I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm the one that got free, I escaped from the cage
Coming back when you sleep, at your throat with the blade
I'm like Harriet with the .38 in her vertebrae
Ghetto gospel, apostle Nat Turner fate
Outlaw, RBG to the grave
I'm that spook by the door with the map to the maze
I'm Auntie Assata's getaway driver on her prison break
Spirit of the B.L.A., liberating banks
The glitch in the matrix
Slip out of my shackles, grab the whip
And throw the captain off the slave ship
Rebel to enslavement, vow of the Mau Mau
Coupe tete, Boulรฉ Ka, cut head, burn mouth
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I got the blood of Kunta, fighting for my freedom
If I had to lose my life then so be it
So chop off my feet, chop off my hands
Finna roll up out this bitch if I can
Man I'm sick of being held back, sick of being blackballed
Why you think they label me a motherfucking outlaw?
Spirit too bright to be locked in a cage
I release my rage when I'm rocking the stage
Better yet, cocking the gauge, fleeing the plantation
I do this for lost souls ducking them drug cases
I'm burning up my papers and making a few changes
I'm dropping my slave name and rocking with my alias
Young Noble the Pope give hope to young strugglers
You one of us, runaway slaves you should come with us
Noble the Pope give hope to young strugglers
You one of us, runaway slaves you can come with us
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave
I'm a runaway slave

Dr. Mutulu, Auntie Assata
Herbert Bell, Sundiata
We salute you with the highest of honor
H. Rap Brown, Spari X, Aaron Patterson
Free all political prisoners and prisoners of war
Free 'em all
