- Brand Nubian Love Vs. Hate 歌詞
- Brand Nubian
- Uh
Now its love vs hate
Time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its our people that were thinking of
Now they say we playa hating cause we hate the black on black
And the fact we cant stand when we act like that
Self hate killing us more than the po po or crack
I tell my peoples with the gats it aint about all that
We arrived on slave ships tortured chained and whipped
Four hundred years of being slaves in the land of the brave
Have we forgotten our ancestors forced to pick cotton
Women raped and tortured murdered if they caught ya
Niggaz swung from trees like a breeze do summer leaves
Swaying back and forth failed attempts to make it north
Millions of people died just so that we can survive
So this knowledge I provide cause these facts cant be denied
Nowadays its new ways sixties it was the smack
Eighties it was the crack nineties it be the gat
Time to recognize how uncivilized we got
Get wise and unify and not fall victim to the plot
Cause its love vs hate
Time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its our people that were thinking of
Its love vs hate
Its time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its our people that we thinking of
Uh when will we make our exodus when will the guns
Bust the other way instead of at the brother next to us
Thats all that they expect from us police stand by
Dont believe the lie that they're the ones protecting us
Projects to see how povertys affecting us
Robberies we lust objects of high quality
Or so we think we slowly sink into the quicksand
With no support like a bike that doesnt have a kickstand
We stay in court smoke Newports and fail to support
Our seeds with no thoughts for they needs
We fought for the cheese and all it got us was a grave
Or a bid as a slave we live in the land of the brave
Where the home isnt free grown niggaz be
In a zone trying to act out the TV
We cracked out and greedy with a lack of respect
Its time to come correct its time to come correct
Cause its love vs hate
Time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its my people that Im thinking of
Its love vs hate
Time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its our people that we thinking of
Sally been getting beat for years
Husband come home high off of weed and beers
He frustrated cause his job is low rate
Low money plus his wife brother act kinda funny
My nosey neighbor always making it her labor
To cause controversy I seen them out in jersey
The teacher say my son show aggression
I tell her its in our lesson for him to know himself
To me the greatest wealth is the best of health
When the music stops Ill play the role like my pops
And his pops and so on I got a legacy to go on
Ill watch out for my babies and Ill kill for em
And if they wanna receive the knowledge
Then Ill build for em
Now if its love vs hate then whats your fate
What we showing with the money we blown
Shit is still chaos aint a damn thing sewn
Cause its love vs hate
Time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its our people that we thinking of
Its love vs hate
Time for my people to eliminate
That hate lets love
Because its our people that we thinking of
