One Out of Many (1980) - The Pop Group ft. The Last Poets video free download

From the album "For How Much Longer Do We Tolerate Mass Murder?"

Lyrics:

Selfish desires are burning like fire among those who hoard the gold

As they continue to keep the people asleep and the truth from being told

Racism and greed keep the people in need from getting what's rightfully theirs

Cheating, Stealing, and Double Dealing as they exploit the people's fears.

and for a few dollars more they'd start a war to exploit some brother's mother.

Then there's the Pyramid that stands by itself,

created by Black people's knowledge and wealth

Now Theasaur means treasuries, where they store the gold they stole.

And Amer means to punish like the slaves they bought and sold.

Then Septent means seven, like 1776

when the thirteen devils gathered to unleash their bag of tricks.

Then Sigil means the images they've created to fool the world,

like the colors on old Glory the flag that they unfurled.

Now Red's for the color of the Indian Man,

White's for the devils who stole the land,

Blue's for the eyes that hypnotised with the tricks and traps they've sprung

and even to this very same day they all speak with forked tongue.

And so the power's in the hands of the ruling classes

playing God with the fate of all the masses

so the people don't get any

in the land of the plenty

'CAUSE E PLURIBUS UNUM

MEANS ONE OUT OF MANY.
