Ebony |
Once again my friend, I try |
To help improve another brother’s life |
By coming through with the righteous groove |
Tells right from wrong, makes people move |
Not idiot crossover songs |
That appeal to all and make you sing along, no |
This one is for the chosen few |
Who want to build and uplift my people too, so |
Listen to the words I speak |
Cause the words are truth and truth’s what I teach |
By talkin' bout the things that I see |
When talkin' bout this color called ebony |
It’s ebony |
Not sellin' drugs, I’m above a thug |
Killin' off his own, tryin' to make a buck, no |
That ain’t the way it’s done today |
Gotta come together, gotta educate |
Gotta, uplift, lift up your head |
Stand strong and proud, don’t end up dead |
Take time to make that move |
Be sure to be straight and you’ll improve |
Live long, be strong, and you’ll see |
That better is a life lived long and carefree |
Just stay on a righteous path |
You’ll see the truth and won’t have to ask why |
I don’t make the rhymes that say |
How ignorant brothers act nowaday |
I just talk about the things that I see |
When talkin' 'bout this color called ebony |
It’s ebony |
Now break |
Smooth |
Now I want y’all to listen, see what you’re missin' |
What lacks in the competition is |
Strong words, of pride and unity |
I’m glad that y’all in tune to me |
I’m here to let y’all know |
P-Dog is sick and I’ll run the show |
By talkin' 'bout the things that I see |
When talkin' 'bout this color called ebony |
It’s ebony |
Smooth |
