The Coup

The Coup - I Ain't The Nigga songtekst

Je score:

Now I shall tell a story that's filled with words
 that start with the letter N
 (DJ Pam cuts up "Fly lyrics from the bank of reality" --> Flavor Flav)
 [Boots]
 Step into the world of a nigger, figure
 to stay a little while so pack your bag up bigger
 First of all just let me introduce you seduce you
 into a frame of mind that's easy to get used to
 Nigger hasn't always meant a man with melanin
 It used to be a piece of wood that sat on the cotton gin
 Masta put it there and it wouldn't move, smooth
 So what does it mean, to be a Nigger With an Attitude?
 You tell me that a nigger's crazy or lazy
 Not about the skin so, don't let it faze me
 Well you amaze me, with that ignorant bizull-shizzit
 Get a grip on the new fit
 Cause that's a lame frame of brain for the nineties
 I know the game so it don't sting, my mind sees
 So what the fuck you wanna race for the trigger
 I ain't the one, I ain't the nigga
 "If I'm a slave, I'm a slave to the rhythm" --> Big Daddy Kane
 "You know that I ain't the nigga" --> Ice Cube
 (repeat 4X)
 (DJ Pam cuts up "Niggers, love everything but themselves" --> Last
 Poets)
 [E-Roc]
 Nigger is a word we use today, you say
 It don't mean the same if you spell it with an A
 But that's an argument that makes me itch, I twitch
 If I took the T out will I still mean bitch?
 My name is E-Roc, and I ain't the nigger main
 Save your sellout strut shit for Soul Train
 Cause I've been known, to knock a motherfucker out
 Without a doubt, The Coup gives me much clout
 But there's a factor when I know that my skin is brown
 And never ever will I put another brother down (gawwwd damn)
 So I make the mental rule to massacre the word
 Cause when I hear it, it gets, me straight stirred
 It's mental trash so I'm pickin up the litter
 I ain't the one and I ain't, the nigger
 My people use this word each and every day
 You see a nigger, slap a nigger, that's what I say
 "If I'm a slave, I'm a slave to the rhythm" --> Big Daddy Kane
 "You know that I ain't the nigga" --> Ice Cube
 (repeat 4X)
 (DJ Pam cuts up "Niggers, love everything but themselves" --> Last
 Poets)
 "Boy I love playing the drums, I can do the grooviest rhythms
 I can do rhythms like.."
 [Boots]
 My attitude is this (what?) don't call yourself a niggerole (why?)
 Unless you're just an oakie-doke it'll make you sicker though
 Cause it's all about a mind-time mind-frame
 The system is a chess game with, pawns all the same (haa haa)
 Until we change our mind to ?
 Identify yourself, it's a part of being concious (yeah)
 If I call myself a gangster then I'll rob you with a gat (yeah)
 If I call myself a brother then you know I got your back (yeah)
 If I call myself oppressed then I'm clear on where I'm at
 But if I call myself a nigger what the fuck is that? (yeah, you know)
 Don't be the coolie or the moolie or a boob with the jigger
 Don't be the one... don't be the nigga
 "If I'm a slave, I'm a slave to the rhythm" --> Big Daddy Kane
 "You know that I ain't the nigga" --> Ice Cube
 (repeat 4X
