Lauryn Hill - Black Rage Lyrics
I simply remember all these kinds of thingsAnd then I don’t fear so bad…Black rage is founded who fed us self hatredLies and abuse while we waited and waitedSpiritual treasonThis grid and it's cagesBlack rage was founded on these kinds of thingsBlack rage is founded on dreaming and drainingThreatening your freedomTo stop your complainingPoisoning your waterWhile they say it's rainingThen call you madFor complaining, complainingOld time bureaucracyDrugging the youthBlack rage is founded on blocking the truthMurder and crimeCompromise and distortionSacrifice, sacrificeWho makes this fortune?Greed, falsely called progressSuch human contortionBlack rage is founded on these kinds of thingsSo when the dog bitesAnd the ceilingsAnd I’m feeling madI simply remember all these kinds of thingsAnd then I don’t fear so badFree enterpriseIs it myth or illusionForcing you back into purposed confusionBlack human traffickingOr blood transfusionBlack rage is founded on these kinds of thingsVictims of violenceBoth psyche and bodyLife out of context IS living ungodlyPolitics, politicsGreed falsely called wealthBlack rage is founded on denying of selfBlack human packagesTied and subsistenceHaving to justify your very existenceTry if you mustBut you can’t have my soulBlack rage is founded on ungodly controlSo when the dog bitesAnd the beatingsAnd I’m feeling so sadI simply remember all these kinds of thingsAnd then I don’t feel so bad
