[00:19.350]Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair? Who taught you to hate the color of your skin to such extent that you bleach to get like the white man? Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose? And the shape of your lips? Who taught you to hate yourself?
[00:56.764]As I peel in my skin
[00:58.158]Dig in my vein
[00:59.370]I'm watching the demons within
[01:01.707]I'm watching this evil come out
[01:03.649]As I’m tryna come in, and
[01:05.983]As the rope on my chin
[01:07.557]Chokes all my kin
[01:08.788]I'm watching my niggas go limp
[01:11.125]I'm watching these moments forever I'll never forget, get
[01:15.485]God say hang those niggas
[01:17.059]No bandage needed
[01:18.455]On the back of Jesus
[01:20.099]Where's Nebekenezer
[01:22.002]Ecclesiastes, Jesus, or Bethlem, Caesar
[01:24.924]With my head on the concrete
[01:26.735]Sole of slavers
[01:27.881]Feel the taste of the underneath
[01:29.645]It's mob behavior
[01:31.113]If heaven needs 'em
[01:32.627]They'll praise and lead 'em
[01:34.352]Let's blame the eves then
[01:36.154]Snakes for treason
[01:37.305]The dead won't listen
[01:39.034]If lord forgives 'em
[01:40.618]He'll take a minute for selfish reasons
[01:43.795]If hell forgives him
[01:45.230]Have better chances
[01:46.673]Avenge the past then
[01:48.431]Let's take it back and just
[01:50.217]Pay 'em back for every happenin’
[01:53.224]As I peel in my skin
[01:54.614]Dig in my vein
[01:55.791]I'm watching my demons within
[01:58.150]I'm watching this evil come out
[02:00.141]As I’m tryna come in, and
[02:02.559]As the rope on my chin
[02:03.989]Chokes all my kin
[02:05.205]I'm watching my niggas go limp
[02:07.507]I'm watching these moments forever I'll never forget, get
[02:11.939]In the land of the corpses of men
[02:13.883]How hot can you get
[02:14.879]Without forming a sweat
[02:16.260]The jolting brung
[02:17.286]By the molten of flesh
[02:18.582]Convulsing strung
[02:19.630]In the chorus of death, and
[02:21.373]How is that any different from my life before
[02:23.679]The fights, the wars
[02:24.475]The light, the source
[02:25.345]The right, the wrong
[02:26.241]The Pike, the sword
[02:27.262]Ibuprofen, lighter doses
[02:28.916]Held up, in the psychy wards
[02:30.708]A Black Woman
[02:31.529]With plights ignored
[02:32.549]The sight, behold
[02:33.290]It’s frightening
[02:34.190]The nights is porous
[02:35.028]I just thought if my life’s important
[02:36.782]I wouldn’t have to pay a fortune for life’s assurance, and
[02:40.145]As I peel in my skin
[02:41.604]I need to win
[02:42.778]So, tearing a piece from my limb
[02:45.105]I'm thinking 'bout all of the shit that I need to forgive
[02:48.715]****, ****
[02:49.953]Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don't want to be around each other? No, before you come askin' Mr. Muhammad does he teach hate, you should ask yourself who taught you to hate being what God gave you
[03:12.359]I keep looking for this light
[03:18.961]A light of peace
[03:22.178]A light in me
[03:26.260]And it's searching for the truth
[03:32.526]It sets you free
[03:35.983]It's all in me
[03:40.644]And it's time to be
[03:45.744]What you are inside
[03:50.574]Inside your light is what you want to be
