When our towns were in flame and yet we got the blame I wasn`t surprised When police stormed the streets and no one came to our needs I wasn`t surprised Well it wasn`t our last and it wasn`t our first My people are killed even right in our church And maybe I`m wise from too many cries But I wasn`t surprised. When they shot Fred and Mark as they slept in the dark, I wasn`t surprised When the commission contends it was in "self defense" I wasn`t surprised Well it wasn`t our last and it wasn`t our first My people are killed in their sleep, in the church And maybe I`m wise from hearing his cries, But I wasn`t surprised. In a Southern jail cell, a guard gave a girl hell, and I wasn`t surprised She fought back and defied, became an outlaw statewide And I wasn`t surprised And I wasn`t surprised Well it wasn`t our last and it wasn`t our first My people are killed in the prisons and church And maybe I`m wise from too many cries But I wasn`t surprised. Well right down the block, a young boy picked a lock And I wasn`t surprised The police shot him dead, he was hungry, how he bled! I wasn`t surprised It wasn`t our last and it wasn`t our first My people are killed down the block, in the church And maybe I`m wise from hearing his cries But I wasn`t surprised. When they shot down my son, nothing wrong had he done I wasn`t surprised He was walking to class `cross the Jackson State grass And I wasn`t surprised Well it wasn`t our first and it wasn`t our last My family is killed even crossing the grass And maybe I`m wise from hearing his cries But I wasn`t surprised. I`ve seen your children fall and I grieve for you all, But I wasn`t surprised I have known all along that they`re mean and they`re strong So don`t be surpriseed Well it wasn`t your last, it was only your first The day will come round that they`ll kill you in church And maybe I`m wise from too many lies But I wasn`t surprised. Well I`m bitter as hell, but one thing I`ll tell you You might be surprised If we stand side by side to stop this genocide They will be surprised For as long as we`re silent, as long as we`re still They`ll gun us and shun us, you know that they will So raise your voices high in one unified cry And we`ll see who`s surprised! words and music by Kristin Lems c MCMLXXIX Kleine Ding Music (BMI) chorus: Oh Mama, it`s hurtin even worse Love is such a blessing and love is such a curse Startin is so easy, partin is a pain Always gettin this heart involved will drive me insane Oh Mama, I never seem to learn You told me more than once how much a soul can burn But standin by the fire`s heat felt so good I burned myself just like you knew I would chorus When the end comes, you know it hurts so bad But I try to keep in mind the beauty that I had Mama, I inherited this heart from you And now that I`ve got it, tell me what to do chorus words and music by Kristin Lems c MCMLXXIX Kleine Ding Music (BMI)
