[00:00.00]Anger in the Nation (LP版) - Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth
[00:07.24]"You know nowadays it seems like there's a lot of
[00:12.78]Bad things going on and I guess a lot of it
[00:16.76]From the way I see it seems to still stem from
[00:22.32]Lack of feelings on our parts it's
[00:25.34]And how we relate or communicate with our
[00:28.70]Fellow brothers and sisters"
[00:31.43]"Let's get together"
[00:33.23]"Let's get together"
[00:35.79]"Let's get together and raise"
[00:40.91]"Let's get together"
[00:43.30]"Let's get together"
[00:45.97]"Let's get together and raise"
[00:50.80]South Africa what does it mean
[00:53.00]To burst the scene or conquer like a philistene
[00:55.85]War or peace which one do you prefer
[00:58.15]Pass me my M-16 for the disaster
[01:00.59]A reason for the treason in a jet black season
[01:03.89] for peace justice and freedom
[01:05.75]For the Original Man architect of the Motherland
[01:07.82]Kings to Queens is the Asiatic Black plan
[01:11.34]Pre-Adam-ite first to see the light
[01:13.38]Way before Adam and Eve took flight
[01:16.25]Bless the seed of Abraham I came to jam
[01:19.13]Protest the teachings of another man
[01:21.39]Uncle Tom stay loyal so they boil
[01:23.38]I'm the alchemist with the twist from the true soil
[01:26.36]My blood brother Adolpho on the side of me
[01:28.63]My vision ain't blurry so don't even lie to me
[01:31.26]The rebirth the revival of our culture survival
[01:33.93]To elevate the black man is vital
[01:36.26]You gotta realize now what we're facing
[01:38.49]The floors I'm pacing from the anger in the nation
[01:41.74]"Let's get together"
[01:44.04]"Let's get together"
[01:46.58]"Let's get together and raise"
[01:51.62]"Let's get together"
[01:53.99]"Let's get together"
[01:56.51]"Let's get together and raise"
[02:01.50]Here's the situation from a darker view
[02:03.58]Night and day salt and pepper in the earthly stew
[02:06.14]But the salt think it taste better straight up superior
[02:08.99]Therefore the flavor of the pepper's inferior
[02:11.62]Incorrect though giving some heartburn
[02:14.03]Level of a devil better wait your turn
[02:16.37]And here is one recollection of imperfection
[02:19.37]No one should be judged by complexion
[02:21.65]Lie-braries; broken down as lies buried
[02:24.08]To force their beliefs to pilgrims all hurried
[02:26.82]Television; tell-a-lie-vision
[02:29.11]A schism; negative realism
[02:32.03]Four-hundred-and-thirty-five years til weak
[02:34.34]Mental deaf dumb and blindness put us to sleep
[02:36.54]Out of the dark comes light so the first can't be
[02:39.19]So Armaggedeon comes like a thief in the night
[02:41.86]Rednecks flex to my context but in the projects
[02:44.93]Some won't survive the next confrontation
[02:47.74]And I'm aware of segregation
[02:49.39]Pump your black fist for the anger in the nation
[02:52.68]"Let's get together"
[02:54.56]"Let's get together"
[02:57.51]"Let's get together and raise"
[03:02.53]"Let's get together"
[03:04.73]"Let's get together"
[03:07.56]"Let's get together and raise"
[03:32.60]Some walk slow cause the water's not shallow
[03:35.02]Let my people go you little Pharoah
[03:37.64]Listen how they word it be observant
[03:40.13]Then house negro; today civil servant
[03:42.64]I want to drop the bomb but remain calm
[03:45.19]Strong like the power of the Fruits of Islam
[03:47.81]Black is beautiful hot like fire
[03:50.01]Guess how many times they thought they killed the Messiah
[03:52.94]Malcolm X Dr King let's sing
[03:55.18]All around the world let freedom ring
[03:57.49]Reality is real so how do you feel
[03:59.96]From being kings on a throne to picking cotton in a field
[04:02.90]Your slavery is lack of identity
[04:05.21]One of the things that's not making you a friend of me
[04:08.19]What's your cause - aim rationale
[04:10.04]Cause I made up my mind I never scrape or bow
[04:12.88]But teach my own the sound of black unity
[04:15.20]Together we can rise and now's the opportunity
[04:18.14]The Tuskegee Experiment indeed it was big
[04:20.88]When they used the black man as a guinea pig
[04:23.40]Animalism pumped on a lower level
[04:26.00]But can only be the works of the devil
[04:28.44]And I'm telling you now the frustration
[04:30.58]The future's facing from the anger in the nation
[04:34.56]"Let's get together"
[04:36.08]"Let's get together"
[04:38.58]"Let's get together and raise"
[04:43.07]"Let's get together"
[04:46.16]"Let's get together"
[04:48.80]"Let's get together and raise"
[04:53.88]"Let's get together"
[05:02.04]"Let's get together"
[05:04.56]"Let's get together"
[05:09.31]"Let's get together"
[05:17.34]"Let's get together"
