《Word to the Mother(land)(45 Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Word To The Mother - Big Daddy Kane

[00:00:01] Grab a hold of yourself

[00:00:03] Open your eyes

[00:00:04] Get wise to the exercise

[00:00:06] Being taught by the teacher

[00:00:08] That's most dominant

[00:00:09] You need knowledge

[00:00:10] Well I'm dropping it

[00:00:11] Listen to the rap allow it to trap

[00:00:13] Your body and soul so that you can adapt

[00:00:16] To the man on display as I take you away

[00:00:18] So may I

[00:00:21] Proud to be a black man

[00:00:23] Coming exact and

[00:00:23] Giving up to brothers five

[00:00:25] On the back hand

[00:00:26] Pray for lease and peace upon each other

[00:00:28] With my sisters and brothers

[00:00:31] I say the mother

[00:00:32] As in the motherland

[00:00:34] But on the other hand

[00:00:35] Another man

[00:00:36] Tackled and shackled our ancestors

[00:00:38] But we beat him with freedom

[00:00:40] So let's bless the

[00:00:41] Country that we all came from

[00:00:43] Because the moral of it all

[00:00:44] Is we shall overcome

[00:00:46] The cream will keep rising

[00:00:47] We be sizing

[00:00:48] Up the asiatic one is enterprising

[00:00:51] Building and building to carry on

[00:00:53] All the way from malcolm

[00:00:54] X to farrakhan

[00:00:55] Martin luther was a tutor

[00:00:57] Many were pupils

[00:00:58] Those who fell victim were

[00:00:59] Those without scruples

[00:01:01] However to sever

[00:01:02] We could never

[00:01:03] So hold up the peace sign

[00:01:04] And stand together

[00:01:05] Take heed to the words that I man ifest

[00:01:07] And when I'm through speaking

[00:01:09] Marley marl'll do the rest

[00:01:46] Yo big daddy what you gonna say now please
