I'm A African (我是非洲人) (Explicit) - Dead Prez[00:00:00]
Yo turn this motherf**king sh*t up [00:00:03]
Ha ha ha[00:00:09]
Rwanda nigeria africa's in the house[00:00:14]
My ni**a d r [00:00:21]
[verse 1[00:00:24]
Ni**a the red is for the blood in my arm[00:00:30]
The black is for the gun in my palm[00:00:32]
And the green is for the tram that grows natural[00:00:33]
Like locks on africans[00:00:35]
Holdin the smoke from the herb in my abdomen[00:00:36]
Camouflage fatigues and daishikis[00:00:39]
Somewhere in between n w a and p e [00:00:40]
I'm black like steve biko[00:00:42]
Raised in the ghetto by the people[00:00:46]
F**k the police you know how we do[00:00:48]
[verse 2[00:00:50]
Ayo my life is like roots it's a true story[00:00:51]
It's too gory for them televised fables on cable[00:00:53]
I'ma a runaway slave watching the north star[00:00:55]
Shackles on my forearm runnin with the gun on my palm[00:00:57]
I'm an african never was an african-american[00:00:59]
Blacker than black I take it back to my origin[00:01:01]
Same skin hated by the klansmen[00:01:03]
Big nose and lips big hips and butts dancin what[00:01:05]
Hook:[00:01:07]
I'm a african[00:01:10]
I'm a african uhh[00:01:10]
And I know what's happenin[00:01:11]
I'm a african[00:01:13]
I'm a african uhh[00:01:14]
And I know what's happenin[00:01:16]
You a african [00:01:17]
You a african louder[00:01:19]
Do you know what's happenin [00:01:21]
I'm a african[00:01:23]
I'm a african uhh[00:01:24]
And I know what's happenin[00:01:27]
It's plain to see you can't change me[00:01:30]
'Cause I'm a people army for life[00:01:31]
Where you from fool [00:01:33]
[verse 3[00:01:35]
No I wasn't born in ghana but africa is my momma[00:01:48]
And I did not end up here from bad karma[00:01:50]
Or from b-ball selling mad crack or rappin[00:01:54]
Peter tosh try to tell us what happened[00:01:57]
He was sayin if you black then you african[00:01:59]
So they had to kill him and make him a villain[00:02:00]
'Cause he was teachin the children[00:02:03]
I feel him he was tryin to drop us a real gem[00:02:04]
That's why we bucking holes in the ceilin when we hearin[00:02:07]
Hook[00:02:09]
A-f-r-i-c-a puerto rico haiti and j a [00:02:30]
New york and cali f-l-a[00:02:33]
No it ain't 'bout where you stay it's bout the motherland[00:02:36]
(repeat 2x)[00:02:38]
[verse 4[00:02:39]
It's like tank top flip flop[00:02:48]
Knotty dread lock f**k a cop hip hop[00:02:50]
Make your head bop[00:02:52]
Bounce to this socialist movement[00:02:54]
My environment made me the ni**a I am[00:02:55]
Uncle sam came and got me and arrested my fam[00:02:58]
Try to infiltrate and murder off the best of my clan[00:03:00]
I'm not american punk democrat or republican[00:03:03]
Remember that most of the cats we know be hustlin[00:03:04]
My momma work all her life and still strugglin[00:03:06]
I blame it on the government and say it on the radio[00:03:08]
(what) and if you don't already know[00:03:13]
All these uncle tom a** kissin niggas gotta go[00:03:15]
