lirik lagu state of the art – honors english
[verse 1: sunni patterson]
i’m from a city where not only the skinny n-gga
but any n-gga can get it, get wit it where i’m from
where poverty and hunger leads to the slaughter of a son or a daughter
quick to get caught up where i’m from
you talk about k!llings in palenstine, come see it through our eyes
headline, 92 year old slain by police
bullets pullin’ our leg, wool over eyes, wolf in disguise
over there is over her now meanwhile
just 14 beat down billy clubs
the difference between the police and a thug, naught
not, nothing a not, now, now, tell me what’s new about a
culture of violence, a culture of weapons, a culture of might
keep the people silent, strip ’em of they human rights
bl–dy suppression, the court is in session
the guilty the verdict, take the system and burn it
burdens of our ancestors rest up on our shoulders
look, before columbus came, before the slave trade
before the guns and the whips and the iron chains
before them southern trees or the strangefruit
it’s blood at the leaves and it’s blood on the roots
right before columbus came, before the slave trade
before the guns and the whips and the iron chains
before them southern trees or the strangefruit
it’s blood at the leaves and it’s blood on the root
look
