00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:28,000
Yeah
2
00:00:28,100 --> 00:00:31,500
I sometimes wonder, "What would
I do in the next generation?"
3
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,800
In 1940, if I was enlisted to
fight for the nation, or
4
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:38,100
In 1960, if I had to fight for
the rights of my people
5
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,500
And lay down my life on the line
so my grandkids could live
a life that's peaceful
6
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,900
Would I be on that? Would I be frontline?
That's what I'm thinkin'
7
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,200
If I was alive in the 1912 on the
Titanic and it was sinkin'
8
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:51,600
Who am I savin'? Am I fightin' women
and children, or am I waitin'?
9
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:55,200
I wonder, "What would I do
in the next generation?"
10
00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:58,500
Battle of Karbala, if they capturеd
me for the sake of my fathеr
11
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,000
Would I stand on my honour like
Hussein did it and tell
them to make me a martyr?
12
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:05,300
Would I really get smarter? Forgive my
oppressor or stick to the creed?
13
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,800
If I got locked inside like Nelson
Mandela, but never was freed
14
00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:12,200
I see a white man dance to rumba,
ain't study Patrice Lumumba
15
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:15,600
But get on the stage and sing like
sungba, lajaja-ja-ja, sungba
16
00:01:15,700 --> 00:01:19,100
Fuck it, I wonder, "What would
I do in the next generation?"
17
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,400
Would I fight for justice? Is it the
reason my mum named me David?
18
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:25,900
How can you be king, how can you be
king, don't speak for the people?
19
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,400
Them man try draw me out and compare
like me and these niggas are equal
20
00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:32,900
I'm a Black man and this bozo sayin'
my music socially conscious
21
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,200
While the mandem troll the responses,
this world's gone totally bonkers
22
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:39,700
I sometimes wonder, "What would
I do in the next generation?"
23
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,500
But I'm knowin' the answer, 'cause what
am I doin' in this generation?
24
00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:46,700
Afraid to speak cah I don't wanna
risk it my occupation
25
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,000
We got kids under occupation, my
parents, they wouldn't get that
26
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:53,500
The people that died for our
freedom spoke on justice,
couldn't accept that
27
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,900
I talk 'bout the money in all
my accounts, so why don't
I speak on the West Bank?
28
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,500
Remember growin' up prejudiced,
the damage 7/7 did
29
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,800
Extremists and terrorists, I
was afraid of the Taliban
30
00:02:03,900 --> 00:02:07,600
Can't speak out on illegal settlers,
now I'm afraid of a shadow-ban
31
00:02:09,100 --> 00:02:10,800
What would I do in the
next generation?
32
00:02:10,900 --> 00:02:12,300
Critiquin' African leaders
33
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,800
For sellin' our country's natural resources
to the West for peanuts
34
00:02:15,900 --> 00:02:17,500
If they don't hear, they'll feel us
35
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,100
I question what I'm alive for
36
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,600
And can you say you're alive
if you ain't got somethin' you're
willin' to die for?
37
00:02:22,700 --> 00:02:26,000
What am I willin' to die for? What
am I doin' in this generation?
38
00:02:26,100 --> 00:02:29,600
I get in my head sometimes,
I feel like I'm in despair
39
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:33,000
That feelin' of total powerlessness,
I get that sinkin' feelin'
40
00:02:33,100 --> 00:02:34,400
That good ain't defeatin' evil
41
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:37,900
I put that pain on vinyl,
but feel like that shit ain't
movin' the needle
42
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,100
Retweetin' people, raisin' awareness,
in all fairness
43
00:02:43,300 --> 00:02:45,000
Ain't gonna bring Chris
back to his parents
44
00:02:45,100 --> 00:02:47,000
But there's no other option,
it's a process
45
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:49,400
Gotta stand and protest cah
they want man silenced
46
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:51,600
Cah they want man dead or
they want man hopeless
47
00:02:51,700 --> 00:02:55,200
In the next generation, I spoke
with my ancestors in the
night and I showed them
48
00:02:55,300 --> 00:02:58,600
They spoke with tears in their
eyes for the brothers they lost
and said it was progress
49
00:02:58,700 --> 00:03:02,000
"How can it be progress?" I asked
him, confused, disgusted
50
00:03:02,100 --> 00:03:05,500
They said, "David, just so you
can fight this, you know how
much sufferin' touched us?
51
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,800
And you got a chance, we come
from a time and a place where
you couldn't get justice
52
00:03:08,900 --> 00:03:12,200
Had to find peace in the fact
that we all answer to the
one what we trust in
53
00:03:12,300 --> 00:03:15,700
And in our generation, we did do peaceful
protests, just like you
54
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,200
Burnt buildings, just like you,
did boycotts, just like you
55
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:22,600
Sat in a hostel powerless, did
feel powerless just like you
56
00:03:22,700 --> 00:03:26,100
And I know that it may sound strange,
but we made some change
and we're just like you
57
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,500
I know that you question your
character, I know that
you suffer in silence
