They School (他们学校) (Explicit) - Dead Prez[00:00:00]
Written by:C. Gavin/L. Alford/Andrew Mair/V. Williams[00:00:00]
Man that school sh*t is a joke[00:00:03]
The same people who control the school system control[00:00:07]
The prison system and the whole social system[00:00:10]
Ever since slavery [00:00:15]
Nawsayin [00:00:17]
I went to school with some redneck crackers[00:00:23]
Right around the time 3rd Bass dropped the cactus album[00:00:25]
But I was readin Malcolm[00:00:28]
I changed my name in '89[00:00:29]
Cleaning parts of my brain like a baby nine[00:00:31]
I took a history class serious[00:00:33]
Front row every day of the week 3rd period[00:00:36]
F**kin with the teachers head callin em racist[00:00:38]
I tried to show them crackers some light [00:00:41]
They couldn't face it[00:00:42]
I got my diploma from a school called Rickers[00:00:43]
Full of teenage mothers and drug dealin niggas[00:00:46]
In the hallways the popo was always present[00:00:48]
Searchin through niggas possessions [00:00:51]
Lookin for d**e and weapons [00:00:52]
Get your lessons[00:00:53]
That's why my moms kept stressin[00:00:54]
I tried to pay attention but they classes weren't interestin[00:00:56]
They seemed to only glorify the Europeans[00:00:59]
Claimin Africans were only three-fifths o' human beings[00:01:01]
They schools can't teach us sh*t[00:01:04]
My people need freedom [00:01:06]
We tryin to get all we can get[00:01:07]
All my high school teachers can suck my dick[00:01:09]
Tellin me white man lies straight b******t (echoes)[00:01:11]
They schools ain't teachin us [00:01:14]
What we need to know to survive (Say what say what)[00:01:19]
They schools don't educate [00:01:24]
All they teach the people is lies[00:01:29]
You see dog you see how quick these motherf**kers be to like[00:01:34]
Be tellin niggas get a diploma so you can get a job[00:01:36]
Knowwhatimsayin but they don't never tell you how the job[00:01:39]
Gonna exploit you every time knowwhatimsayin[00:01:42]
That's why I be like[00:01:43]
F**k they schools [00:01:45]
School is like a 12 step brainwash camp[00:01:46]
They make you think if you drop out you ain't got a chance[00:01:47]
To advance in life [00:01:51]
They try to make you pull your pants up[00:01:52]
Students fight the teachers[00:01:53]
And get took away in handcuffs[00:01:54]
And if that wasn't enough [00:01:56]
Then they expel y'all[00:01:57]
Your peoples understand it but to them [00:01:58]
You a failure[00:02:00]
Observation and participation [00:02:01]
My favorite teachers[00:02:01]
When they beat us in the head with them books [00:02:02]
It don't reach us[00:02:05]
Whether you breakdance or rock suede addidas[00:02:06]
Or be in the bathroom with your clique smokin reefer[00:02:08]
Then you know they math class ain't important[00:02:11]
'Less you addin up cash[00:02:13]
In multiples unemployment ain't rewardin[00:02:14]
They may as well teach us extortion[00:02:16]
You either get paid or locked up [00:02:18]
The principal is like a warden[00:02:20]
In a four year sentence mad niggas never finish[00:02:22]
But that doesn't mean I couldn't be a doctor or a dentist[00:02:24]
They schools can't teach us sh*t[00:02:27]
My people need freedom we tryin to get all we can get[00:02:29]
All my high school teachers can suck my dick[00:02:31]
Tellin me white man lies straight b******t (echoes)[00:02:34]
They schools can't teach us sh*t[00:02:36]
My people need freedom we tryin to get all we can get[00:02:38]
All my high school teachers can suck my dick[00:02:42]
Tellin me white man lies straight b******t (echoes)[00:02:44]
They schools ain't teachin us [00:02:47]
What we need to know to survive (Say what say what)[00:02:52]
They schools don't educate [00:02:57]
All they teach the people is lies[00:03:02]
Cuz for real a mind is a terrible thing to waste[00:03:40]
And all y'all high class niggas with y'all nose up[00:03:43]
Cuz we droppin this sh*t on this joint f**k y'all[00:03:45]
We gon speak for ourselves[00:03:49]
Knowhatimsayin [00:03:50]
Cuz see the schools ain't teachin us nothin[00:03:52]
They ain't teachin us nothin[00:03:54]
But how to be slaves and hardworkers[00:03:55]
For white people to build up they sh*t[00:03:57]
Make they businesses successful while it's exploitin us[00:04:00]
Knowhatimsayin And they ain't teachin us nothin related to[00:04:03]
Solvin our own problems knowhatimsayin [00:04:07]
Ain't teachin us how to get crack out the ghetto[00:04:08]
They ain't teachin us how to stop the police from murdering us[00:04:11]
And brutalizing us [00:04:14]
They ain't teachin us how to get our rent paid[00:04:15]
Knowhatimsayin [00:04:17]
They ain't teachin our families how to interact[00:04:18]
Better with each other [00:04:20]
Knowhatimsayin They just teachin us[00:04:21]
How to build they sh*t up [00:04:23]
Knowhatimsayin That's why my niggas[00:04:24]
Got a problem with this sh*t [00:04:26]
That's why niggas be droppin out that[00:04:28]

You go to school the f**kin police[00:04:31]
Searchin you you walkin in your sh*t like[00:04:32]
This a military compound[00:04:34]
Knowhatimsayin [00:04:36]
So school don't even relate to us[00:04:36]
Until we have some sh*t where we control the f**kin school system[00:04:38]
Where we reflect how we gon solve our own problems[00:04:42]
Them niggas ain't gon relate to school [00:04:45]
Sh*t that just how it is[00:04:47]
Knowhatimsayin And I love education [00:04:49]
Knowhatimsayin [00:04:51]
But if education ain't elevatin me [00:04:52]
Then you knowhatimsayin it ain't[00:04:54]
