[Verse 1]

The day begins, with a grin

And a prayer to excuse my sins

I can walk anywhere I choose

'Cause everybody listens to the B.D.P. crew

We're not here for glamour or fashion

But here's the question I'm askin'

Why isn't young black kids taught black?

They're only taught how to read, write, and act

It's like teachin' a dog to be a cat

You don't teach white kids to be black

Why is that? Is it because we're the minority?

Well black kids follow me

Genesis chapter eleven verse ten

Explains the genealogy of Shem

Shem was a black man, in Africa

If you repeat this fact they can't laugh at ya

Genesis fourteen verse thirteen

Abraham steps on the scene

Being a descendant of Shem which is a fact

Means, Abraham too was black

Abraham born in the city of a black man

Called Nimrod grandson of Ham

Ham had four sons, one was named Canaan

Here, let me do some explaining

Abraham was the father of Isaac

Isaac was the father of Jacob

Jacob had twelve sons, for real

And these, were the children of Israel

According to Genesis chapter ten

Egyptians descended from Ham

Six hundred years later, my brother, read up

Moses was born in Egypt

In this era black Egyptians weren't right

They enslaved black Israelites

Moses had to be of the black race

Because he spent forty years in Pharaoh's place

He passed as the Pharaoh's grandson

So he had to look just like him

Yes my brothers and sisters take this here song

Yo, correct the wrong

The information we get today is just wack

But ask yourself, why is that?

[Verse 2]

The age of the ignorant rapper is done

Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone

The stereotype must be lost

That love and peace and knowledge is soft

Do away with that and understand one fact

For love, peace must attack

And attack real strong, stronger than war

To conquer it and its law

Mental pictures, stereotypes and fake history

Reinforces mystery

And when mystery is reinforced

That only means that knowledge has been lost

When you know who you really are

Peace and knowledge shines like a star

I'm only showin' you a simple fact

It takes a nation of millions to hold us people back

Which is wack, but we can correct that

Teach and learn what it is to be black

'Cause they're teaching birds to be a cat

But ask yourself homeboy, why is that?
