about

This is the first single off Kojo Easy Damptey's sophomore album Giants: Stories of Existence, Resilience, & Resistance to be released November 2nd, 2018 via Celestial Voodoo.

lyrics

When the giants march on we will feel their wrath
A wrath born from the ageless hammer of destruction
We will hear the rivers roar we will know their pain
Pain endured from generation to generation
So let them run free for their time is here and now
They will rise like the sun shedding light for all to see
For the world has no respect for the unseen
Only marked bills with heroes of destruction

We will keep marching with the Giants
We will keep fighting for the fallen

There's no rhyme or reason we reside in prison
Pain and suffering all we know is a life of enslavement
Militarized policing tell me what's the difference
"Raise your hands! You're about to turn cold on the pavement"
Helpless amidst confusion we're force fed illusion
Are we free or subservient to a life of consumption
Some reap a meager pittance others bask in abundance
Foolish perdition as the world begs for deliverance

We will keep marching with the Giants
We will keep fighting for the fallen
