Chubb Rock - My Brother Lyrics
What youre trying to tell me gIf I walk down to the corner and shop Im a gonerA bodega is a no-no so where should I get my grubWithout you idiots trying to rub -- me outCause Im the victim on your main routeYou take me out and you might get some cloutAnger is driving around in a red wranglerLooking for all you black stranglersTo squeeze your reasoning try to find the answerYou try to rob youll get a jolly rancherFor ya dragon, brotherly strength and gagginPut away the gun son, runFor cover, seek sanctuary with your motherAhh my brotherMy brother four timesTake the time to check the clock and dont smotherOther being when both are already fleeingFrom the same oppression, the lessonHere has been ignored for many years and yearsFears has created many hostile yearsHoover sustained the first hate maneuverJiggaboo and now I have to also be afraid of youThink like brown or franklin and be thankingThe one you pray to, theyre after you tooDont try to switch, theyre not after no otherBut us my brotherMississippit burning gets my stomach churning and yearningI d ont care how much were earningEach year we dissipate in the air yeahChange our line of thought put away the damn quartOf brew the intoxicated crew knewWe couldnt come hither if were destroying our liverSo what should we do earn our little pittanceAnd act real ignorant just like the buttminsPut away our t hings and sing a different soundCome home and you might get beat downDown down down you wont touch no otherWhy not no other, my brother
