Bilal Bashir - Speak No Evil lyrics

[ Everlast ] Yo yo yo yo yo yo yo I'm in the studio with my brother, the Half Asiatic You know, the Fraction of Black Skin and the Smite of White It's my brother Kool Nick We about to drop some science on this track about God and what not You know, the world So watch me get busy [ VERSE 1: Everlast ] Step up, bow your head and be greatful You hunger for knowledge? I'm serving a plate full A 12 course meal on a black plate of wax So MC to feed (then sit back and relax) And try and digest the data I fed you I act and react this way cause I'm bred to The color of my skin something I take pride in Still my people insist on hidin Behind the aAerican dream and its lies (Like the Home of the Free and mom's apple pie I thought this was a melting pot) I guess not King stood up up for his rights and he got shot I speak no evil Yo Nick, do me a favor, man Step in [ VERSE 2: Kool Nick ] This world is crazy, it must be sick Be like Nick and get righteous real quick Jews, m**ms, Buddhists, Baptists Protestants, Hare Krishnas, Catholics Seek salvation and repentance This rhyme is from the heart and I meant this Jesus - shedded his blood for me He hung on a cross (yo, you know the story) Nowadays a lot of people are tryin To worship satan, but you're gonna fry in Hell, imagine burnin up forever The forecast is heat, there's no change of weather Damn, the devil will never twist this Mind with the mark of the beast or the 666 To God there no one equal That's why I speak no evil I speak no evil [ VERSE 3: Everlast ] Listen to the story of my Savior And how he gave up Life so you could live That's a hell of a gift to give (Kick it, E) Now as I take a look around I don't see many people down With my cause, huh, that's scary Tryin to diss the Son of Mary You're bein lured, so take the bait and Fall into the trap of satan Then your life is over without no sequel That's why I speak no evil I speak no evil (This style is terrific) --] KRS-One [ VERSE 4: Kool Nick ] E (yo) this environment's strange Brothers gettin shanked on the streets for gold chains Some smoke crack, c**aine and jumbo Brains so fried, when they talk they mumble How could this be society A ( ? ) place (where none of us wanna be) People gettin judged by the color of skin tone It wasn't like this way back with the Flinstones It's odd, sometimes I get kept back Because I'm half black, people can't accept that Yo, accept me for what I am But what can I do? Cause none of em give a damn All they want is to drive a Mercedes Have a million dollars (and live like the Brady's) But anyways, time is windin, not rewindin Look in your heart and start findin Peace and love, no matter what your creed is (Understand the knowledge at hand) and believe this I speak no evil [ Everlast ] Word up Yo We got my man Lofy in the house, man [ Kool Nick ] Got my boy Chris My brother Low-Dog My brother Fry My lady T [ Everlast ] Yo, we got Shawny Shawn [ Kool Nick ] My brother Shawny Shawn in the place [ Everlast ] Yo, what's up [ Kool Nick ] We got my brother E over in the corner over there [ Everlast ] Hahaha - yo, don't ever speak no evil [ Kool Nick ] Can't forget D-Rock Can't forget Kev Mack [ Everlast ] Yo, I like to send a shout out to the Almighty Supreme Being God [ Kool Nick ] God [ Everlast ] Word up [ Kool Nick ] Cause you know you rule [ Everlast ] Yo, yeah, yeah We outta here [ Kool Nick ] I'm out This is the Half-Asiatic signin off Peace [ Everlast ] The Half-Asiatic, you know And the Everlasting
