Mr. Lif - Black Dialogue lyrics

[Akrobatik] Yeah, it was written in the books of Europeans we were savage That our history was insignificant and minds below average But how can one diminish the work Of the most imitated culture on this earth Fast foward to 2000 and now You see it everywhere you look, speech, music, fasion and style It's black dialogue Go ahead kid, try it on It's much harder to master than precision with firearms Corny n***as switch it up and rent it to Viacom But it was taught to me early on by my mom Master yourself, for maximum outreach potential Respect that you get from that will roll exponential Preferential treatment, brings us heat when It only goes to those who rock the diamonds and sequence They invite the kiddies to the video show To watch the fake titty models all act like hoes I guessed it goes the more ignorants the more pressed But everywhere I look I see black people with more stress But does that mean we should be shucking and jiving f**ing and kniving just to keep our bank accounts thriving See I walked the path my elder laid out Cause acting like a monkey for white folks is played out I get my own money, on my own turn Got heat for everybody, watch the microphone burn [Mr. Lif] Let me tell you about my n***as nowadays Nowadays n***as acting like slaves because it pays many ways A, to get the p**y - B, to get the cars C, the j**els around their neck But their demise is not farfetched Step with that Uncle Tom, f**ing palm action And my TV's always off because I see something truely black then Aww sh**, got a call from Brother Malcolm Awakening from the grave, he's asking "what the f** happened" I said these n***as all want homes in the Hamptons It's Dimension shows so they do what white man asks them Throwing money at the screen that other brother ain't catching Yes, hellish foes, and now they rest in peace, thanks for asking They rather teach eachother how to fire chrome than to buy a home There's power in the land that we own You need capital to start to win the capitialism Take the money from the sales and find a place to be living Rather black landlords than white chalk on the floor Our mentalities for casualites are keeping us poor And the poor teach the rich how to work Rich teach the kids how to invest Hence we dying from stress And the rhythm from the drums shine its own sun My father said, "you think a brighter day ever gon' come" I said, "pop, rock the beat box And I'm a empty out my mind cause I'm around till I drop" Yo, Martin and Malcolm knew it Black dialogue Grandma Moses drew it Black dialogue Stevie Wonder seen it Black dialogue Many games to steam with Black dialogue Jim Brown, ran with Black dialogue Huey Newton had a plan with Black dialogue Chuck D took a stand for Black dialogue KRS is the man with Black dialogue The whole world is after Black dialogue The whole world is after Black dialogue The whole world is after Black dialogue
