[verse 1]
2
Is the groove good to you
3
Like when you lose your thing
4
Forgetten grits is grocery
5
And eggs is poultry
6
Makin a livin against those makin a killin
7
Super blackman gotha back
8
And is back in the building
9
If the prison is that skin you in
10
And your cell sittin inside your skull
11
They say you cant getaway
12
From ya damn self
13
When your earth is heaven
14
And your world be hell
15
Check your head
16
Armageddons at the foot of your bed
17
You aint heard a word i said
18
Forget them slacks
19
Im that throwback that
20
Threw that throwback
21
Back on the racks
22
To get my mind back
23
O say can you see
24
I get back its still just a black and white tv
25
In lyin color brother
26
Gots to getaway to the other.
27

Over a thousand dead

33% of black males in jail
38
55% of black students will fail
39
85% of black folks forgot
40
We were slaves
41
Up inside this box
42
America got folks brains on lock
43
Forget the connects
44
Some wanna buy whats next
45
Wear it like a sign up in that chest
46
Yall should know papa dont take no mess
47
If you think your past is irrelevant
48

49

50
Gonna come as long as
51
You thinkin freedom
52

61
But what has bob mick sir paul
62
Done for you lately
63
How they maintain on your brain
64
Seems to escape me
65
Heard some ghetto cats
66
Dont like metal rap
67
Hear it and fear it
68
And they think its wack
69
They dont even know that the blues is black
70
And when i rap is back to the roots
71
Where i be at
72
Not some 30 year old who dont know facts
73
Whos wild sayin things like some juvenile
74
Remember 2 million black folks in the penile
75
Got a world of whitefolks
76
Thinkin its style
77
Think im hatin cause you lack the information
78
Cause we the fbi still gots on file
