Let me break it to you
Talk n talk is too cheap
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing

Hey my people, have you ever been told
Their world is so hard for you to understand
Did you ever know that William Lloyd
Thought he knew, and so he said, moral suasion
Harriet and Frederick, when they made their play
Their plan was to steal away
So they were always on the run, always on the run

Seems that we all ever got, seems that we all ever got
Was a lot of talk
I think we have had enough, I think we have had enough
Time to walk the walk

Let me break it to you
Talk n talk is too cheap
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing
Let me break it to you
Learn this aphorism
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing

Hey my people have you ever been told
Your world is worth fighting for, you understand
Malcolm tried a new assault, which seemed
So rhetorical he said
Do this by any means
And then there was Martin
He made his last stand
When asked to show his hand
He said he had a dream

Seems that we all ever got, seems that we all ever got
Was a lot of talk
I think we have had enough, I think we have had enough
Time to walk the walk

Let me break it to you
Talk n talk is too cheap
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing
Let me break it to you
Learn this aphorism
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing

Now it's all up to you
Learn this aphorism
Hope you are listening
There is so much to do
Learn this aphorism
Hope you are listening

Let me break it to you
Talk n talk is too cheap
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing
Let me break it to you
Learn this aphorism
The wise one once told me
Talking just ain't doing
