Black Sheep - Black With N.V. (No Vision) lyrics

Your rating:

[Verse 1]

Now, I was told to never bite off more then I could chew

But then you better bite enough for if you don't, my boy, you're blue

Now I wonder, can others see the system that I see

Or do they see and say they blame it on society?

The days of smart enough come to over, just say thousands

And as I live and learn because there's always someone mouthing

Speaking on an issue, praise you or they diss you

Lawnge as strong, they fly by me like Scott tissue

My people, from nigger to negro to man or color,

killed my father and my brother so that you could rape my mother

Now you wonder, why is it through instinct you fear

Wouldn't dare me to stare, one for yourself, you're out of here

Not to worry, to harm your intention of my creed

But to stop your greed and give me what I need

Opportunity, for a life of me

And generations to come with in tranquility

Now harmony, is a total love of things

For those who are inclined or better yet like to sing

But piece of mind it is my right for the spark will ignite

'Till I can catch a cab at the town at midnight

'Till I can be myself and not be thought as worse

'Till I can buy a slice from Howard Beach to the Hearse

'Till I can get the pill without fear of eject

And occupations which I seek I can have if I select

Now if I so select and reach out to make touch

How can you say that I ask for too much?



[Chorus]

Don't speak to me if good times are granted 'till I be

Don't tell me of the countries or the hours that you seek

Don't tell me to keep trying, you know I won't agree

Double negative means positively black with N.V.



[Verse 2]

As a player of the game, of the lifetime game I am playing

I bet you're nodding, shake your head to what I am saying

It's keep then but those of men color of skin could even begin to wonder

What is it to ponder to let another bother

Listen, stay open not dismissing

Lack of vision makes division product no ambition

Wishes which you wish upon which for more you wishes

If I wish not to record steady now then I wash dishes

Wish while I wash, the water hot gets colder

Black I'm saying that in fact the dish gets clean and I get older

Seemly so, the dishes will grow to dishes far beyond me

Lost my wish and broke a dish so now I'm wishy washy

Understand foundation, create my own creation

If dumb and pumping jump, then get no ovation

But only restriction, boom penes a lot of friction

I then wash a dish with out pay. Boom! N.W.A

Think I'm lying? Black I'm crying, so the tear would turn to crystal

Crystals forming on my dishes so I wash until dismissal

Wash until my prints are wrinkled then they let me go

I know not where I'm going so I know not where I go

My people give me money, but the money much too low

For me to meet the match of present day so I still need some dough

Conjure up a suit, I wish that it were cute

Borrow a token and a smoking I begin a wish less hope

Intervening, application leads me on onto frustration

And duration of my time is spent with lack of occupation

Time to go for what I know. I know not of what I wish

but of soap and a towel and some water and a dish



[Chorus]



[Verse 3]

But lay o.k. 'cause you can get the play

I pick your style, your smile shown bright about a mile away

But anyway, another day, in the land of shove

Just living in the life of who?

A black man on a green land with a blue skyline

Don't tell me I'm color blind

I'm seeing system is hard to believe in

Underneath the underside I'm underachieving

Bust my ass in school, to be a certified fool

Now intellect of curb is my only tool

But street game is so uncouth

I took the SAT's and that's the sad-ass truth

I'm not gliding but I'm striving hanging on by a thread and it's called surviving

Hang on, hang on, hang you'all

Walk the street and keep you head so tall

For time is short,  no time is bought

You're only in the wrong if you get caught

So kick in doors, bang on walls, shout in halls

Get yours. Get yours.



[Chorus]
