Black Privilege

Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Cecil Rhodes is the African Willy Lynch The African mind has been blind ever since We were taught that we were second rate And I ain't knew it till I listened to the chords on Warren G's "Regulate" Far from speculation, the first man was us We say "Black Power!", they say "In God We Trust!" But we're the God they speak of, modelled from the dust But we can't find our feet yet, severed at the bust A hot iron burns a scalp just to straighten hair And I ain't hating on your wig, Queen, let's be fair I ain't hating your extensions, don't take it there I'm just saying black is beautiful and they can pair All the ads in the world that they want. All the color-propaganda they need But I'm living true and living by me Navigating all the holes in the street Now we're both on a roll and a streak! That's Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Thomas Sankara's the African Che' Guevara Murdered by his people for standing for truth and honor Pan- Africanist. Eventually the truth will corner all lies Take it back; and now the truth's the former Like the Kingdoms are strong again, for longer and The equality for all the women, and all the men And all the children know the way to go and chase knowledge And cultural exchange rises to replace wallets Emotional intelligence replace products Hearts full of gold to replace pockets One of us to replace puppets A Kingdom of excellence, you gotta love it Power to the people where the people with the power empower the people Cuz true power is equal They told you black was dumb, coward-deceitful Thank God now we have the power to see through. Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege Black Privilege K.R's the first of his kind, versing a rhyme While juggling a verse in his mind, a product of grind That Shady VISION got me squinting through shine That hazy VISION got me swimming through time And I pray for my enemies. I pray that its quick Cuz I'ma come to your funeral and pray that its lit I'ma dance on your grave, I'll blow you a kiss I never behave, bro, you know what it is See I'm ready for war and I'm steady with the moves If you shoot and you miss I guarantee you'll lose I move in the dark, I'm hunting with the wolves We knocking on doors if you get it confused No honor for dudes that did it for the views You act like you trap but you did it 'cuz you choose The young'ns I raise be filling your shoes Its excellence or nothing, we're hearing no excuse Black Privilege. Black Privilege. Yeah
