What Are The Lyrics For Shoot'n up and Gett'n High By Meshell Ndegeocello?
He lived two train stops away
I was a train ride away from heaven We signify about politics, low income housing Birth control and abortion The capitalistic hand around my throat Shootin' up dope to cope in this dehumanizing society We both found God when he O.D'd He found beauty in my black skin Amidst the cover girls and clairol ads Makin' no mistake what's white is right Livin' in a world where the TV shouts "Forget where you come from!" And damn I thought I was shootin' up Africa in my veins White man voodoo slow my brain the while man fights wars and enslaves All in God's name What ya trying to achieve with your sun tan lotion You want to keep me down keep me down Revolution against this racist institution The white man shall forever sleep with one eye open Dehumanize me. Criticize, set aside. Livin' in the midst of genocide I hear voices voices are what I hear Uprise would you die for your right |
