Here comes the proper education* grand puba skats in the background *Rudebwoy!Fiyah! here comes the rudebwoy, ah ahh!Proper education, educationProper educationProper education, educationProper educationNow let me tell you folks just exactly what I meanThe way they try to lower, the black mans self esteemPut us in their schools and I call em mental gravesWhen they teach us bout ourselves, all we learn that we were slavesThen they say jesus was white, understandThat means that mystery God in the skys a white manThese two things alone make us start to feel inferiorThen we grow up thinkin they are superiorWhy does the black licorice taste the worst?Why does the black jellybean taste the worst?Why do the bad guys always wear black?Why is bad luck when you see a black cat?Cause theyre workin subconciously, subconciouslyWorkin subconciouslyWorkin subconciously, subconciouslyWorkin subconciouslyThis is why we must teach our strong black nationProper education, educationProper educationProper educationProper educationProper educationYes lord! easy now star! come again!Now they gave restitution to the japaneseYou see they gave restitution to the jewsNow over 400 years of slavery rape and murderBut I guess theres no restitution for the coonsThey wanna use us a tool, and also as a slaveIn the land of the free and the home of the braveMusa came to the cave and taught them ockThe tricknowledge that the devil once forgotNow the ten percent rules over the eighty-fiveYou see we have to do more than just keep hope aliveI dont hope and I dont do dopeBut I still feel the pain from my ancestors swingin on a ropeNow pardon me as I distill on a devils grillNow me trust a devil, huh, I never willI just catch my ? , grab my button, put it on my lapelGrab my people and get out of hellSee this is why we must teach our young black nationProper education, educationYesYes, we would like to say peace to all the gods and the earthsPeople of the universeThe original manI would like to say peace to my brother tony xYesWanna sayTo my physicals, free the landA-b-c
