Panther Power Lyrics

As real as it seems the American Dream

Ain't nothing but another calculated schemes

To get us locked up shot up back in chains

To deny us of the future rob our names

Kept my history of mystery but now I see

The American Dream wasn't meant for me

Cause lady liberty is a hypocrite she lied to me

Promised me freedom, education, equality

Never gave me nothing but slavery

And now look at how dangerous you made me

Calling me a mad man cause I'm strong and bold

With this dump full of knowledge of the lies you told

Promise me emancipation indispute nation

All you gave my people was our patience

Fathers of our country never cared for me

They kept my answer shackled up in slavery

And Uncle Sam never did a dam thing for me

Except lie about the facts in my history

So now I'm sitting hear mad cause I'm unemployed

But the government's glad cause they enjoyed

When my people are down so they can screw us around

Time to change the government now panther power

[Chorus]

Panther power

Panther power

Panther power

[Tyson]

Coming straight that resides within

Go toe to toe with a panther and you just can't win

Suffered fame bats suppressed the rest

The rich get richer and the poor can't last

The American Dream was an American nightmare

You kept my people down and refuse to fight fair

The Klu Klux Klan tried to keep us out

Besides drew they know no blacks allowed

With intimidation and segregation was a way for our freedom

But now were impatient

Blacks the other skin: dead or sell outs

Freedom, equality, then I'll yell out

"Don't you ever be ashamed of what you are

It's ya panther power that makes you a star"

Panther power

[Chorus]

Panther power

Panther power

Panther power

[Tupac]

My Mother never let me forget my history

Hoping I was set free chains never put on me

Wanted to be more than just free

Had to know the true facts about my history

I couldn't settle for being a statistic

Couldn't survive in this capitalistic

Government cause it was meant to hold us back

Using ignorant, drugs, to sneak attack

In my community think of unity

But when I charged them, tried to claim immunity

I strike America like a case of hard disease

Panther power is running through my arteries

Try to stop oh boy you'll be clawed to death

Cause I'll be fighting for my freedom with my dying breath

Do you remember that is what I'm asking you?

You think you living free don't let me laugh at you

Open your eyes realize that you have been locked in chains

Said you wasn't civilized and stole your name

Cause some time has passed seem you all forget

There ain't no liberty to you and me we all ain't free yet

Panter power

[Chorus]

Panther power

Panther power

Panther power

[Tupac]

As real as it seems the American Dream

Ain't nothing but another calculated schemes

To get us locked up shot up back in chains

To deny us of the future rob our names

Kept my history of mystery but now I see

The American Dream wasn't meant for me

Cause lady liberty is a hypocrite she lied to me

Promised me freedom, education, equality

Never gave me nothing but slavery

And now look at how dangerous you made me

Calling me a mad man cause I'm strong and bold

With this dump full of knowledge of the lies you told

Promise me emancipation indispute nation

All you gave my people was our patience

Fathers of our country never cared for me

They kept my answer shackled up in slavery

And Uncle Sam never did a dam thing for me

Except lie about the facts in my history

So now I'm sitting hear mad cause I'm unemployed

But the government's glad cause they enjoyed

When my people are down so they can screw us around

Time to change the government now panther power
