Boogie Down Productions - Drug Dealer lyrics

rate me

All over the world...

Chorus:

Black drug dealer, you have to wise up

And organize your business so that we can rise up

If your gonna sell crack then don't be a fool

Organize your money and open up a school

Verse One:

Drug dealer, understand historical fact

Every race got ahead from sellin drugs except Black

We are under attack, here comes another cold fact

In the 30's and 40's a drug dealer wasn't black

They were Jewish, Italian, Irish, Polish, etc. etc.

Now in 90 their live's a lot better

They'll sell you a sweater, a pair of pants cold hearted

But first sellin drugs and killin people is how they started

Drug dealer, black and Hispanic, stop killin one another

Cause in the ghetto we're all brothers

Organized economically, understand the psychology

America is the drug monopoly

They own the block and kill your brother for

Therefore, we got the same enemy - what's more, I go on tour

But who do you think picks up the bill?

A hard workin fireman? Chill

Repeat Chorus 2X

Verse Two:

Eighty percent of American business is created illegally

This is a fact I don't ask you to believe in me

If you're really in the drug game to win it

Eventually you're gonna get shot, open a clinic

Again, if you're really in the drug game to win it

Invest in a prison, therefore you can be put in it

Everyone else did it now they chillin

Above the law, while your under the law still killin

One another, wake up my Hispanic brother, my African brother

America's not your mother

Or your father, so don't bother with right or wrong

Just check out the logic in the song

Organize, realize, become unhypnotized

To the lies that your livin for the get high

See many people have forgotten the fact

That America was never ever built for Black

So when some people are gonna run and buy crack

Take the money and put it back into Black

It's only logic, see KRS-One will rock it

With knowledge, education for the people I抣l never stop it

Organize and legitimize your business

Remember, everybody else did this

Repeat Chorus 2X
