WOLVES [Note: ilmwear says it’s not just White Imperialism, it’s any Imperialism - Arabs, whoever! ] I'm not a hunter, but I am told That in places like in the arctic, Where indigenous people sometimes might hunt a wolf, They’ll take a double edged blade, And they'll put blood on the blade, And they'll melt the ice and stick the handle in the ice, So that only the blade is protruding, And that a wolf will smell the blood and wants to eat, And it will come and lick the blade trying to eat, And what happens is when the wolf licks the blade, Of course, he cuts his tongue, and he bleeds, And he thinks he's really having a good thing, And he drinks and he licks and he licks, And of course he is drinking his own blood and he kills himself,. That's what the Imperialists did with us with crack cocaine, You have these young brothers out there who think they are getting something They gonna make a living with, They is getting something they can buy a car, Like the white people have cars, why can't I have a car? They getting something they can get a piece of gold, White people have gold, why can't I have gold? They getting something to get a house, White people have a house, why can't I have a house? And they actually think that there’s something that’s bringing resources to them, But they're killing themselves just like the wolf was licking the blade, And they're slowly dying without knowing it. That’s what’s happening to the community, you with me on that? That’s exactly, precisely what happens to the community, And instead of blaming the hunter who put the damn handle and blade in the ice for the wolf, That what happens is the wolf gets the blame, gets the blame for trying to live, That’s what happens in our community, You don't blame the person, the victim, You blame the oppressor, Imperialism, white power is the enemy, Was the enemy when it first came to Africa, And snatched up the first African brothers here against our will, isss the enemy today, And that's the thing that we have to understand. ANIMAL IN MAN Once upon a time If it was up to humans Therefore the only course left was revolution which was understandable And since the pigs promised to lead in the interest of all the animals They planned a full attack Under the leadership of Hannibal The fattest pig in the pack The next morning on the farm Everything was calm Just before dawn But before long The sun got so hot it made the farm seem electric Now check it This is when that (*bleep*) got hectic Directed by Hannibal, the animals attacked Old Sam was in a state of shock And fell up on his back And dropped his rifle Reaching in vain Each and every creature from the field at his throat Screaming kill, feel the pain. This is the animal in man This is the animal in you This is the animal in man Coming true After they ran the farmer off the farm The pigs went around and called a meeting in the barn Hannibal spoke for several hours But when talks about his plans for power That’s when the conversation turned sour He issued an official ordinance to set If not a pig from this day forth then you insubordinate That’s when the horses went buckwild One of them shouted out You fraudulent pigs, we know your (*bleep*)-in’ style! Hannibal’s face was flushed and pale All the animals eyes full of disgust and betrayal He felt the same way Sam felt They took his tongue out of his mouth And cut his body up for sale, for real You better listen while you can Its a very thin line between animal and man When Hannibal crossed the line they all took a stand What would have done? Shook his hand? This is the animal in man |
