lirik lagu double conscious – likwuid
[verse]
white kids rocking dreads, black girls with perms
acculturation was assimilated, when will we learn?
but i still sit once a month to get my scalp burned
so folks can ask me if i got indian in my family, not knowing that the term is native american
students don’t believe everything in their curriculum
i heard that chris columbus was a hero in the first grade and white folks were very cordial to slaves
they did it voluntarily, some even got paid
[?], why’d they skew my learning?
and now i’m in this film class that i don’t even need
‘cause my institution tuition is run off of greed
if it’s for my best interest, then why ain’t it free?
they just need another way to divide society between the haves and the have*nots
half*ass half past halfway to the halfway house
if you had had a [?] in your system that’s designed to fail
ask me for [?] straight to prison, not jail
that’s where the n*ggas are housed in, i’m african american
that’s ‘bout as different as one needle and two bangs
we both take the hit ‘cause we share the same pain
two separate towers crumble but carry the same name
my life for yours, are both affected in the same fate
[?]
i guess that’s why my homeboy jay died of aids
here today, gone tomorrow, i hear taps being played
forefather soldier fighting wars for these politicians
every battlefield position, ‘nother homicide mission
foolish pride became suicide, you living patriotic?
saluting the same flag that’ll murder your ass?
for akin to cash withdraw, likwuid stylez tell you all
even the greatest empire one day must fall
karl marx, communism, illuminati
i wonder who k!lled pac, x and bob marley
the government got us locked, we so computer*pr*ne
i think they got tracking systems in cell phones
it only costs a piece of your mind, a part of your soul
they try to trick you, money where the evil will rose
the new world order, “in god we trust” on every dollar
take prayers out of school, which god do you follow?
just ‘cause you got time, don’t mean it ain’t the final hour
just ‘cause sh*t smells sweet, don’t mean that it’s a flower
invisible like corsets catholics put on they body
i’m god*body, ain’t a person on this earth can stop me
they crucify me but i resurrect
i see my cross as a crossroads so i never sweat
get off your soapbox, drop in a sweatbox
why shoot your brother? throw a bullet at a cop (pop)
whether with your schoolbooks or with your guns c*cked
fight the power and defend your block from booker t. or the boys who can still make noise with your frat bruhs or on the corner with your boy
sorority, fraternity, blood, crip
republican, democrat, same sh*t
rather pledging allegiance or throwing up a fist
be an individual, not a slave to the government
be an individual, not a slave to the government
get your fists in the sky
peace
