Grand Puba - Proper Education lyrics

rate me

Here comes the proper education

* Grand Puba skats in the background *

Rudebwoy!

Fiyah! Here comes the rudebwoy, ah ahh!

Proper education, education

Proper education

Proper education, education

Proper education

Now let me tell you folks just exactly what I mean

The way they try to lower, the black man's self esteem

Put us in their schools and I call em mental graves

When they teach us bout ourselves, all we learn that we were slaves

Then they say Jesus was white, understand

that means that Mystery God in the sky's a white man

These two things alone make us start to feel inferior

Then we grow up thinkin they are superior

Why 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 they're workin subconciously, subconciously

Workin subconciously

Workin subconciously, subconciously

Workin subconciously

This is why we must teach our strong black nation

Proper education, education

Proper education

Proper education

Proper education

Proper education

Yes lord! Easy now star! Come again!

Now they gave restitution to the Japanese

You see they gave restitution to the Jews

Now over 400 years of slavery rape and murder

but I guess there's no restitution for the coons

They wanna use us a tool, and also as a slave

in the land of the free and the home of the brave

Musa came to the cave and taught them Ock

the tricknowledge that the Devil once forgot

Now the ten percent rules over the eighty-five

You see we have to do more than just keep hope alive

I don't hope and I don't do dope

but I still feel the pain from my ancestors swingin on a rope

Now pardon me as I distill on a Devil's grill

Now me trust a Devil, huh, I never will

I just catch my ?, grab my button, put it on my lapel

Grab my people and get out of hell

See this is why we must teach our young black nation

Proper education, education

Yes

Yes, we would like to say peace to all the Gods and the Earths

People of the universe

The original man

I would like to say peace to my brother Tony X

Yes

Wanna say

to my physicals, free the land
