Lyrics:

CHORUS:

I'm your nephew, yes it's true oh can't you hear me Uncle Sam

Can I sit upon your bended knee just like the other man?

Didn't I die in Vietnam and didn't I march in Birmingham?

I'm your nephew, yes it's true oh can't you hear me Uncle Sam



VERSE 1:

Didn't I sail the water against my every will?

Didn't I fetch that water when your bucket needed a refill?

Where was all the water when the fire was burning up the cross?

I'm your nephew too it's true oh hear me, Mr Boss



CHORUS



VERSE 2:

Didn't I get all A's in school, yes I did now Uncle Sam

My books did not have covers on 'em still I did the best I can

Now how come I can't get no job, I just don't understand

Don't you love me anymore, why can't you tell me Uncle Sam



CHORUS



RAP:

I've lived the life a citizen's supposed to

So why I gotta be the illegitimate nephew

Remember me, Uncle Sam? I fought your war

And went all out not knowing what I was fighting for

Sam? Why'd you let them rape my great grandmother?

Then go to the oak tree and hang her brother

When Abe was slaving there wasn't a fuss

So where was you when they was in my yard burning the cross?

Do you love me or what, Uncle Sam, what is it?

You wanna maim me, you claim the grand wizard?

Let that pass and marched for a just cause

Then got uncivilized rights with unenforced laws

Passed your curriculum got a diploma

And can't get a job 'cause my skin has colour

You say things have changed between now and then

Now, I wanna know the difference between me and him?



CHORUS
