AM I HUMAN

Lyrics: Samora Pinderhughes/Elliott Skinner/Keith LaMar/Bobby Gonz/Dani Murcia Music: Samora Pinderhughes/Jack DeBoe/Chris Pattishall/Ron Gilmore Am I human? Are you a god Is it right for you To decide my life Got me workin all day no pay No peace for me to find There’s no reason for me to try But I will survive Everything you own comes at a price An amount you decide Out of sight out of mind Lies make it real easy to break my heart In these four walls They built so tall I build it all Long days in the hot sun Long hours no pay no say and a shotgun It’s written on a page so I can’t run This sentence is a wage And My hands grow heavy Like lead I carry The truth you buried Am I human? Are you a god Is it right for you To decide my life Got me workin all day no pay No peace for me to find There’s no reason for me to try But I will survive Am I human? Are you a gun Is it right for you To decide my life Got me workin all day no pay No peace for me to find What’s the price for all the history we hide? in The Year Of The Unknown i Shed A Tear For The Unborn Overhearin’ Those Adherin’ - To The folkLore May They Know The Spirit Of The Lord iz What They Tongue For & Never Waste A Day Sharing That Tier With The Sun Scorned i Was in The Lab Ain’t Even Have To Send Me Up Nort Now The Whole State’z My City- Thatz What itz Done For As Nationz Prepared To Declare War i Sat & Swung Sword Lashin At These Pagez Like We May Just Be The Last Generation To Ever Come Forth Why Would i Punt For? i Was Chosen To Leave These Romanz in An Uproar This Coliseum Aint Screamin Enough i Want More- FREE ALL MY MODERN DAY SLAVEZ Whoz’z facez you’ve ignored Too Many Fell For Anything While Standing For What They Felt Was Everything Turned Out To Be A SHAM Even Knelt On Bended Knee Cuz Every Alphabet Endz With a Z And ima Die As A Sty To The One Eyed King My Fam Am I human? Are you a god Is it right for you To decide my life Got me workin all day no pay No peace for me to find There’s no reason for me to try But I will survive Am I human? Are you a gun Is it right for you To decide my life Got me workin all day no pay No peace for me to find What’s the price for all the history we hide Tell me - what’s the source of your self regard? When you look in the mirror, can you see the truth at all? Do you have a sense of all the suffering you’ve caused? All the agony you produced by reducing human beings to things All the broken souls you forced to dream the dream Tell me - What is the price for all this pain? You must think you a God, huh? Are you a god Is it right for you To decide my life Got me workin all day no pay No peace for me to find What’s the price for all the history we hide ?
