Stop Racism

[Tony D] Style within yes, there is no goal too grim I teach the way yo, to match the color of my skin So get it right y'all, my family had to organize Comin over on a boat you see they had to realize That they were one yes, in a nation of so many Nationalities of people, knowledge we had plenty As an equal, but still some considered us an outcast Names like guinea and wop, is what was used in the past To describe us nonetheless we kept our head up Knowin in the future we shall all drink from the same cup Unity is what I'm strivin for G, so let it be Ebony and ivory in our community in harmony Livin, perfectly together as a whole From the bottom of South Africa to the North Pole When I look at a human you can say I'm color blind Cause I see them with my eyes but I judge them with my mind Stop racism [Tony D] Hardheaded individuals say media blow up Is the cause of all racism, it's mentally throw up So grow up and learn that the problem exists Like Markie said, we gotta unball our fists And put away the bats and throw away the knives And get rid of the guns, that can hurt the lives Of our children, you see I pray for the future It was once quoted, to let knowledge uproot ya To build as one, and elevate and keep climbin Stop racism, the cause that I'm rhymin I can't wait for the twenty-first century It's gotta happen now, cause that's the way it's meant to be But you say how, can we do this you gotta put your mind to it And know like Bo and just run right through it My conclusion to the topic will be racism MUST end Apartheid you're THROUGH with the message I send Stop racism [Tony D] There's a handful of people I'm unable to reach It's like tryin to find a certain grain of sand on the beach A few friends of mine said it's a worthless cause Like Run-D.M.C., it'll only "Pause" And keep goin, some people will remain prejudiced It's my job to make 'em see through the fog in their midst Would it suffice this is the church, and this is the steeple There's many religions, but there's only two people That's man and woman, and woman and man And if I can I'ma make 'em understand That twenty years after Martin Luther King It's still the same 'ol thing We fed the world, and saved the farms We even greeted the homeless with open arms But when it comes to racism and apartheid The people run away and try to hide That's not the answer, the problem can be solved by you I'm doin mine, now what you gonna do? Stop racism [Tony D] Yo, the message I send is racism MUST end Not only in South Africa but here in the U.S And everywhere else in the country in the world On the planet for that matter y'knahmsayin? Blacks and whites, reds, greens, yellows, oranges Everybody must live, AS ONE, as man is supposed to be And from Tony D, I'm outta here, harmony for the 90's
