Hatred |
| Black Man |
| You better stand strong |
| Hurry before our chances for survival are gone |
| It’s the youth man |
| They get we at a young age |
| Try to live a better life but them want RAGE |
| You may ask me where this is coming from |
| So Imma let the numbers run |
| In the year 2000 |
| 46% high school graduate Black man |
| Without a job or in the can |
| The number had increased by 4% more |
| Where does this leave us? |
| Presently void |
| Shaking in a jail cell paranoid |
| I see lots of young Black men pun TV |
| Nuff jewelry |
| Yet them not free |
| How can it be that we can’t see |
| We’re still shackled on that boat in the great blue sea |
| Flee! |
| You don’t like hearing the truth? |
| The message that you’re spreading is deading the youth |
| A people with no foundation stand naked |
| Look in the mirror and sever the hatred |
| «Listen»…"Knowledge be the key… to unlock your brain" -Inspectah Deck |
| When I’m walking down the street, I see it all the time |
| People looking at me like my dreads are a crime |
| They signify the fact I refuse to conform |
| And I rock em' real thick, cause I’m allergic to the norm |
| I guess it makes them mad because I cause a reaction |
| Maybe I remind them of their own lack of passion |
| Cops staring at me with a fatal attraction |
| Even Black people mad, cause I don’t rock the common rapper fashion |
| Hoodied down |
| No bling, just intelligence |
| And a fire that’ll burn nuff pestilence |
| Yet this man in my face with irrelevance |
| Told me go abck to the jungle with the elephants |
| Let me cross the street before I catch a case |
| Cause I could wild the fuck out, and kick you in your face |
| Which brings us right back to where we started in the first place |
| Wanna make it home, but Brothers' out at 1st base |
| It takes a bigger man to see the bigger plan |
| To analyze experience and truly expand |
| You must, keep a level head and never combust |
| With true peace of mind, they could never truly conquer us |
| We’re conquerors in our own right |
| We’re blessed by the sun and we’re one with the night |
| The darkness is a fertile ground for creation |
| Foundation, for the sun’s presentation |
| Both provide energy, growth and chemistry |
| Reflect, redirect but respect your enemy |
| Without unity, we could never make it |
| Look in the mirror and sever the hatred |
