    In the Spirit of God
    In the Spirit of the Ancestors
    In the Spirit of the Black Panthers
    In the Spirit of Assata Shakur
    We make this movement towards freedom
    For all those who have been oppressed, and all those in the struggle
    Yeah, yo, check it
    There were lights and sirens, gunshots firing
    Cover your eyes as I describe a scene so violent
    Seemed like a bad dream, she laid in a blood puddle
    Blood bubbled in her chest, cold air brushed against open flesh
    No room to rest, pain consumed each breath
    Shot twice wit her hands up
    Police questioned but shot before she answered
    One Panther lost his life, the other ran for his
    Scandalous the police were as they kicked and beat her
    Comprehension she was beyond, tryin' to hold on
    To life. She thought she'd live with no arm
    That's what it felt like, got to the hospital, eyes held tight
    They moved her room to room-she could tell by the light
    Handcuffed tight to the bed, through her skin it bit
    Put guns to her head, every word she got hit
    "Who shot the trooper?" they asked her
    Put mace in her eyes, threatened to blast her
    Her mind raced till things got still
    Opened her eyes, realized she's next to her best friend who got killed
    She got chills, they told her, that's where she would be next
    Hurt mixed wit anger-survival was a reflex
    They lied and denied visits from her lawyer
    But she was building as they tried to destroy her
    If it wasn't for this German nurse they would of served her worse
    I read this sister's story, knew that it deserved a verse
    I wonder what would happen if that would of been me?
    All this shit so we could be free, so dig it, y'all
    I'm thinkin' of Assata, yes
    Listen to my Love, Assata, yes
    Your Power and Pride is beautiful
    May God bless your Soul
    It seemed like the middle of the night when the law awakened her
    Walkie-talkies crackling, I see 'em when they taking her
    Though she kinda knew,
    What made the ride peaceful was the trees and the sky was blue
    Arrived to Middle-sex Prison about six inna morning
    Uneasy as they pushed her to the second floor in
    A cell, one cot, no window, facing hell.
    Put in the basement of a prison wit all males
    And the smell of misery, seat-less toilets and centipedes
    She'd exercise, (paint?,) and begin to read
    Two years in a hole. Her soul grew weak
    Away from people so long she forgot how to speak
    She discovered freedom is a unspoken sound
    And a wall is a wall and can be broken down
    Found peace in the Panthers she went on trial with
    One of the brothers she had a child with
    The foulness they would feed her, hopin she's lose her seed
    Held tight, knowing the fight would live through this seed
    In need of a doctor, from her stomach she's bleed
    Out of this situation a girl was conceived
    Separated from her, left to mother the Revolution
    And lactated to attack hate
    Cause federal and state was built for a Black fate
    Her emptiness was filled with beatings and court dates
    They fabricated cases, hoping one would stick
    And said she robbed places that didn't exist
    In the midst of threats on her life and being caged with Aryan whites
    Through dark halls of hate she carried the light
    I wonder what would happen if that would of been me?
    All of this shit so we could be free.
    Yeah, I often wonder what would happen if that would f been me?
    All of this shit so we could be free, so dig it, people
    I'm thinkin' of Assata, yes
    Listen to my Love, Assata, yes
    Your Power and Pride is beautiful
    May God bless your Soul
    Yo
    From North Carolina her grandmother would bring
    News that she had had a dream
    Her dreams always meant what they needed them to mean
    What made them real was the action in between
    She dreamt that Assata was free in they old house in Queens
    The fact that they always came true was the thing
    Assata had been convicted of a murder she couldna done
    Medical evidence shown she couldna shot the gun
    It's time for her to see the sun from the other side
    Time for her daughter to be by her mother's side
    Time for this Beautiful Woman to become soft again
    Time for her to breathe, and not be told how or when
    She untangled the chains and escaped the pain
    How she broke out of prison I could never explain
    And even to this day they try to get to her
    But she's free with political asylum in Cuba.
    I'm thinkin' of Assata, yeah
    Listen to my Love, Assata, yeah
    We're molded from the same mud, Assata
    We share the same Blood, Assata, yeah
    Your power and pride, so beautiful
    May God bless your soul
    Your power and pride, so beautiful
    May God bless your soul
    Freedom! You askin' me about freedom
    Asking me about freedom?
    I'll be honest with you
    I know a whole more about what freedom isn't
    Than about what it is, cause I've never been free
    I can only share my vision with you of the future
    About what freedom is
    Uh, the way I see it
    Freedom is, is the right to grow, is the right to blossom
    Freedom is is the right to be yourself, to be who you are
    To be who you want to be, to do what you want to do

    Время для ее дочери быть рядом с матерью
    Время для этой красивой женщины снова станет мягкой
    Время для нее дышать и не сказать, как и когда
    Она распутала цепи и избежала боли
    Как она вырвалась из тюрьмы, я никогда не мог объяснить
    И даже по сей день они пытаются добраться до нее
    Но она свободна с политическим убежищем на Кубе.
    Я думаю, что Ассата, да
    Слушай мою любовь, Ассата, да
    Мы сформированы из той же грязи, Ассата
    Мы разделяем одну и ту же кровь, ассата, да
    Твоя сила и гордость, такая красивая
    Да благословит Бог твою душу
    Твоя сила и гордость, такая красивая
    Да благословит Бог твою душу
    Свобода! Вы спрашиваете меня о свободе
    Спрашивая меня о свободе?
    Я буду честен с тобой
    Я знаю больше о том, что не свобода
    Чем о том, что есть, потому что я никогда не был свободен
    Я могу поделиться только своим видением с вами о будущем
    О том, что такое свобода
    Эээ, как я это вижу
    Свобода - это право на рост, является правом расцветать
    Свобода - это право быть собой, быть тем, кем вы есть
    Быть тем, кем хочешь быть, делать то, что хочешь.
