Why Is That（Single Edit） - Boogie Down Productions[00:00:02]

The day begins with a grin[00:00:20]

And a prayer to excuse my sins[00:00:23]

I can walk anywhere I choose[00:00:25]

Cause everybody listens to the B D P crew[00:00:27]

We're not here for glamour or fashion[00:00:30]

But here's the question I'm askin[00:00:33]

Why is it young black kids taught （flashin ）[00:00:35]

They're only taught how to read write and act[00:00:38]

It's like teachin a dog to be a cat[00:00:40]

You don't teach white kids to be black[00:00:43]

Why is that Is it because we're the minority [00:00:45]

Well black kids follow me[00:00:48]

Genesis chapter eleven verse ten[00:00:50]

Explains the geneology of Chem[00:00:54]

Chem was a black man in Africa[00:00:55]

If you repeat this fact they can't laugh at ya[00:00:58]

Genesis fourteen verse thirteen[00:01:01]

Abraham steps on the scene[00:01:03]

Being a descendent of Chem which is a fact[00:01:05]

Means Abraham too was black[00:01:08]

Abraham born in the city of a black man[00:01:09]

Called Nimrod grandson of Kam[00:01:13]

Kam had four sons one was named Canaan[00:01:15]

Here let me do some explaining[00:01:18]

Abraham was the father of Isaac[00:01:20]

Isaac was the father of Jacob[00:01:22]

Jacob had twelve sons for real[00:01:25]

And these were the children of Isreal[00:01:27]

According to Genesis chapter ten[00:01:30]

Egyptains descended from （Hahm Kam）[00:01:32]

Six hundred years later my brother read up[00:01:36]

Moses was born in Egypt[00:01:38]

In this era black Egyptians weren't right[00:01:40]

They enslaved black Isrealites[00:01:42]

Moses had to be of the black race[00:01:44]

Because he spent fourty years in Pharoah's place[00:01:47]

He passed as the Pharoah's grandson[00:01:50]

So he had to look just like him[00:01:53]

Yes my brothers and sisters take this here song[00:01:55]

Yo correct the wrong[00:01:57]

The information we get today is just wack[00:02:00]

But ask yourself why is that [00:02:03]

Verse Two[00:02:06]

The age of the ignorant rapper is done[00:02:20]

Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone[00:02:22]

The stereotype must be lost[00:02:24]

That love and peace and knowledge is soft[00:02:27]

Do away with that and understand one fact[00:02:30]

For love peace must attack[00:02:32]

And attack real strong stronger than war[00:02:35]

To conquer it and it's law[00:02:38]

Mental pictures stereotypes and fake history[00:02:40]

Reinforces mystery[00:02:44]

And when mystery is reinforced[00:02:45]

That only means that knowledge has been lost[00:02:47]

When you know who you really are[00:02:50]

Peace and knowledge shines like a star[00:02:52]

I'm only showin you a simple fact[00:02:55]

It Takes A Nation of MILLIONS to Hold Us people Back[00:02:57]

Which is wack but we can correct that[00:03:00]

Teach and learn what it is to be black[00:03:03]

Cause they're teachin birds to be a cat[00:03:05]

But ask yourself homeboy why is that[00:03:07]
