[00:36.22]Could you tell me who unleashed our animal instinct?
[00:38.62]And the white man sittin' there tickled pink
[00:40.99]Laughin' at us on the avenue
[00:43.18]Bustin' caps at each other after havin' brew
[00:45.64]We can't enjoy ourselves
[00:47.69]Too busy jealous... at each other's wealth
[00:50.40]Comin' up is just in me
[00:52.10]But the Black community is full of envy
[00:54.70]Too much back-stabbin'
[00:56.75]While I look out the window I see all the Japs grabbin'
[00:59.70]Every vacant lot in my neighborhood
[01:01.57]Build a store, and sell their goods
[01:03.96]To the county recips
[01:05.47]You know, us po ******; nappy hair and big lips?
[01:08.62]Four or five babies on your crotch
[01:10.88]And you expect Uncle Sam to help us out?
[01:13.23]We ain't nothin' but porchmonkeys
[01:15.12]To the average bigot, redneck honky
[01:17.64]You say comin' up is a must
[01:19.74]But before we can come up, take a look at US
[01:32.52]And all y'all ****-dealers...
[01:33.77]You're as bad as the po-lice- cause ya kill us
[01:36.43]You got rich when you started slangin' ****
[01:39.08]But you ain't built us a supermarket
[01:41.34]So when can spend our money with the blacks
[01:43.08]Too busy buyin' gold an' Cadillacs
[01:45.54]That's what ya doin' with the money that ya raisin'
[01:48.35]Exploitin' us like the Caucasians did
[01:50.51]For 400 years - I got 400 tears- for 400 peers
[01:54.76]Died last year from gang-related crimes
[01:57.11]That's why I got gang-related rhymes
[01:59.33]But when I do a show ta kick some facts
[02:01.79]Us Blacks don't know how ta act
[02:03.93]Sometimes I believe the hype, man
[02:06.46]We mess it up ourselves and blame the white man
[02:08.46]But don't point the finger you jiggaboo
[02:10.72]Take a look at yourself ya dumb ***** you
[02:13.06]Pretty soon hip-hop won't be so nice
[02:15.32]No Ice Cube, just Vanilla Ice
[02:18.02]And yall sit and scream and cuss
[02:19.73]But there's no one ta blame- but US
[02:40.60]US ... will always sing the blues
[02:43.06]Cause all we care about is hairstyles and tennis shoes
[02:45.11]And if ya step on mine ya pushed a button
[02:47.27]"Cause I'll beat you down like it ain't nothin'"
[02:49.66]Just like a beast
[02:51.76]But I'm the first ***** ta holler out {PEACE, BLACK MAN}
[02:54.93]I beat my wife and children to a pulp
[02:56.62]When I get drunk and smoke ****
[02:58.88]Got a bad heart condition
[03:00.98]Still eat hog-mogs an' chitlin's
[03:03.54]Bet my money on the dice and the horses
[03:05.69]Jobless, so I'm a hope for the armed forces
[03:08.26]Go to church but they tease us
[03:10.01]Wit' a picture of a blue-eyed Jesus
[03:12.26]They used to call me Negro
[03:14.42]After all this time I'm still bustin' up the chiffarobe
[03:17.03]No respect and ignored
[03:19.13]And I'm havin' more babies than I really can afford
[03:21.74]In jail cause I can't pay the mother
[03:24.00]Held back in life because of my color
[03:26.66]Now this is just a little summary
[03:28.61]Of US, but yall think it's dumb of me
[03:30.91]To hold a mirror to ya face, but trust
[03:33.78]Nobody gives a **** about...
