Tekst piosenki
(Why are you an alien?) (Verse 1-3: J. Sumbi) Because I'm treated like a Klingon I get stabbed in the back as I'm beat on By these non-natives, they call me a trespasser I was first on the planet but now I'm last On the polls of progress Check the latest figures The average Black, nothing but a house nigger In a permanent underclass - yes the lowest One paycheck away from being the homeless Kept like a pet, don't bite that white hand that feeds you That's exactly what I'm gonna do Straight going for self like a pitbull Cause I'm so fed up, my stomach is full of these Lies, stereotypes keep us weak We're taught how to look, how to act and even speak By another man, or should I say a true preacher The devil in uniform, he's posing as teacher But let's not talk about him, let's talk about us Cause they won't change so we just must Take a look around, we're programmed to keep on failin' In their eyes, we're the legal aliens (Once you understand something, usually you must act upon it) (X4) What about the ways we alienate each other? Using the term but rarely do we act as brothers Cause brothers are down for each other through all types of grit Even 400 years on the wrong continent Speakin' through a bastard language I came to express to you my mental anguish Brothers never actin' in accord with the times It's not just Black on Black crime But Black on Black racism, Black on Black on jealousness A Black on another Black's back so he can benefit One's in a mansion while his cousin's in the street We all have rhythm so why are we all off beat? Trying to compete to get the light man's affections He only wants to see us in his correction facilities And take advantage of our abilities I'm speaking so the next man can see How the world turns and why society wants to do us in Cause I'm a legal alien (Once you understand something, usually you must act upon it) (X4) I call us legal cause we're allowed to be here Just as long as we give these laws of the land programmed To a slant towards light man, specifically the white man And everywhere you look the Blacks are labelled as crooks When we're actually objects that got took A little fact that's never enough mention Inside any type of school system But the negative is pumped like a curse Until the Black situation only gets worse Cause being ignorant of self, just leads to failure There's so many facts they don't tell 'ya You can't always believe what you read, hear and see When its benefit is not for you or me But for them with the power in the light skin All in all it's a system of racism And that's what outsiders don't wanna see They thinkin' Blacks should shut up and be happy In a land where opportunities come in mobs Yet we seem to be locked out of decent jobs Why? - because of indecent education False facts will never raise the nubian nation Until we realize all of these troubles, we're locked in With title of legal aliens (Can you feel it?) (X15) (Can you feel it? Nothin' can save 'ya)
