[00:00.73] | Minister Malcolm, the thing that I thought |
[00:03.12] | Might be good for starting it off is to talk about |
[00:06.65] | One of the most pervasive beliefs in the general society |
[00:09.90] | About the Nation of Islam |
[00:11.44] | Talkin' to you like talkin' to myself |
[00:14.22] | 'Cause it ain't no gettin' through to you, with all I swear |
[00:17.24] | And I've been thinkin' 'bout you since I came to jail |
[00:20.07] | I've tried to reach out to you, but it was to no avail |
[00:22.71] | Guess it ain't nothin' else to do when we outgrew each other |
[00:25.39] | We hard down beefin' like we never knew each other |
[00:28.27] | Top off the coupe, no bikini, we came out life now |
[00:31.01] | I'm sippin' Bellini, livin' that lifestyle |
[00:34.01] | And that is that it is an organization |
[00:36.31] | Dedicated to the use of violent means to attain its goals |
[00:41.18] | The question I have is, |
[00:43.75] | How true is this, |
[00:46.48] | And why do you think it persists in society? |
[00:50.58] | Poppin' pills, poppin' pistols, I put my mic down |
[00:53.54] | I almost lost my life that night, I was on a bloodhound |
[00:56.41] | They tryna tell us put the bikes up and the guns down |
[00:59.31] | X was tryna buy a bike and he got gunned down |
[01:02.15] | X was tryna change his life, but he got burned down |
[01:04.96] | X wasn't ridin' with no pipe so he got gunned down |
[01:07.69] | Listen, do as I say, don't do as I do |
[01:10.51] | Nine out of ten, it ain't gon' end up lookin' good for you |
[01:13.31] | Have never at any time been guilty of initiating |
[01:17.98] | Any aggressive acts of violence |
[01:19.87] | During the entire 33 years |
[01:24.00] | Or more that the honorable |
[01:26.63] | Elijah Mohammed has been teaching us. The— |
[01:30.34] | If I wasn't rich, you wouldn't be pullin' up to my funeral |
[01:33.16] | First they kissin' you, huggin' you, then they suin' you |
[01:36.00] | If it was me, it was you, I'm wonderin' what you would do |
[01:38.83] | I just pulled up on your mama, homie, she beautiful |
[01:41.68] | Yeah, gotta keep the strap, can't let you, let y'all on me |
[01:44.72] | I got married to the game, she put these racks all on me |
[01:47.40] | Now I got diamonds on my ring, look like a matrimony |
[01:50.04] | First they screamin' my name, then file a lawsuit on me |
[01:53.04] | You would hate to see me reach my full potential |
[01:56.02] | You want me robbin', poppin' Mollies, poppin' pistols |
[01:58.76] | I'm goin' to college |
[01:59.78] | 'Cause to the youngins I'm influential |
[02:01.58] | Thought it was Congress, |
[02:02.54] | They ain't know this was a Presidential |
[02:04.26] | They ain't know that I was intellectual |
[02:07.02] | You tryna change your life, but they won't let you |
[02:10.38] | I know they know I'm special, why they playin' with me? |
[02:12.87] | You talkin' jewels, |
[02:13.70] | I'm droppin' jewels, you see the difference |
[02:15.88] | Coppin' jewels for your dawgs, they don't appreciate it |
[02:18.33] | Everybody gon' say you fake when you make it |
[02:21.58] | Back of the Maybach with the tints so you don't notice me |
[02:24.06] | When the money bring the fame, you can't even roll in peace |
[02:26.95] | Guess all the pain that I went through had to be the recipe |
[02:29.62] | I stood tall through it all and brought out the best of me |
[02:32.49] | Ayo, dismiss all them charges, that ain't my destiny |
[02:35.26] | Everything I said, I stood on it, I got integrity |
[02:38.06] | G.A., I put my hood on it, I bring the checks with me |
[02:40.88] | You need security by your grave so you can rest in peace |
[02:43.88] | Tired |
[02:44.59] | Charge of violence against us actually stems |
[02:47.14] | From the guilt complex that exists in the conscious |
[02:51.40] | And subconscious minds of most white people in this country |
[02:54.84] | They know that they've been violent in their brutality |
[03:00.93] | Against negros and they feel that some day |
[03:05.62] | The negro is going to wake up |
[03:07.24] | And try and do unto as them as they have done unto |
[03:12.52] | Do unto the whites as the whites have done unto us |
