Pete Rock And Cl Smooth - Anger In The Nation Lyrics
You know, nowadays it.. seems like theres a lot of..Bad things going on and.. I guess a lot of it..From the way I see it.. seems to still stem from..Lack of feelings on our parts, its..And how we relate or communicate with our..Fellow brothers and sistersLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raiseLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raise[cl smooth]South africa, what does it mean?To burst the scene, or conquer like a philisteneWar or peace, which one do you prefer?Pass me my m-16 for the disasterA reason for the treason in a jet black season.... for peace, justice, and freedomFor the original man, architect of the motherlandKings to queens, is the asiatic black planPre-adam-ite, first to see the lightWay before adam and eve took flightBless the seed of abraham, I came to jamProtest the teachings of another manUncle tom stay loyal so they boilIm the alchemist with the twist from the true soilMy blood brother adolpho on the side of meMy vision aint blurry, so dont even lie to meThe rebirth the revival of our culture survivalTo elevate, the black man is vitalYou gotta realize now what were facingThe floors Im pacing from the anger in the nationLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raiseLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raise[cl smooth]Heres the situation from a darker viewNight and day, salt and pepper in the earthly stewBut the salt think it taste better, straight up superiorTherefore, the flavor of the peppers inferiorIncorrect though, giving some heartburnLevel of a devil better wait your turnAnd here is one recollection of imperfectionNo one should be judged by complexionLie-braries; broken down as lies buriedTo force their beliefs to pilgrims all hurriedTelevision; tell-a-lie-visionA schism; negative realismFour-hundred-and-thirty-five years til weakMental deaf dumb and blindness put us to sleepOut of the dark comes light so the first cant beSo armaggedeon comes like a thief in the nightRednecks flex to my context but in the projectsSome wont survive the next confrontationAnd Im aware of segregationPump your black fist for the anger in the nationLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raiseLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raise* various other scratches by pete rock for a few bars *[cl smooth]Some walk slow, cause the waters not shallowLet my people go, you little pharoahListen how they word it, be observantThen house negro; today, civil servantI want to drop the bomb but remain calmStrong like the power of the fruits of islamBlack is beautiful, hot like fireGuess how many times they thought they killed the messiahMalcolm x, dr. king, lets singAll around the world let freedom ringReality is real, so how do you feelFrom being kings on a throne to picking cotton in a field?Your slavery is lack of identityOne of the things thats not making you a friend of mineWhats your cause - aim, rationale?Cause I made up my mind, I never scrape or bowBut teach my own, the sound of black unityTogether we can rise and nows the opportunityThe tuskegee experiment, indeed it was bigWhen they used the black man as a guinea pigAnimalism, pumped on a lower levelBut can only be the works of the devilAnd Im telling you now the frustrationThe futures facing from the anger in the nationLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raiseLets get together! * cut n scratch 3x *Lets get together.. and raise* pete rock flips lets get together to the end *
