The Science - Murs[00:00:00]

So I'm at the barbershop[00:00:02]

And we talking about this new generation of hip-hop[00:00:03]

And how how lost you all are man[00:00:06]

But y'all have no science[00:00:08]

So here you go[00:00:10]

The systematic knowledge of the physical world[00:00:11]

Gained through observation and experimentation[00:00:13]

Usually beginning with a hypothesis[00:00:16]

Or what some may call an estimation[00:00:18]

Record your results from a series of tests[00:00:21]

And what your left with is a theory at best[00:00:23]

Now let me give my hypothesis an educated guess[00:00:26]

On why my people on the whole seem to be such a mess[00:00:28]

Genocide the deliberate extermination of a race [00:00:31]

Culture or an entire nation[00:00:34]

Centuries ago they brought us here on a boat[00:00:36]

Enslaved us beat us til our spirit was broke[00:00:39]

Then they gave us freedom and a little bit of hope[00:00:41]

Then they killed our leaders and they gave us d**e (crack)[00:00:44]

From the C I A by way of Nicaragua [00:00:47]

Shipped to Rick Ross he's the black godfather[00:00:49]

Now Oscar Blandon was his known supplier [00:00:52]

He snitched on Rick so he could retire[00:00:54]

Ratted on Ricky so he got out quickly [00:00:57]

Now this is where the situation gets a little sticky[00:00:59]

Not a citizen of the U S A [00:01:02]

He got released and got hired by the D E A [00:01:04]

Then he got his green card by the I N S [00:01:07]

But that should've never happened due to previous arrests[00:01:09]

See our government seems to think that there's a difference[00:01:12]

Between powdered coc*ine and crack for instance[00:01:15]

You get five years for five grams of crack[00:01:17]

But in the powdered form you have a hundred times that[00:01:20]

Now who has the rock and who has the powder [00:01:22]

Who's the oppressed and who has the power [00:01:25]

They want you to fail so you wind up in jail[00:01:27]

You know how much they make while you sitti'n in that cell [00:01:30]

Billions of dollars for inmate facilities[00:01:33]

You sell yourself back into slavery willingly[00:01:35]

It's not black and white it's so much more[00:01:38]

It's the rich stayin rich and the poor stayin poor[00:01:40]

The poor white's meth the poor black's crack[00:01:43]

It's not about race and once you realize that [00:01:45]

We as a nation are free to move on[00:01:48]

And become one people a movement strong[00:01:50]

Now black people weren't the first to be enslaved[00:02:13]

We were just the first to be treated this way[00:02:16]

No education you were killed if you could read[00:02:18]

So you hid your intellect if you wanted to succeed[00:02:21]

And what happens to a lie when you livin' it[00:02:24]

You lose sight of who you are and start forgettin' it[00:02:26]

So many of us to this day act ignorant[00:02:29]

A mere shadow of our form of magnificence[00:02:31]

Wellfare[00:02:34]

No independence we become victims dependin' on the system[00:02:35]

Looking for a handout waiting on some help[00:02:39]

Toiling on the past feeling sorry for your self[00:02:41]

But you do what you can to make it out the trap[00:02:44]

And that right there is the origin of rap[00:02:46]

It wasn't always played on every radio station[00:02:49]

It was us makin the best out of a bad situation[00:02:51]

Inner city schools stopped teaching us instruments[00:02:54]

We took turntables and started flippin' it[00:02:57]

Stole electricity from the street lights[00:02:59]

Plugged it into a system and made the beat hype[00:03:02]

There was a mic but MC's weren't rulin'[00:03:04]

It was more 'bout what the DJ was doin'[00:03:07]

He say a few words (GO GO) to keep the party movin'[00:03:09]

The beat boys dancin' to the breaks and the grooves[00:03:12]

An the break was the part where the record broke down[00:03:15]

Where it was just a drum and a couple of sounds[00:03:17]

You had two records you could go back and forth[00:03:20]

To keep the groove goin' cause the break was so short[00:03:22]

Now if that ain't' science I don't know what is[00:03:25]

The ingenuity of these young black kids[00:03:27]

The Bronx New York Central Recita[00:03:30]

Who hurt earth hip-hop true believers[00:03:32]

(Theory) Adversity produces opportunity[00:03:35]

Anythings accomplished through strength and unity[00:03:37]

The fate of the world is in the hip-hop commuity[00:03:40]

The revolution is here and now with you and me[00:03:43]

(Murs is a Scientist)[00:03:49]
