time to wake up - mc zappa lyrics

Loading...

(read. study. look, the first thing a black man must have is respect for himself
respect his body and his mind…quit taking the white man’s poisons into his body
his cigarettes, his dope, his liquor. his white woman. his pork…)

[verse 1: mc zappa]

givin’ consciousness to the general populace
like it or not, there just isn’t no stoppin’ this

i gotta stay woke and ensure you’re still awake
props to infinite; he hooked me up wit’ a k!ller break

to help me exercise my lyrical power
and uplift my people in this critical hour

400 years we been runnin’ a treadmill; standin’ dead still
so now i gotta give you the red pill

forget all the drugs and alcohol they sellin’ you
yo, why the h*ll you think they call it the “devil’s brew”?

listen, i’m tellin’ you it’s nothin’ short of suicide
but black man, we can’t afford for you to die

(pork? hm
yeah, my mama used to say that, “don’t eat no pork”…
yeah, your mama was right. that pig is a filthy beast. part rat, part cat, and the rest is dog
all right, pull my coat on that, now. what happen if you give all of that up?)
[verse 2: mc zappa]

yo, we don’t need no more swine or pork rinds
only beef, fish and fowl should ya fork find

‘cuz the pig is just infamous for k!llin’ us
you don’t believe me? than go read leviticus

11:7 to 8, as well as isaiah
you’ll never find no swine in my refrigerator

(i mean, the pork…
i ran this hustle. i tried to act like***
i’m tellin’ you god’s words, not no hustle
and i’m gon’ tell you…god is black
god is black?! everybody knows god is white!
everything the white man taught you, you accepted.)

[verse 3: mc zappa]

once, only whites could stay at the head of the bus
told me, tried to say they was better than us

for supremacy, but listen g, who built the pyramids?
yo, you wanna see god, than look in the mirror, kid
you can’t tell me nothin’ cuz my people invented art
the answer’s africa if you ask where did it start

word is bond, so you best believe me
don’t let shaytaan, satan or set deceive thee

(he taught you you were a black heathen, and you believed him. he taught you to worship a blond, blue*eyed jesus with white skin, and you believed him. he taught you that black was a curse, and you believed that. did you ever look up the word “black” in a dictionary?)

[verse 4: mc zappa]

you wanna hide a thing? put it in a born cypher cypher king
knowledge of self is a kind of a wealth

that can be used to overcome the luciferian
devil, i discover the truths you been buryin’

i want the twelve jewels plus peace and serenity
but we can’t get that without defeatin’ the enemy; nah

(did you ever study anything that wasn’t part of some con?
what the h*ll for, man?
come with me.)

[instrumental outro]
