LYRICS
Verse 1
Its the realest of rhymes
Cause the will is divine
Im still in my prime
I shine with the brilliance of mind
And I should sign for a billion a line
Cause Im aligned with the fulfillment of time
The architect of the building design
Still Im crying cause our children are dying
Self hate is the illness defined
It got us killing our kind
The illest youll find and millions are blind
And cant describe how they feeling inside
We need a healing prescribed
Dear Father what we need is clear water
Accept this mere offer from a sincere author
Cause I hear ya daughters and the pain in their voices
How they gonna make a change if they given the same choices
Barack is a sign so watch how we climb
Cause we more that a pot and a block and a grind
And them glocks and the grime
Getting locked for a crime
What I speak is bleach Clorox for your mind

Chorus-
What Time is it?
This is Our Defining Moment
(3 times)

Even though it seems the time is hopeless

What Time is it?
This is Our Defining Moment
(3 times)

And I will rhyme potent until every minds open

Verse 2
The time is now the rhyme the style
Been in the grave so long now we climbing out
We been afraid so long now we riding out
The rain delayed for days but we survived the drought
And from inside the clouds came the tears of God
I know them years we hard but now we here in charge
And everything that we feared was a mere mirage
Ya feel me? Dont listen with ya ears hear with ya heart
What is now so near once appeared so far
No need to look at the sky cause were those stars
And this little light of mine its only right I shine
If I had a brighter rhyme it would leave the writer blind
These are the fighters times
This is the soldiers anthem
Put on ya black gloves
Like you roll with the Panthers
And Im H. Rap Brown the way I break tracks down
To all thrm fake rap clowns we come to take that crown

Chorus-

Verse 3
We dont make records we make history
Create imagery that penetrates ya memory
Making music that youll never forget
Ill burn a hole in ya conscious pull the stem then I jet
Back to the laboratory black with a tragic story
The cat without a category
Rap is to plastic for me
It lacks the passion the glory of those who passed before me
So I fasted and crafted these master recordings
The Hereafter is dawning
The resurrections in 7 seconds
Im walking through hell carrying heavens message
Cause aint no better weapon
This is measured aggression
What Im givens pearls of wisdom so treasure the lesson
We done weathered oppression, lynching, discrimination
Demonstrations, hardships, like wed been forsaken
But now weve been awakened
This is the end of Satan
Its Our Defining Moment
The time weve been awaiting

Chorus-

[Blacquenhard]

Will Obama free Jamil Al Amin, Mumia Abu Jamal and all the other Black Political Prisoners? What about a pardon for Assata Shakur? Now that would be "Change."

[jasirix]

He would if the people who wanted them free where organized enough to make freeing them a political necessity. What are you doing to organize people where you live to bring attention to any of these cases?
