ProfessorD.us - The Dope Poet Society - Strictly for My Negus lyrics

G-Fox, Chorus: My Negus, some Negus that you don't wanna try My Negus, the Negus that be up in the sky My Negus, my Negus is ready do or die My Negus, my Negus… Professor D, Verse 1: Yo this is Strictly for my Negus don't get it confused Let it get imbedded, set it in the rhetoric used From the endless abuse let's erase the n word And replace the n word with the greatness deserved They say the root is managed from the Spanish language for black But lets take it back again to the term of the African Ethiopian Amharic The j**el be this We replace the word n***a with the word Negus And we crush the connotation of subjugation and substitute with Something sayin' the African deserves admiration Negus Nagast king of kings as in ancient Meso- -potamian, now don't let ‘em mess up your name again Lose the term of endearment to insult each other and let's Exalt each other If you really are my brother We use the word sound to burn down this troubling thing Why would I treat my brother like anything other then King? You're my Negus! (Chorus) NewSense, Verse 2: They call us n***as and if we call us n***as then we're Drowning in our ignorance surrounded by differences Becoming lower citizens whose living in a place Where they'd rather die from dividends then keep livin' in this cage The government's making money of the tax in your place And they're taxing your pay it's like a smack in the face They ask you for your tax and you pay it you receive a Receipt, but you were asking for change, lady society's Soliciting cane, maybe violently push it away or Be touched, man you ain't crack you're a king Negus, no nonsense never negotiated extremely Evolved ebony educated genuinely Generated, gifted gods you underestimated Usually you'll see savage social subjectivity That's negus not n***as and I spit it in English for you so You could distinguish the two, that's not what a n***a would do (Chorus) Progress Negus, Verse 3: Definition of a negus is a king So check mi definition definitely and how mi do mi ting Mi's a king king vibes mi a'bring Look loyal in mi robe and all mi turban Mi still a king even with no bling Zillion dollar brain and mi generating Generally like a general Willy Lynch burial Launch an attack and mi yam all'dem cereal King complex mi a'build the imperial Truth for the youth all'a elevate them spiritual Root for the youth all'a grow ‘dem like miracle King in'a di ring atomic power fa mi lyrical In a world all designed to control your mind Subjugation wan mek di people consumer Flip it quick reflect light like lunar Kings a'di earth ya better listen dis'a tune ya (Chorus) Professor D, Verse 4 Part 1: This is not at all to put a man above another man Or say all of my Negus' are descendants of Solomon When we say King don't mean a king above men But the kingdom of brotherly love amongst men It's easy to repeat every lyric like a parrot But instead why not try to be a parent? And son a little Negus let ‘im do his thing And raise a future king like Martin Luther King NewSense, Verse 4 Part 2: They put you down Here (here?) yeah right about there just to See if you can clear the uneven hurtle of fear, we're the Little workers they need us that's why they heard us and breed us Work us and teach us that we're as worthless as n***as, Negus we Must synchronize as we bust sacred eyes out the Painted white face of lies n***as created right From the racist side of tainted white patriot pride We've laid the labels on the table now today you decide! (Chorus)
