Yeah Yeah Check this out: now I'm black But black people trip 'Cause white people like me White people like me But don't like them What's the f*ck up Are you my friend? Hell no, you're a racist You say you got one black friend, so you're in Sorry homie, no win Check the facts Mexicans are still gettin' pushed to the back Puerto-Ricans gettin' dissed the same Won't speak on the Indians, shit's insane F*ck John Wayne I don't hate whites I just got a death wish for muthafuckas that ain't right You got black skin Still you gotta show and prove, friend Back to the facts What about Australia? A fuckin' failure The Aboriginal people are black So they got jacked You ask me about free speech and the Riots? So what's in store? I'm talkin' bout a race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Race war People gettin' killed in the street Blood on your feet, the ends don't meet And who they gonna blame it on, me? Try the media Try the PD Try your TV Try your quest for wealth Anybody but yourself But once the bullets start flyin' People start dyin' It's all because we're lyin' History books that teach hate A kid has no escape From the racist fate And pretty soon South Africa Will stop chillin' And start killin' Race war Race war Race war Race war Race war Race war Race war Race war Every night I pray That people get this shit together one day But this country ain't with it America was founded on that racist shit I judge the devil by his deeds It's usually connected to the size of his greed And keep the hope Even though they'd love to give a nigga like me the rope And when this shit hits There's gonna be a lotta white kids rollin' with the Africans You can't sweat skin 'Cause there be a lot of blacks is down with the Republicans This shit don't have to happen That's why a brother like me's still rappin' Just treat each other right Either that, or you're lookin' for a sure fight F*ck the police We already know they ain't about no fuckin' peace You want to know what I think's in store? Justice or a race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) Race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Korean people live down in the hood A little mis-fuckin'-understood Orientals were slaves too Word to this fuckin' red white and blue People from Iran ain't never did shit to us So why the distrust? The system want to keep us at each other's throats While we're payin' the tax notes 'Cause bein' black ain't no fuckin' minority It's the fuckin' majority So they gotta make us hate each other Word, check the brothers Mexicans black Jamaicans black Iranians black Indians black Hawaiians black Puerto-Ricans black Eskimos black South-Americans black Orientals black Yeah, that's right The Klan says everything's black that ain't white So we gotta get our facts straight 'Cause the shit they teach in school is pure hate Sometimes I don't know for sure If somebody want a race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) Race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Race war (Get yourself together) (Open your eyes Get wise) (Put your brain in gear) Who wants a race war? We're gonna lose
