Malcom X.X.X.歌词

[00:00.73]Minister Malcolm, the thing that I thought
[00:03.12]Might be good for starting it off is to talk about
[00:06.65]One of the most pervasive beliefs in the general society
[00:09.90]About the Nation of Islam
[00:11.44]Talkin' to you like talkin' to myself
[00:14.22]'Cause it ain't no gettin' through to you, with all I swear
[00:17.24]And I've been thinkin' 'bout you since I came to jail
[00:20.07]I've tried to reach out to you, but it was to no avail
[00:22.71]Guess it ain't nothin' else to do when we outgrew each other
[00:25.39]We hard down beefin' like we never knew each other
[00:28.27]Top off the coupe, no bikini, we came out life now
[00:31.01]I'm sippin' Bellini, livin' that lifestyle
[00:34.01]And that is that it is an organization
[00:36.31]Dedicated to the use of violent means to attain its goals
[00:41.18]The question I have is,
[00:43.75]How true is this,
[00:46.48]And why do you think it persists in society?
[00:50.58]Poppin' pills, poppin' pistols, I put my mic down
[00:53.54]I almost lost my life that night, I was on a bloodhound
[00:56.41]They tryna tell us put the bikes up and the guns down
[00:59.31]X was tryna buy a bike and he got gunned down
[01:02.15]X was tryna change his life, but he got burned down
[01:04.96]X wasn't ridin' with no pipe so he got gunned down
[01:07.69]Listen, do as I say, don't do as I do
[01:10.51]Nine out of ten, it ain't gon' end up lookin' good for you
[01:13.31]Have never at any time been guilty of initiating
[01:17.98]Any aggressive acts of violence
[01:19.87]During the entire 33 years
[01:24.00]Or more that the honorable
[01:26.63]Elijah Mohammed has been teaching us. The—
[01:30.34]If I wasn't rich, you wouldn't be pullin' up to my funeral
[01:33.16]First they kissin' you, huggin' you, then they suin' you
[01:36.00]If it was me, it was you, I'm wonderin' what you would do
[01:38.83]I just pulled up on your mama, homie, she beautiful
[01:41.68]Yeah, gotta keep the strap, can't let you, let y'all on me
[01:44.72]I got married to the game, she put these racks all on me
[01:47.40]Now I got diamonds on my ring, look like a matrimony
[01:50.04]First they screamin' my name, then file a lawsuit on me
[01:53.04]You would hate to see me reach my full potential
[01:56.02]You want me robbin', poppin' Mollies, poppin' pistols
[01:58.76]I'm goin' to college
[01:59.78]'Cause to the youngins I'm influential
[02:01.58]Thought it was Congress,
[02:02.54]They ain't know this was a Presidential
[02:04.26]They ain't know that I was intellectual
[02:07.02]You tryna change your life, but they won't let you
[02:10.38]I know they know I'm special, why they playin' with me?
[02:12.87]You talkin' jewels,
[02:13.70]I'm droppin' jewels, you see the difference
[02:15.88]Coppin' jewels for your dawgs, they don't appreciate it
[02:18.33]Everybody gon' say you fake when you make it
[02:21.58]Back of the Maybach with the tints so you don't notice me
[02:24.06]When the money bring the fame, you can't even roll in peace
[02:26.95]Guess all the pain that I went through had to be the recipe
[02:29.62]I stood tall through it all and brought out the best of me
[02:32.49]Ayo, dismiss all them charges, that ain't my destiny
[02:35.26]Everything I said, I stood on it, I got integrity
[02:38.06]G.A., I put my hood on it, I bring the checks with me
[02:40.88]You need security by your grave so you can rest in peace
[02:43.88]Tired
[02:44.59]Charge of violence against us actually stems
[02:47.14]From the guilt complex that exists in the conscious
[02:51.40]And subconscious minds of most white people in this country
[02:54.84]They know that they've been violent in their brutality
[03:00.93]Against negros and they feel that some day
[03:05.62]The negro is going to wake up
[03:07.24]And try and do unto as them as they have done unto
[03:12.52]Do unto the whites as the whites have done unto us
