Boogie Down Productions - Blackman's In Effect lyrics

Your rating:

Take the pillow from your head and put a book in it.
 It's time for the massive BDP crew at the top of the pile.
 Yo. In the morning I'm yawning  at noon is when I wake up
 Make up my bed break up the bread and said
 Scratching my head  why am I so damn intimidating?
 Is it because of laws designed to keep us waiting and waiting
 Thus hating all forms of a setback
 Get back  if you can't understand a rap act.
 This is the language of the people ready to hear the crew
 I've got no juice, 'cause I'm not getting juiced
 To have juice means you kiss and lick a lot of booty
 To have respect means you simply new or newly
 Heard what I had to say and felt as though you'd say that too
 I'm not down with a juice-crew
 But anyway I say today the message I create is great
 I don't preach hate, I simply get the record straight
 It's not the fault of the black race that we are misplaced
 We're robbin' and killin', your own medicine you taste
 You built up a race on the concept of violence
 Now in '90 you want silence
 Well, I want science, not silence but science
 Scientific fact about black
 The board of education acts as if it's only reality
 Is talking 'bout a Tom, Dick and Harry
 So now you learn your black history is questions and answers
 Every question but the Black Panthers
 Timbuctoo existed when the caveman existed
 Why then isn't this listed
 Is this because the blackman is the original man
 Or does it mean humanity is African
 I don't know, but these sciences are hidden
 For some strange reason it's forbidden
 To talk about, or converse on a political outburst
 I don't believe that I'm the first
 Or should I say the first one, or the first one that's done
 Music like I'm still number one
 Music like that or this is the incredible uplift
 Those that oppose get dissed
 But who will oppose the teacher when society's a wreck
 So check the blackman's in effect
 Near the Tigris and Euphrates Valleys in Asia
 Lies the Garden of Eden
 Where Adam became a father to humanity
 Now don't get mad at me
 But according to facts, this seems just fantasy
 Because man, the most ancient man
 Was found thousands of years before Adam began
 And where he was found, again they can't laugh at ya
 It's right, dead, smack in Africa
 But due to religious and political power
 We must be denied the facts every hour
 We run to school, tryin' to get straight A's
 Let's take a trip way back in the days
 To the first civilization on Earth, the Egyptians
 Giving birth to science, mathematics and music
 Religion, the list goes on, you choose it
 Egypt was the land of spiritual blessing
 Egypt was the land of facts, not guessing
 People from all over the world had come
 To learn from Egypt, Egypt number one
 So people that believe in Greek philosophy
 Know your facts, Egypt was the monopoly
 Greeks had learned from Egyptian masters
 You might say "Prove it", well here's the answers
 640 to 322 b.C. originates Greek philosophy
 But in that era Greece was at war
 With themselves and Persia, what's more
 Any philosopher at that time was a criminal
 He'd be killed very simple
 This indicates that Greece had no respect
 For science or intellect
 So how the hell you created philosophy
 When you kill philosophers constantly
 The point is that we descend from kings
 Science, art and beautiful things
 African history is the worlds history
 This is the missing link and mystery
 Once we realise they all are African
 White will sit down with black and laugh again
 So judge not least ye might be judged
 By the judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged
 Matthew seven, first verse doesn't budge
 No man should walk the Earth and sludgez
 if you don't believe, you can go and check
 To see how and where the blackman's in effect
