G
I've been taught to respect
my elders and behave
Even if when they were
young they sold slaves
Truth and understandin' is what I crave
Verse 2
In the land of the thief home of the slave
G
Turn your page to a brief
demonstration
'Cause now in '90 it's strictly
information I'm givin'
Teachin' on a regular basis
Verse 3
Today's lecture is about The Racist
G
We're not out to exaggerate
or diss him
But show the symptoms and
facts of racism
Understand The Racist ain't equal
There's about five different
Verse 4
types of racist people

First of the five different types of cases
Is the individual brought up racist
Here you have young men and women
Brought up in the Great
C
White Way opinion
Verse 5

This opinion introduced by the parent
To the civilized becomes
transparent
The civilized man could look
through the faces
Make the analysis and see
Verse 6

G
Damn, that's like a rock
in a hard place
You don't have your land yet

America was built by every other race
Except the European that runs
this place
