X Ressurection - Steel Pulse

Malcolm X

Malcolm X

Born in imaha Nebraska

May 19 year 25

Was the son of a Garvey teacher

We will keep his name alice

Youthful years were full of adventure

Drifted to a life of crime

In jail he learned to be our leader

Thank God he was released on time

Spoke out gainst Jim Crows in justice

And never turned the other cheek

There’s no room for non violent protest

Yes these words were what he preached

Taught us bout Pan Africanism

To put my people back on their feet

Take what’s ours robbed by the system

He said by any means

Let Malcolm live through us

Black liberation is a must

Let Malcolm live through us

Black liberation is a must

They have tried to rid his name

From hstory books and magazines

They even tried to criticise

His greatness and philosophy

Against all kinds of exploitation

For all of us he bore the pain

We won’t let him be forgotten

No he did not die in vain

Put away the misconception

That he came to teach us hate

So wake up from your sleep and slumber

Wake up before its too late

We need to resurrect that spirit

A lease of life the people need

To fight resistance from the system

He said by any means

Let Malcolm live through us

Black liberation is a must

Let Malcolm live through us

Black liberation is a must

By any means by any means

By any means necessary
