I was born on a blood stained table
Cord wrapped around my neck
Epilectic 'til the age of 7

1967 in a bus marked public schools
Rode me and a group of unsuspecting political tools
Our parents wondered what it was like to have another color near
So they put their babies together to eliminate the fear
We sacrifice yes we did
Fighting one another, (we sacrifice) (don't say it preacher)
All because of color
The angel of hate, she taught me how to kick her
If she called me anything but victor (you mean like nigger?)
If the only thing that tells me is father time
Then sacrifice is the mother sublime, we love it
Listen mother, we sacrifice
(don't, don't, don't say it preacher)
(we sacrifice)
(well, well, well, well)
(what is sacrifice?)
Hold yo' text, deacon
Never understood my old friends laughing
They got high when everything else got wrong (pass the booze up here)
Dr. king was killed and the streets
They started burnin'
When the smoke was cleared, their high was gone
Education got important, so important 2 victor
A little more important than ripple and weed
Bernadette's a lady, and she told me (what she say?)
"whatever you do son, a little discipline is what you need,
Is what you need, you need to sacrifice"

One day I'll visit her I'm gonna

But we got something
Heavy on our minds (we sacrifice)

Sometimes, you gotta leave the one you love
Somebody, anybody, everybody wave your hand
Around the corner, there's another sacrifice (joy around the corner)
But you got to do the best you can y'all (we sacrifice)
Say you got to go through it (go through it)
You got to go through it all (go through it all)
High glory, yeah
Sell it, don't tell it, don't tell me (joy around the corner)
Nice at my feet
Lord I might get tired,
But I, I've got 2 keep on (we sacrifice)
Walkin' down this road, (we sacrifice)
Keep on walkin' down this road (joy around the corner)
When I reach my destination (we sacrifice)
My name will be victor
Amen
