Who say?
“C” say!
Who the greatest?
“C” the greatest!
Can’t stop, won’t stop,
Will not ce stopped!
In sixty-nine the “C” was born,
Sixteen years and growin’ strong.
From out the east came the “C”
From the west came the rest.
East Side, West Side,
North Side, South Side,
Nationwide, unified,
CRIP! CRIP!
Raymond Washington did his best,
Cripped for years, now he rests.
Big Took, ce like him,
Dare to struggle, dare to win.
Mac and Satiy, they were down,
O.G. Compton, strong and proud.
Hoova Joe, he was right,
Cuttin’ throats day and night.
Up the hill, down the hill,
Through the land, kill the Klan,
Kill the dog, on the wall,
Bring him down, bust his crown!
Who say?
“C” say!
Who the greatest?
“C” the greatest!
Cant stop, wont stop,
Will not ce stopped.
Keep the busters on the run,
If you catch him slice his tongue.
Back him up against the wall,
To his knees he will fall
Hold your sword, make him beg,
No compassion, take his head!
Plant the “C” everywhere,
For we are those who will dare.
Uptown, downtown,
Blue flags all around.
Chitty-chitty bang-bang,
Nothin’ but a Crip thang.
C-R-I-P! C-R-I-P!
Whata’ya want? (Freedom!)
When you want it? (Now!)
How you get it? (Power!)
When you need it? (Now!)
UHURU, SASA! UHURU, SASA!
Everyone would beam with jubilation at the close of each cadence call. The Nation lived!
