Race Lyrics

G-G-Gimme the beat now! 
(Face the music) {repeat sample in song} 
Lead line 


If the air's a little thick in this room 2night 
I reckon it's the result from an onslaught of separatist rookies 
Overcome by this colorful sight 
Talkin' so fast that even they 
Talkin' so fast that even they don't know what they mean 
Of all the things 2 base a rhyme 
How is it that U every time regurgitate the racist lines that keep us apart? 
Thank God this ain't Monopoly 
U'd make us all go back 2 start 


CHORUS: 
Race in the space I mark human 
Race - face the music 
We all bones when we dead 
Race in the space I mark human 
Cut me, cut U 
Both the blood is red, I gotcha! 


Race {x2} 


Check it 
Three seats over there's a lady black 
Entrusted 2 her care is a little white girl 
And the fact of the matter is 
Before her mama or another kid at school 
Tell her 'bout the fallacy that one race rules over the other 
She'd be a much-better-off-left fool 
If we never heard about the evils that those before us committed 
Then how my dear, tell me now how my dear… 
Tell me now how now would we know? 
And th-th-the band say… 


CHORUS 


Race {x2} 


Down, down with H-I-S-T-O-R-Y 
And all this BS propagandi 
Keepin' U from me and me from U as we grow 
I don't wanna know (I don't wanna know) 
Why those before us hated each other 
I'd rather believe they never did 
I'd rather believe (I'd rather, I'd rather believe) 
That there's hope 4 a kid 
And if he imitates the best 
I guess that's what I'll try 2 be 
And I'ma let the rest dissolve with my guitar underneath the sea 


Race 
Face the music {x2} 


Race in the space I mark human 
Race - face the music 
We all bones when we dead 
Race in the space I mark human 
Cut me, cut U 
Both the blood is red 
Get it? (Race) 
Got it! (Race) 


Face the music 
(Race) {repeat}
