 The day begins, with a grin 
 And a prayer to excuse my sins 
 I can walk anywhere I choose 
 Cause everybody listens to the B.D.P. crew 
 We're not here for glamour or fashion 
 But here's the question I'm askin 
 Why is it young black kids taught {flashin?} 
 They're only taught how to read, write, and act 
 It's like teachin a dog to be a cat 
 You don't teach white kids to be black 
 Why is that? Is it because we're the minority? 
 Well black kids follow me 
 Genesis chapter eleven verse ten 
 Explains the geneology of Chem 
 Chem was a black man, in Africa 
 If you repeat this fact they can't laugh at ya 
 Genesis fourteen verse thirteen 
 Abraham steps on the scene 
 Being a descendent of Chem which is a fact 
 Means, Abraham too was black 
 Abraham born in the city of a black man 
 Called Nimrod grandson of Kam 
 Kam had four sons, one was named Canaan 
 Here, let me do some explaining 
 Abraham was the father of Isaac 
 Isaac was the father of Jacob 
 Jacob had twelve sons, for real 
 And these, were the children of Isreal 
 According to Genesis chapter ten 
 Egyptains descended from {Hahm,Kam} 
 Six hundred years later, my brother, read up 
 Moses was born in Egypt 
 In this era black Egyptians weren't right 
 They enslaved black Isrealites 
 Moses had to be of the black race 
 Because he spent fourty years in Pharoah's place 
 He passed as the Pharoah's grandson 
 So he had to look just like him 
 Yes my brothers and sisters take this here song 
 Yo, correct the wrong 
 The information we get today is just wack 
 But ask yourself, why is that? 
 Verse Two 
 The age of the ignorant rapper is done 
 Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone 
 The stereotype must be lost 
 That love and peace and knowledge is soft 
 Do away with that and understand one fact 
 For love, peace must attack 
 And attack real strong, stronger than war 
 To conquer it and its law 
 Mental pictures, stereotypes and fake history 
 Reinforces mystery 
 And when mystery is reinforced 
 That only means that knowledge has been lost 
 When you know who you really are 
 Peace and knowledge shines like a star 
 I'm only showin you a simple fact 
 It Takes A Nation of MILLIONS to Hold Us people Back 
 Which is wack, but we can correct that 
 Teach and learn what it is to be black 
 Cause they're teachin birds to be a cat 
 But ask yourself homeboy, why is that
