Текст (слова) песни: One.Be.Lo - Axis

 
{*"Man it`s a trip"*} 
{*"Man it`s a trip"*} (turn) 
{*"Man it`s a trip, trip, trip"*} (turn) 
 
[One.Be.Lo] 
Now as the world turns, when will us black people learn? (damn) 
Before we had a perm, we came from Adam`s sperm 
You see with plain vision, we live in the same system 
Became victims, once was able, can`t even raise children 
Where`s `the village` when you need it? 
A question for the person in the looking glass 
Our community`s lookin bad like a bucket full of crabs 
That`s the crooked path 
If we don`t straighten this out, how long would it last? 
Every night you hear the bullets blast 
Even if you in the suburbs every night, you see the footage flash 
across your screen, I`ll tell you my biggest pet peeve 
You lookin at it thinkin like, "It don`t affect me" 
You livin large I`m thinkin like, "It don`t impress me" 
Rockin them chains, Sojourner Truth is tryin to set free 
It don`t take a pro-fessor 
to see the o-pressor got the whole treasure 
Now how many Africans slain for one platinum chain on yo` dresser? 
I`m no better just because I think I know better 
Tell me who you trust when you`re in your new trucks 
Some of us dyin over a few bucks, killers old enough to ride a school bus 
With brothers like these tell me, who needs the Ku Klux? 
Women walkin with titties out cause the truth sucks 
It`s time to breastfeed, knowledge is the best key 
We got us pourin liquor out for all the dead G`s 
Rest? Please, in the grave you gettin less peace 
 
{*"Man it`s a trip"*} {*"Turnin, turnin"*} 
{*"The world keeps turnin.."*} 
{*"On its axis.."*} 
 
[One.Be.Lo] 
See in America they flamed bottle rockets when slaves was not abolished (true) 
Slayed a lot of fathers and raped a lot of mommas 
Them days cotton products, we blame our modern problems 
New ways they got us bondaged, the chains is psychologic 
The media be feedin us napalm atomics 
While the schools brainwash us, the crayons is toxic (blah!) 
Don`t believe the hype, they can save all the drama 
Cause them apes not evolving, I can`t swallow ya vomit 
My rights as a human they change laws in congress 
Now Shaytan [Satan] in office, we can`t call him honest 
What part of the game do they play, cops or robbers? 
In this land of Pocahontas, natives lost to conquest 
Your false gods get framed, buffed and polished 
If you ask who the prophet, they say Nostradamas (who?) 
No ways of Muhammad, no pray five at Kabbah 
Definition of a terrorist, they call Islamic 
So many brothers puzzled and can`t solve they problems 
Smuggle crack, juggle rap, or play ball in college 
But Uncle Sam, hustle man, take all your dollars 
Break y`all, sink them 8-balls in your pocket 
I`m chosen like Moses, here to take y`all to promise 
My +Quest+ started when Tip say "Lost my wallet" 
We all gotta get it, the mules, acres was promised 
But the skeletons came out the closet 
Now some of y`all black folks is still patriotic 
Dyin in wars, so who you think make the profit? 
 
{*"One day old fool, you gonna get this country 
 in a war that they not gonna fight for ya, 
 which means you gon` have to fight it yourself!"*} 
 
{*"What makes you think you can be a black hero?"*} 
 
{*"I`m here, because I can`t stand what`s happening 
 and somebody has to make a difference 
 Now brotha will you help me?"*}
