Four hundred years (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
Of the same philosophy
Four hundred years (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
And black people, they still can't see
Why do they fight against the youth of today?
And without the youth, you will be gone, all gone astray
Come on, let's make a move (Make a move, make a move)
Now that the time, the time has come
Fools don't see (Fools don't see, fools don't see)
But I know that we could be strong
So come with me to a land of liberty
We got where we can live, live our lives and be free
Four hundred years (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
Of the same, the same philosophy
Four hundred years (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
And black people still can't see
Come with me, you black and you brown, you got to be free
Stop sittin' down on your pride, you just can't hide
Oh, four hundred years (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
Of the same, same philosophy
Four hundred years (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
Why do black people close their eyes?
Come to reality, you got ability
Just can't see (Four hundred years, four hundred years)
