Current song lyrics
Black man, born free,<br />At least that's the way it's supposed to be;<br />The chains that bind him are hard to see,<br />Unless you take this walk with me;<br /><br />The place where he lives, God, he gives them names ?<br />The ?Hood, ?The Projects, ?The Ghetto; they are one and the same;<br />And I call it ?Soulsville' ah, yeah.<br /><br />Any kind of job is hard to find,<br />That means an increase in the welfare line;<br />The crime rate is rising too, but<br />If you are hungry, what would you do?<br /><br />The rent is two months past due, in a building that's falling apart,<br />Little boy needs a new pair of shoes, and this is only a part of ? Soulsville<br /><br />Some of the brothers' got plenty of cash, tricks on the corner is going to see to that,<br />Some like to smoke and some like to blow, some are even strung out on a $50 jones <br />Trying to ditch reality, by getting so, high,<br />Only to find out, that you can never reach the sky, ?because your roots are in ?Soulsville Oh, yes they are.<br /><br />Every Sunday morning, I can hear the church sisters sing ?Hallelujah, Hallelujah,<br />Trusting the Lord to make a way, oh yeah;<br />I hope that He hears their prayers, because deep in their souls they believe,<br />Someday He'll put an end to all this misery that we have in ?Soulsville<br />All yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Hmmmmmmmmm
