Anger In The Nation

"You know, nowadays it.. seems like there's a lot of.. bad things going on and.. I guess a lot of it.. from the way I see it.. seems to still stem from.. lack of feelings on our parts, it's.. and how we relate or communicate with our.. fellow brothers and sisters" "Let's get together!" * cut n scratch 3

South Africa, what does it mean?

To burst the scene, or conquer like a philistene

War or peace, which one do you prefer?

Pass me my

M-16 for the disaster

A reason for the treason in a jet black season.. .. for peace, justice, and freedom for the

Original Man, architect of the

Motherland

Kings to Queens, is the

Asiatic Black plan

Pre-Adam-ite, first to see the light

Way before

Adam and Eve took flight

Bless the seed of

Abraham, I came to jam

Protest the teachings of another man

Uncle Tom stay loyal so they boil

I'm the alchemist with the twist from the true soil

My blood brother

Adolpho on the side of me

My vision ain't blurry, so don't even lie to me

The rebirth the revival of our culture survival to elevate, the black man is vital

You gotta realize now what we're facing

The floors

I'm pacing from the anger in the nation "Let's get together!" * cut n scratch 3

Here's the situation from a darker view

Night and day, salt and pepper in the earthly stew

But the salt think it taste better, straight up superior

Therefore, the flavor of the pepper's inferior

Incorrect though, giving some heartburn

Level of a devil better wait your turn

And here is one recollection of imperfection

No one should be judged by complexion

Lie-braries; broken down as lies buried to force their beliefs to pilgrims all hurried

Television; tell-a-lie-vision

A schism; negative realism

Four-hundred-and-thirty-five years til weak mental deaf dumb and blindness put us to sleep

Out of the dark comes light so the first can't be

So Armaggedeon comes like a thief in the night

Rednecks flex to my context but in the projects some won't survive the next confrontation and

I'm aware of segregation

Pump your black fist for the anger in the nation "Let's get together!" * cut n scratch 3

Some walk slow, cause the water's not shallow

Let my people go, you little

Pharoah Listen how they word it, be observant

Then house negro; today, civil servant

I want to drop the bomb but remain calm

Strong like the power of the

Fruits of

Islam Black is beautiful, hot like fire

Guess how many times they thought they killed the

Messiah Malcolm

X, Dr. King, let's sing

All around the world let freedom ring

Reality is real, so how do you feel from being kings on a throne to picking cotton in a field?

Your slavery is lack of identity

One of the things that's not making you a friend of me

What's your cause - aim, rationale?

Cause I made up my mind,

I never scrape or bow

But teach my own, the sound of black unity

Together we can rise and now's the opportunity

The Tuskegee

Experiment, indeed it was big when they used the black man as a guinea pig

Animalism, pumped on a lower level

But can only be the works of the devil

And I'm telling you now the frustration

The future's facing from the anger in the nation "Let's get together!" * cut n scratch 3
