I'm hopin' to open a closed mind To open the eyes of those blind Going through life you find Without trying on the shoes of who you despisin' Whose views do you choose and who's lyin'? Who stands behind hidin' in the dark? Who is strikin' the spark, trying to shine some light to warm a cold heart? It always seems too hard, but you're never too old to start So do your part and just. be. smart The only thing I hate is a hater Not of the player, but of the white rhyme sayer Or any hate based on factors like race I got no control over my genetic traits But they hate me all the same, ignorance is to blame But I won't let that manifest, I'm unaffected, I have no shame Know what I'm saying?, It's all love, you have no reason to hate me So give it up and just admit you can't fade me If you got a problem with a suburban white kid spittin' raps Keepin' it real, then chill, 'cause that's the haps That's happening right now, and if you're askin' yourself how Slap yourself in the mouth and realize what rap is all about The skill, the talent, you have it or you have not Can't you see I was blessed, so the rest of this nonsense needs to stop The rest of this nonsense needs to stop Hiphop is hopin' to open a closed mind To open the eyes of those blind Going through life you find Without trying on the shoes of who you despisin' Whose views do you choose and who's lyin'? Who stands behind hidin' in the dark? Who is strikin' the spark, trying to shine some light to warm a cold heart? It always seems too hard, but you're never too old to start So do your part and just. be. smart They call me white devil, whip cracker Even though I'm not evil, after four hundred years, you see doesn't matter They hate me anyway, regardless Even though I give 'em respect, they blame me for their hardships I'm only eighteen years old Understand I'm not responsible for dealing the cards that I hold And I got feelings, too If I alone could stop all the abuse, I would, and that's true I see you don't know your history, your past, your culture I can't trace my Polish relatives past Hitler Yet I'm German, Swedish, Norwegian, and Italian also If you're simply African, your ancestors are lost, so On your own maybe you could change that Start with your name, switch it back, of course you won't be exact But, what it is a name anyway? The important fact is that you're black and that you're here to stay, not as a slave Oh yeah, we're still slaves psychologically with mental chains But give me time and you will see, even that will change Life isn't fair, but we've all felt pain Read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair, you'll see what I'm saying You don't have to be black to be poor and oppressed Just like there are rich black people profiting off of the rest Selling drugs, violence and sex, the music industry Feeding their own people track-by-track misery This isn't the first time they've done it before How do you think we got Africans off of their own shores? We might have caught them all individually But we bought them from tribal wars in captivity Prisoners to their own people indigenously Traditionally, I suppose, they were set free eventually It doesn't matter now, I couldn't prevent it, see But we can end it now, if we could together be Forever in peace, at least not separated by color If you could trace it back, father, you'd see we are brothers Whether you like it or not Black or white, we both bleed, this red-on-red bloodshed needs to stop I think we've reached the top, of all cultures in society With hiphop, united, undivided, in harmony United, undivided, in harmony. Hiphop My goal is to open a closed mind To open the eyes of those blind Going through life you find Without trying on the shoes of who you despisin' Whose views do you choose and who's lyin'? Who stands behind hidin' in the dark? Who is strikin' the spark, trying to shine some light to warm a cold heart? It always seems too hard, but you're never too old to start So do your part and just. be. smart See, you can hate me and even kill me But your fear will never instill in me I overstand my people abused yours But I'm not evil and I didn't write these laws I'm not racist and stereotypes are unfair Division creates conflict, so now you know to beware If it were up to me, it wouldn't be like this But some of y'all still hate me despite all this Fighting fire with fire only burns more You fulfill your enemy's desire and show concern for That same hate and become it So call all white folk devils and you're not far from it To that you got no lame comebacks or wisecracks For me to combat and you better realize that Cause you may get sidetracked from the real meaning of this hiphop Which is not for the money, rather for the hungry to get fed And for the empty to fill they head, and not to be misled Which is why this must be said To clarify the fact that all souls are equal God lives in all, not only black, that belief is feeble Spiritually, we all have the same chance in this world You could be rich or poor, boy or girl Everyone's different and it's time for us to get ready For redemption's remedy I'm hoping to open a closed mind To open the eyes of those blind Open your eye and see what you find Don't be blind
