Wake up, Niggers - The Last Poets[00:00:00]
Written by:Alafia Pudim[00:00:02]
Night descends as the sun's light ends[00:00:04]
And black comes back to blend again[00:00:10]
Wake up[00:00:13]
And with the depth of the sun[00:00:14]
Night blackness become one[00:00:16]
Blackness being you[00:00:19]
Peeping through the red the white and the blue[00:00:21]
Dreaming of bars black civilizations that once flourished and grew[00:00:24]
Hey wake up niggers or y'all through[00:00:28]
Drowning in the puddle of the white man's spit[00:00:31]
As you pause for some drawers in the midst of sh*t[00:00:34]
And ain't got nothing to save your funky a** with[00:00:37]
You cool fool sipping on a menthol cigarette' round midnight[00:00:40]
Rapping about how the big apple is outta sight[00:00:45]
When you ain't never had a bite[00:00:47]
Who are you fooling me you[00:00:49]
Wake up niggers or ya all through[00:00:52]
In uptown two roaches are drowned in each other's piss[00:00:54]
In downtown interracial lovers secretly kiss[00:00:57]
While junkies are dreaming of total bliss[00:01:01]
Somewhere in the atmosphere far away from here[00:01:04]
Beyond realms of white dimensions gathered by suppressed intentions[00:01:08]
As their cries cries cries go unrecognized[00:01:14]
Except by their keeper the grim reaper[00:01:18]
Save me a carnity shout as the lights go out[00:01:21]
'Cause you ain't paid your' electric bill[00:01:24]
And the rats and roaches move on in for the kill[00:01:26]
As your lips struggle the grain that last drought from the wine bottle[00:01:29]
And you roll snake eyes never to realizing that you blew[00:01:33]
Wake up niggers or ya all through[00:01:37]
Sitting in the corner with your minds tied to your behinds[00:01:40]
Bona fied members of niggers anonymous[00:01:44]
Never knowing which way you're going pimping off life[00:01:46]
Turning tricks to slick dicks with candy asses[00:01:50]
All masses are behelding a mind mourning for the late great black maaaaaaan[00:01:53]
Ahhhhhhh meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen[00:01:57]
You niggers understand up against the wall[00:02:00]
Black male and farmers are a blow you away[00:02:03]
And you'll never live to see the light of day[00:02:06]
And the nightstick the nightstick it glides gracefully upside yo' head[00:02:08]
That's right brothers and sisters you livin' dead[00:02:13]
When the cock crows and the night goes[00:02:16]
And it saves your a** in the nick of time[00:02:20]
As you wake up and you start to find[00:02:22]
Yourself laying up in bed scratching your a** in hand[00:02:25]
Trying to remember where you recall this veneer nightmare[00:02:29]
That always leave you feelin' blue[00:02:34]
But you still can't place the man face as hard as you try to[00:02:37]
Hey wake up niggers or we all through[00:02:41]
