Arrested Development - Mister Landlord Lyrics
Mr. Landlord step off my yardMr. Landlord I understand.You have a right to check out yo land cuz it's "yo land".My family told me you've been peekin in windosForcing themto be a little scared keeping curtains closed.I protect my house but on tourI try to find a home where my people are secure,Your racist views are the views of your ownBut please don't let it enter my family zone.Just lettin' you know, I'm not a lil ole' colored boyThat steps off the curb when you walk your walkSo please don't mistake my kindness for blindnessI've known yo game since Columbus cameAnd if I woulda known how your neck was burnin' red.In your complex I wouldn't of been caught dead,So here's my message from me to youMy space is off limits until we move!You understand that!Mr. Landlord step of my yardMr. Landlord I have to questionDo you expect me to chill while ou're bumrushinYou thought we were the passive kind well yo're mistakin'You outta give nuff respect like I'm JamaicanThe point is I feel you endanger my prideYour racist comments, yhour racist approach I aint with...It's bad enough there's kids in there that are strugglinFinding themselves with out you bringin' racism!Just to bring peace do I have to get a piece?And in the break of dawn I guess I'll pray 2 the eastCuz I'm not the one to get slapped on the cheekWithout my fist curling up to hit you back in yo teeth! Yo(free yourself-free yourself-freedom)is what we want not a fightWaving Confederate flags & gun toting' is your typeYou ever heard of Ogune, well soon his spellWill clear my brain while he clears where I dwell.I call on the natural forces that be..To help to free me, to free me!Al-ya bolia bol-I YAAl-ya bolia bol-I YAA yaah ea yaah ea
