"Recently there has been an emergence of socially[00:00:05]

Conscious and political rappers It seems to be[00:00:07]

A new trend in the Hip-Hop world "[00:00:11]

Yeah check it uh[00:00:27]

Spot build-rocker lil' papa killed Hoffa[00:00:28]

Beard lil' longer feel strong and I'll stop ya[00:00:29]

Drill sergeant still thorough wheelbarrows of distilled vodka[00:00:31]

Get me real bonkers like Will Ferrell on cat tranquilizer[00:00:35]

Rap guys get bank and think they messiahs but they liars[00:00:38]

Vote fo who now You're red white and blue [00:00:41]

I'm American too but I ain't with the president's crew[00:00:44]

What you peddlin' and who you peddlin' to [00:00:46]

You ain't got the ghetto with you[00:00:48]

Try'na lead my sheep to the slaughterhouse[00:00:50]

Talkin 'bout +Rap the Vote+ you ain't thought about[00:00:52]

The black vote mean nathan who you gonna elect[00:00:55]

Satan or Satan In the hood nothin is changin uh[00:00:57]

We ain't got no choices who to choose[00:01:00]

Ten-years ago they were tryin to stop our voices[00:01:02]

And end Hip-Hop they some hypocrites[00:01:04]

Condoleeza Rice - I don't really get this chick[00:01:07]

Tell her if she ever really cared about poor schools[00:01:09]

About poor children then she gotta prove that she[00:01:12]

Ain't just another coon Uncle Tom fool[00:01:15]

Like these MC's gotta give 'em the rules[00:01:17]

Lie to the youth Uncle Tom you confused[00:01:19]

Might as well give the Hip-Hop community a noose[00:01:21]

Need a truce with the gangs and some food for the hungry[00:01:24]

On Kerry nuts he look at you like a monkey[00:01:27]

You MC's on that old slavery path[00:01:29]

The Bushs'll look at yo' a** and laugh[00:01:31]

See it's all about community let's help ourselves[00:01:33]

Cops brutalize us get dealt with with shells[00:01:36]

It's our turn it's 'bout time we win[00:01:39]

Need somebody as the hood as my councilman uh[00:01:41]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:01:45]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:01:48]

( Cause that's the American way)[00:01:52]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:01:54]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way[00:01:58]

Up in the steam room chillin' exfoliating the skin[00:02:02]

It's rarely men conversatin' on ends probably businessmen[00:02:05]

I sense good taste and they watch us the spots an expensive place[00:02:08]

Manhattan New York I'm try'na keep steamin'[00:02:12]

It's good for the lungs had plans for the evening[00:02:15]

This man leans in his boys laughing[00:02:17]

Now I'm the spokesperson for Black men this always happens[00:02:19]

Says "Since all Black women care about is who got dough[00:02:22]

And all we do is call them either b**ch or a Black hoe"[00:02:25]

I say first brotha you ain't gotta be that cold[00:02:28]

Since you ignorant I'ma show you how the facts go[00:02:30]

The biggest example in scandal of history[00:02:32]

Were Monica Lewinksy or Donald Trump's pimping spree[00:02:34]

Most woman who love Jeevanji of Gucci[00:02:37]

Are pretentious non-Black groupies or floozies[00:02:40]

But who are we to blame not the dames[00:02:42]

It's a man-made game in essence our woman the same[00:02:44]

Beautiful creatures Black girls birthed the earth[00:02:47]

So they deserve to earn man's purse[00:02:49]

Matter fact I'm about to go shopping with my dime[00:02:51]

Catch you cowards the next time the next rhyme uh[00:02:53]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:02:58]

( That's the American way)[00:03:00]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:03:01]

( Cause that's the American way What up K )[00:03:04]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:03:08]

( That's the American way)[00:03:10]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way sh*t[00:03:12]

( Ha yeah)[00:03:14]

I don't care about the runaways[00:03:16]

I don't care about who's gay[00:03:18]

I don't care about dying of AIDS[00:03:20]

But I care if I got paid[00:03:22]

Who even cares about the president [00:03:24]

I think they're making a mistake[00:03:26]

I don't care about the hurricane[00:03:29]

As long as my family's safe[00:03:32]

I don't care about the candidates[00:03:34]

They burnt this country to bits[00:03:37]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way ( Uh)[00:03:39]

Can we make a change[00:03:46]

You know it's not overnight[00:03:47]

Let's start the fight (Nas: And ya don't stop uh)[00:03:50]

Can we make a change[00:03:54]

You know it's not overnight[00:03:56]

Let's start the fight (Nas: Yeah)[00:03:59]

Yeah I think about this everyday that's the American Way[00:04:03]
