(feat. Isaac Hayes)

[Intro:]

When I was a lad
We had indentured bond servants
Stout conishman and Scotsman

{Indeed sir endeed
And if one of them runs away you couldn't tell 'em from any other Englishman
But take our black slave sir

and no matter how far they run they always black}

[Chorus:]

Now you wanna kill me
That may be true 1,2
But can you kill the ^!$$% in you

Now you wanna kill me
Cause my lyrics be true
But can you kill the ^!$$% in you


[Verse 1:]
Quiet as it's kept

Some of y'all slept on yourself
Next time you hit the mirror black
Turn you back on yourself

I wouldn't trust some a y'all
If you was my right hand, man
I'd cut it off at the wrist

Like you name was Benedict
Enough lead
To threaten 50 ^!$$%s dead, you said

Cause ^!$$%s is back to perms & relaxers
All up in their head
TV ^!$$%s only make you laugh, embarrass

Can you catch it
^!$$% fever new season
Of modern day Stephen Fetchits 1990's

^!$$%s be fraid of the noise I made
Bout their master crackers giving out
Disasters in the hood

Phony honeys be gone when they moneys be gone
^!$$%resses artificial chests'
Posin fake hair & high dresses


[Chorus x2]


Now you wanna kill me
That may be true 1,2
But can you kill the ^!$$% in you

Now you wanna kill me
Cause my lyrics be true
But can you kill the ^!$$% in you


[Verse 2:]
Madd ^!$$%s hittin %#@!

But they health be quittin it
Clothes and car makin the men
Havin counterfeitin fit

Seizing ^!$$%s be praisin
Benzes Beemers when they got em
Shined and simonized foreclosed

Bit they grills be rotten
Simon sez ^!$$%s jump
And they jump for these Hilfiggers

Tommy hates ^!$$%s high priced styles
White as wild rice
^!$$%s be dwellin in hell and the

Negros pray for heaven
$#&@ the preacher he don't reach
You my ^!$$% roll a seven

^!$$%s forgettin trips about those
Slavery ships
^!$$%s wasn't there they claim

$#&@ that ^!$$% bring the pain
^!$$%s be dealin Narcotic
But don't get the money ^!$$%

Women or the fame my ^!$$%
Or the mother $#&@in game

[Chorus x2]


Now you wanna kill me
That may be true 1,2
But can you kill the ^!$$% in you
Now you wanna kill me
Cause my lyrics be true

But can you kill the ^!$$% in you

[Outro:]
Check it
Brother Isac drop it on the groove one time

Let the beats check-check out your mind
Brother Isac Hayes

[Isaac Hayes:]
Yo-yo brothers I say to you

Become literate, study your history
Then you know where you need to go
Don't get socialy anestezied, thinkin you got the rock
When you got the pable
Learn who you are
Come together and survive

It's time to learn to love again
It's time to stand out and be near
Think about your history
And free it from your misery
Learn... to love again

(Now you wanna kill me

That may be true 1,2)
It's time to learn to love again
(Now you wanna kill me
Cause my lyrics be true)
It's time to learn to love again
(Now you wanna kill me
That may be true 1,2)

It's time to learn to love again
(Now you wanna kill me
Cause my lyrics is true)
Learn ! To love again
