I get down to what it is[00:00:03]

And if it ain't funky (see ya)[00:00:05]

People askin' me what's goin' on[00:00:08]

With my mind[00:00:09]

(Huh) wait a minute[00:00:11]

It's just a matter of race[00:00:21]

Cause a black male's in their face[00:00:21]

Step back for the new jack swing[00:00:22]

On the platter scatter huh[00:00:25]

We got our own thing[00:00:26]

Just jam to let the rhythm run[00:00:29]

Day to day, America eats it's young[00:00:31]

And defeats our women[00:00:33]

There is a gap so wide we all can swim in[00:00:34]

Drown in (uh get down) an get it[00:00:37]

Got it goin' on wit it[00:00:40]

Sister (hey) soul sister[00:00:41]

We goin' be all right[00:00:44]

It takes a man to take a stand[00:00:45]

Understand it takes a[00:00:47]

Woman to make a stronger man[00:00:48]

(As we both get strong)[00:00:50]

They'll call me a crazy Asiatic[00:00:51]

While I'm singin' a song[00:00:52]

Oh my god, oh my lord[00:00:54]

I can't hold back[00:00:56]

But I get exact on a track[00:00:56]

It's an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth[00:00:57]

Forget about me[00:01:00]

Just set my sister free[00:01:01]

R-e-s-p-e-c-t my sisters, not my enemy[00:01:02]

(Cause we'll be stronger together)[00:01:06]

And make the suckers say[00:01:08]

(Damn) this generation[00:01:08]

They don't know what we got goin' is (sound)[00:01:19]

To turn it all around[00:01:22]

To my sisters I communicate[00:01:23]

With the bass and tone[00:01:24]

Through speakers and the microphone[00:01:25]

Cause I'm tired of America dissin' my sisters[00:01:27]

(For example, like they dissed Tawana)[00:01:29]

And they try to say she's a liar[00:01:32]

My people don't believe it[00:01:33]

But even now they're getting higher[00:01:35]

Of the feeling inspiration[00:01:36]

We must know that in this nation[00:01:38]

Every single generation[00:01:40]

(They teach us how to dis our sisters)[00:01:42]

Strange as you say, I say revolution[00:01:44]

Need for change brings on revolution[00:01:46]

The great book just look see solution[00:01:48]

God chooses who and what for the bruisin'[00:01:51]

There's been no justice for none[00:01:53]

Of my sisters[00:01:54]

Just us been the ones that's been missin' her[00:01:55]

Now we got to protect[00:01:57]

We get together and damn this generation[00:02:00]

I said so to what it is[00:02:02]

Where it is[00:02:03]

She needs a lil' respect[00:02:03]

There it is[00:02:04]

I say she needs a lotta[00:02:05]

Brother from a mother like me has gotta[00:02:07]

Give it up[00:02:09]

Give it now[00:02:10]

And pass it all around[00:02:11]

To my soul (sister)[00:02:13]

They disrespected mama and treated her like dirt[00:03:04]

America took her, reshaped her, raped her[00:03:07]

Nope, it never made the paper[00:03:10]

Beat us, mated us[00:03:12]

Made us attack our woman in black[00:03:14]

So I said sophisticated B, don't be one[00:03:16]

Not to head the warning crack of dawn[00:03:19]

Or is it the dawn of crack?[00:03:21]

Stop the talk they say, but[00:03:22]

We talk and say what's right or wrong[00:03:23]

Some say we wasting time singin' a song[00:03:25]

But why is it that we're many different shades[00:03:27]

Black woman's privacy invaded years and years[00:03:29]

You cannot count my mama's tears[00:03:31]

It's not the past but the future's[00:03:33]

What she fears[00:03:35]

Strong we be strong[00:03:36]

The next generation[00:03:37]

It's what not who we are facin'[00:03:38]

The fingers pointed to us in our direction[00:03:40]

The blind state of mind needs correction[00:03:42]

Word to the mother we tighten connection[00:03:44]

To be a man you need no election[00:03:46]

This generation generates a new attitude[00:03:48]

Sister to you we should not be rude[00:03:50]

So we come together[00:03:52]

And make 'em all say[00:03:53]

Damn this generation[00:03:55]
