Oh, yeah!
I got a third war militant, still think it's relevant,
Even if 'em kids cut the shirts and start wearing it.
Humble in the presence of the veterans
And not the ones who picked up their guns,
But who picked up their gatherings.
Ancestry, history and making out witnessing,
Listening, see all these Japanese ladies with a stick around a?
Free mumia this was the photo, trust the pharaohs were seeing it.
Taking it for granted, you're talking about the sixties,
Never get to talk to anybody who let live the shit and still exist.
And better yet, she still resist, speaking to a Mary ..and ignorant.
Kids ..stuck around laboring,
Said that it's a privilege to meet you in person,
She took my hand, said it's good to meet you too,
And when I'm out of school ask me what I'm gonna do!
I had it think about it, but truth is I knew
That it was something for the?
Truly I'll probably be a teacher, but the music did take enough
To make me wanna gamble on its sustenance,
And that's why I'm writing this to tell ya!

All my.. cause when I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
? When I grow up I wanna be just like Yuri Kochiyama.
And if she ever hears
If she ever hear of Sister?
Cause when I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
Humble, serve the people proper,
When I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
When I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
When I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.

I see the picture up in Life magazine
You were sitting in front seat for Malcolm's last speech.
Saw the first man with the shot gun,
Two more came to get the job done.
Now who ever thought that it be you holding him?
I wonder what you felt when his eyes were going dim.
And if he never died, will we know that he exists?
Or would he have been the leader that we always seem to miss?
It's no taking back, whatever happens and I miss?
..and it's more than just a .. and a myth.
..so many times ever since and you find
That will always be a reason for the fist.
The last one I hold him 'till?
He'll still be remembered by the people that he helped.
He said he'd keep trying but never losing hope,
Revolutionaries die, but the revolution don't.
And I won't and I'm put there!

All my.. cause when I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
? When I grow up I wanna be just like Yuri Kochiyama.
And if she ever hears
If she ever hear of Sister?
Cause when I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
Humble, serve the people proper,
When I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
When I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
When I grow up I wanna be like Yuri Kochiyama.
