So Misinformed (feat. Slick Rick)

I would like to say that this gentlemen and all other people who are not blessed with melanin at this point in time

To understand that what has happened in our history is that you have been misinformed

As much as we have been misinformed

Much of the information that is brought forth, not only Dr. Muhammad

But other areas, other scholars are not available to you, as the sister said, in your curriculums

That you had for four-hundred years when you did not allow us to read and write and was being hidden

Whether you, sir, personally did that or not, it was a legacy that was passed on to you

And I end by saying the Holocaust is simply the greatest atrocity on film

Ours was not filmed

No apology, equality

Youth is future, let's move forward

Healthy mentality, helps sanity

Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

Facts half backwards and inaccurate

Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

Good over evil, deceitful

Morals, principles, it's simple son

What will it take to get my peoples to connect together?

You know it's black excellence, to be complete together

Picture a photograph of black folks lit together

In high definition, and how I would never

Turn my back on the block, I got the block on my back

Like James Brown, boy, I'm proud to be black

To all my sisters, (Mother Earth has birthed us, lurchers, it hurts us, first, less heard this)

To all my sisters, ain't no knocking you back

Politicans politickin' with a gown and a cap

The house got flavor and I like it like that

Black girl power, yeah I'm rocking with that

Doors is getting kicked down, statues is getting ripped down

Presidents meeting over seas, just to have a sit down

They tryna keep us from runnin' up

I'd never tell you to get down, it's all about coming up

No apology, equality

Youth is future, let's move forward

Healthy mentality, helps sanity

Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

Facts half backwards and inaccurate

Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

Good over evil, deceitful

Morals, principles, it's simple son

(So what do you say?)

The foundation was laid, ya'll nation was made

Off our ancestors back, back, back in the days

400 years ago, ya'll made us slaves

And you can hear it in the spirit coming deep from the graves

Life is a maze

Smoke so much dope, you in a daze

But you ain't trippin', you gettin' paid

But who do you praise, but anyway

I read a history book but I ain't learn nothing, dawg

So I read the Bible then the holy Quran

Went to Jamaica to acquire my knowledge

Sat with some Rastas till my game got polished

The gangbang extreme with malice

Trees and degrees like I'm trained for college

Yeah, they tryna keep us from runnin' up

I'd never tell you to get down, it's all about coming up

No apology, equality

Youth is future, let's move forward

Healthy mentality, helps sanity

Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

Facts half backwards and inaccurate

Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

Good over evil, deceitful

Morals, principles, it's simple son

No apology, equality

Youth is future, let's move forward

Healthy mentality help sanity

Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

Facts half backwards and inaccurate

Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

Good over evil, deceitful

Morals, principles, it's simple son
