We have a common enemy.. we have this in common
We have a common oppressor, a common exploiter
and a common dis-discriminator
So once we all, realize that we have this common enemy
then we unite -> Malcolm X

Yeah, education of a black man, and his people
Gather round School like School was a steeple
Black minds and black rights and black fights
Supernatural black man, and my black might
Some say that rap is just madness
I say I`m glad that I had this
urge and the courage, submerge
a dope beat and super dope poem
Sit on down and get a slap in the dome
Yeah it`s School, that`s my name
Rap - uh-huh, that`s my game
Love - for my brother
Black baby, that`s my color
I`m a black man
For the same procedure, you and I can use
to get our problem solved
That`s been done - all the nations came together
They were dark nations, not for the caucausians
Some of them will do this
Some of them will look
[Schoolly D]
Some wanna stop me, some you wanna rock me
On stage, son you like to jock me
Code Money my man you hear the freeze
{*scratchin*} Make em all say please
Bring the beat back, the beat back was hittin
I`m like a black man, I`m never quittin
Some say that School is absurd
Pull my pistol, make em say word
Give you speed and speed is what you need
and but I never never give you your greed
Because greed is for a devil, and not a rebel
I`m like school, I`ll put you on a level
Some say you be American
But I say be a black man, baby
Education of a black man
Uh-huh, School, that`s my name
Rap, uh-huh, that`s my game
Love - feel for my brother
Black, that`s my color baby, yeah
These, evil genies no they didn`t have nuclear weapons
They didn`t have jet planes
They didn`t have all of the power of Parliament
that the white man has
But they had ?
They were able to submerge ?
and agree on one thing..
Education of a black man
