《Dead Nigga Blvd. (Pt. 1) (Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Dead Nigga Blvd.(Pt 1)-Meshell Ndegeocello

[00:00:01] You sell your soul like you sell a piece of ass

[00:00:06] Slave to the dead white leaders on paper

[00:00:09] Welfare cases rapists and hoes

[00:00:11] All reinforced by your TV show

[00:00:14] Exotic and beautiful videos

[00:00:17] Yeah a jail's a sanctuary for the walking dead

[00:00:19] F**ks with your head when every black leader ends up dead

[00:00:22] Somebody said Our greatest destiny is to become white

[00:00:24] But white is not pure and hate is not pride

[00:00:27] Just 'cause civil rights is law doesn't mean that we all abide

[00:00:30] Tell me are you free Campaign for every dead nigga boulevard

[00:00:33] So y'all young motherf**kers can drive down it in your fancy cars

[00:00:39] Free try to hold on to some Africa of the past

[00:00:42] One must remember it's other Africans that helped enslave your ass

[00:00:45] Everybody's just trying to make that dollar

[00:00:49] Remember what Jesse used to say I am somebody

[00:00:54] No longer do I blame others for the way that we be

[00:00:56] 'Cause niggas need to redefine what it means to be free

[00:01:01] I can't even tell my brothers and sisters that they're fine

[00:01:05] This absence of beauty in their heart and mind

[00:01:07] Stopped breastfeeding the child you put 'em on the cow

[00:01:12] And now you wonder why they act wild

[00:01:15] You see brown folks are the keepers of the earth

[00:01:19] Unifiers of the soul and mind

[00:01:21] Not these wannabe gaudy pimps and thugs

[00:01:23] Wearing diamond watches from African slave mines

[00:01:24] Perhaps to be free is to all love those who hate me

[00:01:27] And die a beautiful death and make pretty brown babies

[00:01:29] Campaign for every dead nigga boulevard

[00:01:31] So y'all young motherf**kers can drive down it in your fancy cars

[00:01:37] Try to hold on to some Africa of the past

[00:01:40] One must remember it's other Africans that helped enslave your ass

[00:01:43] Everybody's trying to make that dollar

[00:01:47] Remember what Jesse used to say I am somebody

[00:01:51] No longer do I blame others for the way that we be

[00:01:55] Niggas need to redefine what it means to be free

[00:01:59] Campaign for every dead nigga boulevard

[00:02:00] So y'all young motherf**kers can drive down it in your fancy cars

[00:02:05] Try to hold on to some Africa of the past

[00:02:09] One must remember it's other Africans that helped enslave your ass

[00:02:13] Everybody's trying to make that dollar

[00:02:16] Remember what Jesse used to say I am somebody

[00:02:20] No longer do I blame white folks for the way that we be

[00:02:24] Niggas need to redefine what it means to be free

[00:02:38] Understand young folks

[00:02:39] When you put property rights ahead of human rights

[00:02:41] Understand you're tampering with nature

[00:02:47] That's right you see property rights is controlled by man

[00:02:52] And human rights is controlled by nature
