Fear Of A Black Planet |
Where is Public Enemy? |
What’s the big deal? |
What’s your latest hit, brother? |
(Fear of a Black Planet) |
Man, don’t you worry 'bout a thing |
'Bout your daughter, nope she’s not my type |
(But suppose she said she loved me?) |
Are you afraid of the mix of Black and White? |
Livin' in a land where the law say |
Mixing of race makes the blood impure |
She’s a woman I’m a man |
Look at your face, I see ya can’t stand it |
Man you need to calm down, don’t get mad |
I don’t need your sista |
But suppose she said she loved me? |
Would you still love her or would you dismiss her? |
What is pure? |
Who is pure? |
Is it European? |
I ain’t sure |
If the whole world was to come through peace and love |
Then what would we be made of? |
Excuse us for the news |
You might not be amused |
But did you know White comes from Black |
No need to be confused |
Excuse us for the news |
I question those accused |
Why is this fear of Black from White |
Influence who you choose? |
Man, I don’t want your wife |
Stop screamin', it’s not the end of your life |
(But suppose she said she loved me?) |
What’s wrong with some color in your family tree? |
I don’t know, hey, I’m just a rhyme sayer |
Skins protected 'gainst the ozone layers |
Breakdown, 2001 |
Might be best to be Black or just Brown, countdown |
I’ve been wonderin' why people livin' in fear of my shade |
(Or my high-top fade) |
I’m not the one that’s runnin', but they got me on the run |
Treat me like I had a gun |
All I got is genes and chromosomes |
Consider me Black to the bone |
All I want is peace and love on this planet |
Ain’t how that God planned it? |
Excuse us for the news |
You might not be amused |
But did you know White comes from Black |
No need to be confused |
Excuse us for the news |
I question those accused |
Why is this fear of Black from White |
Influence who you choose? |
