lirik lagu clane matthew – “the unspoken word”
(spoken word verse begins)
“as a black man in the united states of america
we get shut, put and shot down like beasts and wild animals”
“as black man in the united states of america
our lives get lesser and lesser
as our culture, music and dance moves
get popular…”
“it was 300 years ago
when my ancestors first
walked upon this continent
as another man’s property…”
“and it was over 500 years
when my ancestors
were stolen from the tribes of africa
and striped of their pride, cultures and freedom
forever”
“brought to a new world
where they were told
they will never go back
and they all were called
a new name
the spanish word for “black”;
“and even in the present
we still fight the same devils
the same demons
the same people
that plague and torture us for
solely being
different”
“and this is why i get p-ssed
at these bum -ss
trash -ss rappers
who
only talk about
f-cking b-tches and pouring henny
and counting papers over weed
drugs and hard liquor”
“the fashion
fast cars
fame
and gold chains
are what the oppressors use to
keep on the chains of
mental slavery;
so it’s hard to emanc-p-te ourselves
because we’ve grown attached
and dependent
to all this vanity”
“we tend to talk about how the young generation of
black men and black women
is going to sh-t
but we say and do everything else
except polishing it;
polishing it to the extent
in which we shine bright like a diamond
and outshine those who are dull
and weak minded”
“as a black man in the united states of america
the only things these folks appreciate is my athleticism
and stamina”
“they wouldn’t give two f-cks
if i was broke
busted and disgusted
cause all they’re looking for me to do
is a reverse layup
and three point shot at the buzzer”
“but what do i know?”
“i’m just a simple black man in the
united states of america
who was pulled over and har-ssed
because i’m suspected of having
marijuana and drugs in the back
of my altima”
“even though i don’t match
the description of the suspect they’re after
but it seems as if nowadays good and evil
seems to be based off skin color”
“we’re all painted and drawn as wild
and vicious animals
and that’s why we’re shot on site
every time they get the chance to…”
“i’m just a black man in the
united states of america
who has to pray the lord his soul
to keep every time he sets foot
outside if his area”
“i ain’t no donald glover
but i sure am childish
cause i
call out and ridicule all
these so called activists
that post pro-black propaganda
on their statuses
but won’t do anything else
to make sure that our kids are raised
in a matter that will
ensure
their prosperity…”
“i’m just a black man in the
united states of america
whose life and freedom
depends on the white man’s
favor…”
“and i’m just another wise -ss n-i-g-g-e-r
in america
“who will probably be another victim
of the white man’s systematic
black slaughter…”
“and that’s the uh
the unspoken word…”
(painful and sorrowful singing starts)
“we all fall down
fall down…”
“we all fall down
fall down…”
