Through the art of spoken word with a soulful jazzy track, Kamal Imani flows about the resilience of Black people in the face of oppression. He flows about the deep innate ability to tap into the soul or spirit in order to refresh and resurrect!
lyrics
The enemy strikes black, but we don’t fold, we transform and roll, when we tap into our souls!
We got that melanin sun connection ancestral communication
Going back through the line of divine
We’ve been here through the sands of time
Descendants of original mind
Antagonistic beings wish we’d die, so their hoping
But every time they attack, our first eye’s reopen
Like a lotus flower, then we recollect that, we got the power
Cause we’re tapping into our souls in this final hour!
The enemy strikes black, but we don’t fold, we transform and roll, when we tap into our souls!
You keep coming for us, you oppress with stress
But God’s inside of us, so devil we stay blessed
You think your slick wit yo tricks but it aint about you
It’s about what the people of soul gonna do
We’re resurrecting the grapevine
An remembering the time, that we fell in love
And that the Creator----wants us to love our Black neighbor
When we reunify, we’ll resurrect, and do the works, of the Savior!
The enemy strikes black, but we don’t fold, we transform and roll, when we tap into our souls!
