Brand Nubian - Brand Nubian слова песни
Verse one: Lord JamarBrand Nubian functionA junction of threeCollaboration in a style that`s like funkTo slap palms, swing armsTap a soulCause no rock rolls down our hillYo black it`s kinda illWe don`t roll no rocks we just fillHeads with knowledge, pure foundationShowing and proving through the manifestationOf our name which is "Brand Nu"Brand Nubian and we`ve come toMake the people aware that black means first4000 years and we`re made to feel cursedBut now it`s our time to ruleStudent of the old, teacher of the new schoolMy inspiration is the five percent nationAs I cram, education was bornLike a thorn in your side I have swornNever to divide with Brand NubianVerse Two: Derrick X (Sadat X)You have to stand as a black manBrand NubianFrom the Sudan plus I never ranI`m from Africa, the central regionThere I grew and formed a legion of my forceSee me riding on a jet black horse at any costBrand Nubians will rise up and be the boss and show itAll fairness if you`re black and show awarenessYou can rally `round the flagStand tall, or don`t stand at allYou`re with the three and the three won`t sag to the floorBesides picture that I`m painting I can drawSee me work nine to five on my easelMy physical is strong and my mind is cock dieselBrand Nubian function in conjunction with the threeVerse 3: Grand PubaBrand NubianNot on a bandwagon following a fadMaking use of the knowledge that we already hadGrand Pu, here to send the mind into a frenzyI bet I`ll swing something this summer for the benziSeep into the mind the brain and activate the pelvisKeeping the blind deaf dumb and blind is ElvisMeaning old, so behold(The black, the beautiful, the bold)Now if this falls short I`ll try harderA wisdom to me is someone like AssataI`d like to say peace to BambaataTasa Kuma(?), Achmed, and KenyattaBrothers that`ll fight for the causeAnd they live in the boundaries of the righteous lawsTo put it exact dominant means blackBut some have a hard time trying to swallow thatNow we have some that are fakeWearing blue eyes and green eyes, come on gimme a breakBrand Nubian here to wake upTake off the makeup cause all it`ll do is cake upJust be real that`s how I feelBrand NubianVerse fourNubian(DX) A native or inhabitant of NubiaNubian(LJ) A member of one of a group of African tribes that formed a poweful Empire between Egypt and Ethiopia from the 6th to 14th century Nubian(GP) Any of several languages spoken in the central and northern Sudan And that`s why we call ourselves Brand Nubian(DX) As the midnight oil burns, our minds turn Make a mistake and be fake and you`ll burn We`re here to teach so you`d might as well learn That the tree has the knowledge for what you yearn Brand Nubian
