Queen Latifah - Evil That Men Do lyrics

Your rating:

[Queen Latifah]
 You asked  I came  so behold the Queen
 Let's add a little sense to the scene
 I'm living positive  not out here knocked up
 But the lines are so dangerous  I ought to be locked up
 This rhyme doesn't require prime time
 I'm just sharing thoughts of mine
 Back again cause I knew you wanted it
 From the Latifah with the Queen in front of it
 Dropping bombs  you're up in arms, you're puzzled
 The lines will flow like fluid while you're guzzling
 The sip I drop you on a BDP-produced track
 From KRS to be exact
 It's a Flavor Unit quest that today has me speaking
 Cause it's knowledge I'm seeking
 Enough about myself, I think it's time that I tell you
 About the evil that men do

 Situations, reality, what a concept!
 Nothing ever seems to stay in step
 So today, here is a message to my sisters and brothers
 Here are some things I want to cover
 A woman strives for a better life, but who the hell cares?
 Because she's living on welfare
 I government can't come up with a decent housing plan
 So she's in no man's land
 It's a sucker who tells you you're equal

 [KRS-One]
 You don't need him, Johannasburg's crying for freedom!

 [Queen Latifah]
 We the people hold these truths to be self-evident

 [KRS-One]
 But there's no response from the president

 [Queen Latifah]
 Someone's living the good life, tax-free
 Except for a girl, can't find a way to be crack free
 And that's just part of the message
 I thought I had to send you about the evil that men do

 Tell me, don't you think it's a shame?
 When someone can put a quarter in a video game
 But when a homeless person approaches you on the street
 You can't treat him the same
 It's time to teach the def, the dumb, the blind
 That black-on-black crime only shackles and binds
 You to a doom, a fate worse than death
 But there's still time left
 Stop putting your conscience on cease
 And bring about some type of peace
 Not only in your heart, but also in your mind
 It will benefit all mandkind
 Then there will be one thing that will never stop
 And it's the evil that men do
