2pac - Words Of Wisdom lyrics

Killing us one by one

In one way or another

American will find a way to eliminate the problem

One by one

The problem is

the troubles in the black youth of the ghettos

And one by one

we are being wiped off the face of this earth

At an extremly alarming rate

And even more alarming is the fact

that we are not fighting back

Brothers, sistas, niggas

When I say niggas it is not the nigga we are grown to fear

It is not the nigga we say as if it has no meaning

But to me

It means Never Ignorant Getting Goals Acomplishes, nigga

Niggas what are we going to do

Walk blind into a line or fight

Fight and die if we must like niggas

This is for the masses the lower classes

The ones you left out, jobs were givin', better livin'

But we were kept out

Made to feel inferior, but we're the superior

Break the chains in out brains that made us fear yah

Pledge a legiance to a flag that neglects us

Honour a man that who refuses to respect us

Emmancipation, proclamation, Please!

Nigga just said that to save the nation

These are lies that we all accepted

Say no to drugs but the governments' keep it

Running through our community, killing the unity

The war on drugs is a war on you and me

And yet they say this is the Home of The Free

But if you ask me its all about hyprocracy

The constitution, Yo, it don't apply to me

Lady Liberty still the bitch lied to me

Steady strong nobody's gonna like what I pumpin'

But its wrong to keeping someone from learning something

So get up, its time to start nation building

I'm fed up, we gotta start teaching childern

That they can be all that they wanna to be

There's much more to life than just poverty

This is defaintly ahhh words of wisdom

AMERIKA, AMERIKA, AMERIKKKA

I charge you with the crime of rape, murder, and assault

For suppressing and punishing my people

I charge you with robery for robbing me of my history

I charge you with false imprisonment for keeping me

Trapped in the projects

And the jury finds you guilty on all accounts

And you are to serve the consequences of your evil schemes

Prosecutor do you have any more evidience

Words of Wisdom

They shine upon the strength of an nation

Conquer the enemy on with education

Protect thy self, reach with what you wanna do

Know thy self, teach what we been through

On with the knowledge of the place, then

No one will ever oppress this race again

No Malcolm X in my history text

Why is that?

Cause he tried to educate and liberate all blacks

Why is Martin Luther King in my book each week?

He told blacks, if they get smacked, turn the other cheek

I don't get it, so many questions went through my mind

I get sweated, They act as if asking questions is a crime

But forget it, one day I'm gonna prove them wrong

Now every brother had to smother on the welfare line

The american dream, though it seems it attainable

They're pulling your sleave, don't believe

Cause it will strangle yah

Pulling the life of your brain, I can't explain

Beg as you can obtain from which you came

Swear that your mother is living in equality

Forgeting your brother that's living her apology

Thought they had us beat when they took our kids

But the battle ain't over till the black man sings

Words of Wisdom

But the battle ain't over till the black man sings

Words of Wisdom

NIGHTMARE thats what I am

America's nightmare

I am what you made me

The hate and evil that you gave me

I shine of a reminder of what you have done to my people

for Four hundred plus years

You should be scared

You should be running

You should be trying to silence me

ha ha

But you can not escape fate

Well it is my turn to come

Just as you rose you shall fall
