Imma tell it how it is and make no apology
|
Black people, we our own worst enemy
|
Jealousy, envy, so many friendamies
|
Still got that house-nigga, field-nigga mentality
|
We don't wanna see us rise to the top
|
Smiling when we see a brother striving, then he drops
|
Instead of helping him to succeed, get all that he can get
|
We hating, contemplating, taking his jewels and his whip
|
Shit you there paper-chasing, thinking it'll end your stress
|
Cant buy self esteem, love not selflessness
|
You can drive a million miles, in your Bentley like a star
|
You can fly across the globe, but cant escape who you are
|
And all this bragging and this boasting about the paper that you stack
|
Cant achieve as a people unless black give back
|
Think it ain't your problem turn your back you hypocrite
|
As long as poverty exists there'll be robbery of the rich
|
Shit now listen...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
This negativity got me ready to explode
|
Its like were on animosity overload
|
Were hustling the same hustle, down the same road
|
But were on self-destructive mode
|
Until we have unity we cant grow
|
If we could let go and let the love flow
|
We struggling the same struggle, down the same road
|
But were on self-destructive mode
|
|
[Assasin's rap 1]
|
We still living in division applied when we were slaves
|
Our ancestors are probably turning in their graves
|
To see a brother, see another and just shoot him down
|
Never did him no wrong he just form the other side of town
|
And its foolish and senseless, I cant comprehend
|
Sisters when we see our sisters why we face just a bend
|
And we don't show love
|
We don't pay no compliments
|
We show hostility and cause enough commotion
|
Shit now listen...
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
[Assasin's rap 2]
|
We ain't fighting racism
|
Or the injustice were shown
|
We fighting in our homes
|
And busy destroying our own
|
Complaining about the white man
|
And the way he make us live
|
But plenty of us, in the street, selling crack to our kids
|
And its so crazy and its ridiculous
|
Take a look at what were doing
|
Ignorance ain't bliss
|
Were so played by fear and insecurity
|
That we destroying and exploiting our community
|
|
[Repeat Chorus Twice]
