Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have outlined the number of differences amongst the slaves
I take these differences and make them bigger
I use fear, distrust and envy
I am Willie Lynch, your greatest enemy
[Verse 2]
If you see a brother going down
And you're trying to push him further
You're Willie Lynching, yes you're Willie Lynching
[Verse 3]
The system set to keep the family out there fighting
And the slave master rejoicing
When we all are one skin
The system set, but I would never make a brother a victim
To keep the slave master rejoicing
And we all are one skin
[Verse 4]
Hey out in the streets, yute dem hustlin' and ah look food fi eat
And Babylon control dem thinkin'
Put one against another, sharpen dem teeth
It makes no sense, fighting for master, we're out and what leff?
Tell me who, how, what it profits, you, oh
[Verse 5]
The system set to keep the family out there fighting
And the slave master rejoicing
And we all are one skin
The system set, but I would never make a brother a victim
To keep the slave master rejoicing
And we all are one skin
[Verse 6]
Hey, in the race for a dollar, friends turn sour, mama 'gainst dada
I tell ya gun shot shower over rice and flour, this we can't allow no more
It makes no sense, fighting for food, I'd rather wait till harvest
Tell me who, how, what it profits, you, hey
[Verse 7]
The system set to keep the family out there fighting
And the slave master rejoicing
When we are all one skin
The system set, but I would never make a brother a victim
To keep the slave master rejoicing
When we are all one skin
[Verse 8]
Give you a lick of power and the oppressed becomes the oppressor
Slave master change him color
A little guy named Willie control your head
With the better dancing Joe
You're Willie Lynching, yes you're Willie Lynching
[Verse 9]
Hey out in the streets, yute dem hustlin' and ah look food fi eat
And Babylon control dem thinkin'
Put one against another, sharpen dem teeth
It makes no sense, fighting for master, we're out and what leff?
Tell me who, how, what it profits, you? Oh
[Verse 10]
Dem system set to keep the family out there fighting
And the slave master rejoicing
And we all are one skin
Dem system set, but I would never make a brother a victim
To keep the slave master rejoicing
When we all are one skin
[Verse 11]
I am made because I am fairer and thinner
I reject her because she fatter and blacker
You're only Willie Lynching, yes, you're Willie Lynching
You're Willie Lynching
Getting the opportunity to pursue a degree
Does not give you the right to use it against me
I said you're Willie Lynching, yes, you're Willie Lynching
You're Willie Lynching
[Verse 12]
Hey
Give all a nye a listening ear
Incoming, in a nutshell, the Willie Lynch syndrome
