[Malcolm X]

"We have a common enemy.. we have this in common

We have a common oppressor, a common exploiter

and a common dis-discriminator

So once we all, realize that we have this common enemy

then we unite"



[Schoolly D]

Yeah, education of a black man, and his people

Gather round School like School was a steeple

Black minds and black rights and black fights

Supernatural black man, and my black might

Some say that rap is just madness

I say I'm glad that I had this

urge and the courage, submerge

a dope beat and super dope poem

Sit on down and get a slap in the dome

Yeah it's School, that's my name

Rap - uh-huh, that's my game

Love - for my brother

Black baby, that's my color

I'm a black man



"For the same procedure, you and I can use

to get our problem solved

That's been done - all the nations came together

They were dark nations, not for the caucausians

Some of them will do this

Some of them will look"



[Schoolly D]

Some wanna stop me, some you wanna rock me

On stage, son you like to jock me

Code Money my man you hear the freeze

[scratchin] Make em all say please

Bring the beat back, the beat back was hittin

I'm like a black man, I'm never quittin

Some say that School is absurd

Pull my pistol, make em say word

Give you speed and speed is what you need

and but I never never give you your greed

Because greed is for a devil, and not a rebel

I'm like school, I'll put you on a level

Some say you be American

But I say be a black man, baby



Education of a black man



Uh-huh, School, that's my name

Rap, uh-huh, that's my game

Love - feel for my brother

Black, that's my color baby, yeah



"These, evil genies no they didn't have nuclear weapons

They didn't have jet planes

They didn't have all of the power of Parliament

that the white man has

But they had ?

They were able to submerge ?

and agree on one thing.."
