bring about some peace
because the people that we're asking for peace,
D♭ G♭
they're a bunch of megalomaniac war-mongers, and they don't even understand
what peace means.
We've got to fight them,
we've got to struggle with them to make them understand what peace means

(Say know what I'm saying)
A♭
They're gonna send me over the hill

But oh!
