เพลง So Misinformed (Single Version)

I would like to say to this gentleman

And all other people who are not blessed with melanin

At this point in time to understand that

What has happened in our history is that

You have been misinformed as much as we have been misinformed.

Much of the information that is brought forth,

Not only from Doctor Mohammed, but other areas,

Other scholars, are not available to you as a sister said

In your curriculum that you've had for 400 years

When you did not allow us to read and write, it was being hidden.

Whether you, sir, personally did that or not,

It was a legacy that was passed onto you.

And I end by saying the Holocaust

Is simply the greatest atrocity on film.

Ours was not filmed.

(Get up, stand up) No apology, equality

(Stand up for your rights) Youth is future, lets move forward

(Get up, stand up) Healthy mentality helps sanity

(Stand up for your rights) Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

(Get up, stand up) Facts half backwards and inaccurate

(Stand up for your rights) Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

(Get up, stand up) Good over evil, deceitful

(Don't give up the fight) Morals, principles, it's simple, son

What will it take for my peoples to connect together?

You know it's black excellence if we compete together

Picture a photograph of black folks lit together

In high definition, in high, I would never

Turn my back on the block, I got the block on my back

Like James Brown, boy, I'm proud to be black

To all my sisters, Mother Earth has birthed us

Lurchers, it hurts us first, less heard this

To all my sisters, ain't no knockin' you back

Politicans politickin' with a gown and a cap

The house got flavor and I like it like that

Black girl power, yeah, I'm rockin' with that

Doors is gettin' kicked down, statues is gettin' ripped down

Presidents meetin' overseas just to have a sitdown

They tryna keep us from runnin' up

I never tell you to get down, it's all about comin' up

(Get up, stand up) No apology, equality

(Stand up for your rights) Youth is future, lets move forward

(Get up, stand up) Healthy mentality helps sanity

(Stand up for your rights) Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

(Get up, stand up) Facts half backwards and inaccurate

(Stand up for your rights) Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

(Get up, stand up) Good over evil, deceitful

(Don't give up the fight)

Morals, principles, it's simple, son (Son)

So what are you saying?

The foundation was laid, y'all nation was made

Off our ancestors' back, back, back in the day

Four hundred years ago, y'all made us slaves

And you can hear it in the spirit comin' deep from the graves

Life is a maze

Smoke so much **** you in a daze

But you ain't trippin', you gettin' paid

Who do you praise? But anyways

I read a history book, but I ain't learned nothin', dawg

So I read the Bible, then the holy Quran

Went to Jamaica to acquire my knowledge

Sat with some Rastas 'til my game got polished

The gangbang extreme with malice

Trees and degrees like I'm trained for college

They tryna keep us from runnin' up

I never tell you to get down, it's all about comin' up

(Get up, stand up) No apology, equality

(Stand up for your rights) Youth is future, lets move forward

(Get up, stand up) Healthy mentality helps sanity

(Stand up for your rights) Melting Pot, help us up, vote or not

(Get up, stand up) Facts half backwards and inaccurate

(Stand up for your rights) Tell folks no backin' up, track it up

(Get up, stand up) Good over evil, deceitful

(Don't give up the fight) Morals, principles, it's simple, son

(Get up, stand up) No apology, equality

(Stand up for your rights) Youth is future, lets move forward

(Get up, stand up) Healthy mentality helps sanity
