Sometimes

You just gotta

Go!
You would never know what you could ever be

If you never tried, you would never see
Stayed in Africa, we ain't never leave
So there wasn't no slaves in our history black
Wasn't no slave ships, wasn't no misery
Call me crazy, or isn't he?

See I fell asleep, and I had a dream
It was all black everything

Uh, and we ain't get exploited

White man ain't fear it, so he did not destroy it

We ain't work for free, see, they had to employ it

Built it up together, so we equally appointed

First 400 years, see, we actually enjoyed it

Constitution written by W.E.B DeBois
Wasn't no Reconstruction, Civil War got avoided

Little black sambo grows up to be a lawyer

Extra, extra, on the newsstands
Black woman voted head of Ku Klux Klan

Malcolm Little dies as an old man
Martin Luther King read the eulogy for him
Followed by Bill O'Reilly, who read from the Qu'ran
President Bush sends condolences from Iran

Where Fox News reports live

That Ahmadinejad wins the Mandela Peace Prize black
You would never know what you could ever be

If you never tried, you would never see

Stayed in Africa, we ain't never leave

So there wasn't no slaves in our history black
Wasn't no slave ships, wasn't no misery

Call me crazy, or isn't he?

See I fell asleep, and I had a dream
It was all black everything

Uh, and it ain't no projects

Keepin' it real's not an understood concept

Yeah, complexion's not a contest

'Cause racism has no context

Hip-hop ain't got a section called conscious

Everybody rappin' like crack never happened

Crips never occurred, no Bloods to attack them

Matter fact, no hood to attack in

Somalia's a great place to relax in

Fred Astaire was the first to do a backspin

The Rat Pack was a cool group of black men

That inspired five white guys called The Jacksons

Eminem fitted in, but then again

He inspired a black rapper tryna mimic him
And that's what really rose up out of Michigan

I signed a white rapper by the name of 50 Cent

You would never know what you could ever be

If you never tried, you would never see
Stayed in Africa, we ain't never leave

So there wasn't no slaves in our history black
Wasn't no slave ships, wasn't no misery

Call me crazy, or isn't he?

See I fell asleep, and I had a dream
It was all black everything
Uh, and I know this just a fantasy
I cordially invite you to ask, "Why can't it be?"
Now we can't do nothin' 'bout the past
But we can do something 'bout the future that we have
We can make it fast, or we can make it last
Every woman queen, and every man a king, and
When those color lines come, we can't see between
We just close our eyes 'til it's all black everything
You would never know what you could ever be
If you never tried, you would never see
Stayed in Africa, we ain't never leave
So there wasn't no slaves in our history black
Wasn't no slave ships, wasn't no misery
Call me crazy, or isn't he?
See I fell asleep, and I had a dream
It was all black everything
All black everything
Yeah, all black everything
Yeah, all black everything
