KRS-One - Who You Are lyrics

[KRS-One - Who You Are lyrics]

Imma switch up on y'all real quick
Racists in these places only see me as cattle
But I'm more like D'Jango on
The horse with the saddle
Put a racists head in the
Gravel with the burner harriet Tubman
John Brown and the one Nat Turner
I'm a learner, I keep my head in a book
So when a racist start talking
I could never be shook
I can never be took because
I'm knocking their block off
Like crack dealers used to say
Let's get this rock off

You're always blaming me
I'm not thе enemy, you are

Pеople ask why are you looting the stores
Why you burning down the business
And city that's yours
First of all the city ain't mine it's yours
Democracy's a joke when capitalists
Write the laws you critique my flaws and
Don't speak of yours
You only show the effects and
Never speak of the cause
I got no money, no help and no voice
With no way out I only got one choice
Brick through the glass
Rock through the window
Tear gas moving anyway that the wind blow
Rubber bullets overhead
Now we got to get low
But this was how slaves were
Treated from the get go
Robbery, invasion and rape
These are not criminal acts
These are the acts of the state
If you just waking up to this
Fact you a little late
For justice how long you think we gotta wait
Yeah, c'mon yeah, yeah, yeah, c'mon

You're always blaming me
I'm not the enemy you are
You're claiming unity
This time it's time you see who you are

Liberate you mind, living ain't a crime
Innovate the time, renovate the rhyme
Every line and rhyme you're using
Generates confusion and bring your
People a revolution winning not losing
Helping not using
Oppression, aggression and hate we refusing
If you really want change
Rewrite the constitution
But that's the one solution that
They are not doing
So we sharpen the blade, clean out the barrel
Pick up the rock and the bow and the arrow
Pull out the gas mask and the protest apparel
For justice Imma go into battle

You're always blaming me
I'm not the enemy you are
You're claiming unity
This time it's time you see who you are
Who you are who you are
You're always blaming me
I'm not the enemy you are
You're claiming unity
This time it's time you see who you are
Who you are who you are
