[00:00.01] | (Why are you an alien?) |
[00:01.98] | Because I'm treated like a Klingon |
[00:03.68] | I get stabbed in the back as I'm beat on |
[00:05.87] | By these non-natives, they call me a trespasser |
[00:08.40] | I was first on the planet but now I'm last |
[00:10.41] | On the polls of progress |
[00:11.64] | Check the latest figures |
[00:12.76] | The average Black, nothing but a house nxgga |
[00:15.00] | In a permanent underclass - yes the lowest |
[00:17.46] | One paycheck away from being the homeless |
[00:19.71] | Kept like a pet, don't bite that white hand that feeds you |
[00:22.81] | That's exactly what I'm gonna do |
[00:24.60] | Straight going for self like a pitbull |
[00:26.76] | Cause I'm so fed up, my stomach is full of these lies |
[00:29.65] | Stereotypes keep us weak |
[00:31.41] | We're taught how to look, how to act and even speak |
[00:33.63] | By another man, or should I say a true preacher |
[00:36.02] | The devil in uniform, he's posing as teacher |
[00:38.36] | But let's not talk about him, let's talk about us |
[00:41.25] | Cause they won't change so we just must |
[00:43.21] | Take a look around, we're programmed to keep on failin' |
[00:45.96] | In their eyes, we're the legal aliens |
[00:47.93] | (Once you understand something, usually you must act upon it)x4 |
[01:06.17] | What about the ways we alienate each other? |
[01:08.62] | Using the term but rarely do we act as brothers |
[01:10.86] | Cause brothers are down for each other through all types of grit |
[01:13.63] | Even 400 years on the wrong continent |
[01:16.00] | Speakin' through a bastard language |
[01:17.90] | I came to express to you my mental anguish |
[01:20.60] | Brothers never actin' in accord with the times |
[01:23.14] | It's not just Black on Black crime |
[01:24.93] | But Black on Black racism, Black on Black on jealousness |
[01:27.25] | A Black on another Black's back so he can benefit |
[01:29.68] | One's in a mansion while his cousin's in the street |
[01:31.81] | We all have rhythm so why are we all off beat? |
[01:34.12] | Trying to compete to get the light man's affections |
[01:36.60] | He only wants to see us in his correction facilities |
[01:39.66] | And take advantage of our abilities |
[01:41.66] | I'm speaking so the next man can see |
[01:43.50] | How the world turns and why society wants to do us in |
[01:47.36] | Cause I'm a legal alien |
[01:48.39] | (Once you understand something, usually you must act upon it) X4 |
[02:06.59] | I call us legal cause we're allowed to be here |
[02:09.72] | Just as long as we give these laws of the land |
[02:12.23] | Programmed, to a slant towards light man, specifically the white man |
[02:15.92] | And everywhere you look the Blacks are labelled as crooks |
[02:18.55] | When we're actually objects that got took |
[02:20.83] | A little fact that's never enough mention |
[02:23.07] | Inside any type of school system |
[02:25.47] | But the negative is pumped like a curse |
[02:27.84] | Until the Black situation only gets worse |
[02:30.15] | Cause being ignorant of self, just leads to failure |
[02:32.94] | There's so many facts they don't tell 'ya |
[02:34.72] | You can't always believe what you read, hear and see |
[02:37.28] | When its benefit is not for you or me |
[02:39.39] | But for them with the power in the light skin |
[02:41.64] | All in all it's a system of racism |
[02:43.91] | And that's what outsiders don't wanna see |
[02:46.23] | They thinkin' Blacks should shut up and be happy |
[02:48.63] | In a land where opportunities come in mobs |
[02:51.11] | Yet we seem to be locked out of decent jobs |
[02:53.49] | Why? - because of indecent education |
[02:55.68] | False facts will never raise the nubian nation |
[02:57.85] | Until we realize all of these troubles, we're locked in |
[03:01.55] | With title of legal aliens |
[03:04.56] | (Can you feel it?) x15 |
[03:39.45] | (Can you feel it? Nothin' can save 'ya) |
