Us invented da world
Us no gonna falla the people
We is the people
No half-empty here if we own da tap
We dance to da rhythm of our own music
Us gonna make you sick
Us no have a billion
Us have bills of trillions
Us no follow law
Too much flaw.
Us you find not in sin
Us you find in win
Us go kill demon
In a sermon
Us we come on!
Us no go to school
We no cool
Nor we fools
Us swim in blessing pools
Us is light
Something obtained in da right fight
Us is kings
We rule with those things with wings
Us you hate
That is our fate
Us homes you desecrate
Like you body, don't be late
And seal your fate
Us is da last of da divine
Ya know dat fruit rooted to da vine
Giving ya powerful wine
Us is now lost in ya imagination
Impossible to your adoration
But us ya gon know
Wen da Man who kills sorrow
Arrives and there's no more borrow
Nor tomorrow
Join us and let ya life be in surplus
Who is us
So ya can truss
We is us
Da bus driven by Jesus
And first pushed by Moses.
