Lyrics:

You would never know

If you could ever be

If you never try

You would never see

Stayed in Africa

We ain't never leave

So there were no slaves in our history

Were no slave ships, were 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 feared 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 the W.E.B. Du Bois

Were no reconstructions, civil war got avoided

Little black ??? grows up to be a lawyer

Extra extra on the news stands

Black woman voted head of Ku Klux Klan

Malcolm Little dies as a old man

Martin Luther King read the eulogy for him

Followed by bill O'Reilly who read from the Quran

President bush sends condolences from Iran

Where fox news reports live

That ahmedinijad wins mandella peace prize

You would never know

If you could ever be

If you never try

You would never see

Stayed in africa

We ain't never leave

So there were no slaves in our history

Were no slave ships, were 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 is not an understood concept

Yea, complexions not a contest

Cuz racism has no context

Hip-hop ain't got a section called conscious

Everybody rappin like crack never happened

Crips never occurred nor bloods to attack them

Matter a fact no hood to attack in

Somalia is a great place to relax in

Fred Astaire was the first to do a backspin

The rat pack was cool group of black men

That inspired the five white guys called the jacksons

Eminem fitted in but then again he inspired a black rapper tryin to mimic him

And thats a really rose up out of michigan, the sign of white rapper by the name of 50 cent

You would never know

If you could ever be

If you never try

You would never see

Stayed in Africa

We ain't never leave

So there were no slaves in our history

Were no slave ships, were 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 it's just a fantasy

I cordially invite you to ask why can't it be

Now we can do nothing bout the past

But we can do something about the future that we have

We can make fast or we can make it last

Every woman queenin' and every man a kingin'

When those color lines come we can't seen between

We just close our eyes till its all black everything

You would never know

If you could ever be

If you never try

You would never see

Stayed in Africa

We ain't never leave

So there were no slaves in our history

Were no slave ships, were no misery, call me crazy, or isn't he

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

I would think that there is a sort of mismessaging in the phrase "all black everything". It does not mean black as in the race but rather as in the absence of seeing, that we will in blind to race, "We just close our eyes till its all black everything" is the only line that helps illuminate this meaning but it is clearly fine with white's being in the same place as successful blacks with the lines And thats a really rose up out of michigan, the sign of white rapper by the name of 50 cent"

true but things could have been done differently, slavery did not help.

as demonstrated in verse 3 "...Now we can do nothing bout the past But we can do something about the future that we have We can make fast or we can make it last Every woman Queenin’ and every man a Kingin’ When those color lines come we can’t see between We just close our eyes ’til it’s all black every-THING!" He means the past doesn't matter and we can still make it a world where no one sees color (race). Its goes even deep than that obviously but I'm sure you can go from there right.

I'm not trying to flame, but the whole slavery shit is getting a little old. Don't associate people of the same color. I aim that to the accuser and the accused. Some present blacks feel like they were relevant to their ancestry of slaves and look at many whites as no different than that of a slave-master. That diversity is what sets people apart and it's fucking annoying.
