Текст песни Religion N Skin - Aiwal Turé

Shorty's a rock star Allah u Akbar
In the jungle where them good ole boys they go hard
Choppa in one hand the Bible up in the other
Say he love God but no love for his brothers
Love for the unseen but you see him everyday
You don't understand his ways so you throw his ass away
Bitch you looking to the ground but that's where them folks die
You can tell them about a heaven keep em looking to the sky
If heaven is really up yet the earth we say is round
Which way is really up got me thinking bout these clowns
See my mind it tell me right but this doctrine say I'm wrong
We were born to think right get the fuck from round me homes
You done fed my folks a lie in the name of some religion
Settle for simply nothing like the crumbs of a pigeon
If I tell 'em bout this picture its gon shake they ass up
Saturated in the mud still won't wake they ass up
Now I'm feeling fucked up

I try to make Salaat try to say the Lord's prayer
But its bullets flying round bombs bursting in the air
Often times I feel my enemy is coming in disguise
Eighty-five percent beefing over ten percent lies
See they beefing over bullshit belief and religion
They fighting over skin yeah these devils really tripping
They tell me turn the cheek in the name of the Lord
But it look like only a few benefitting from that word
Ya heard

Shorty got plenty of dreams that developed into visions
He tried to play the game neglecting his intuition
The Lord that he praise is the lord they praise too
Minimizing of these minds is the shit that they do
How the fuck they hate you in the name of a color
Fashioned up in the mud before there was any other
My blood bleed red I suppose yours does too
We all breathe air eat shit and fuck too
Mean mugging me with a grin rubbing my back and pretend
Unless I'm entertaining my skin is simply a sin
Even looking within the shade of a darker tone
Got me warring with outsiders and the place I call home
The crux of the matter since they call this game a race
The darkies catching up forever seems to be the case
A hundred yards to the win that brings a question from the heart
How you catch up when you given eighty yards head start
Motherfucking dead hard

I try to make Salaat Try to say the Lord's prayer
But its bullets flying round bombs bursting in the air
Often times I feel my enemy is coming in disguise
Eighty-five percent beefing over ten percent lies
See they beefing over bullshit belief and religion
They fighting over skin yeah these devils really tripping
They tell me turn the cheek in the name of the Lord
But it look like only a few benefitting from that word
Ya Heard

Religion n skin
Take your life because of your belief or the color of your skin
Nuts and glory Gods and guns are the things that men defend
Some say the end is the beginning well death must be where life begins

I try to make Salaat Try to say the Lord's prayer
But its bullets flying round bombs bursting in the air
Often times I feel my enemy is coming in disguise
Eight-five percent beefing over ten percent lies
See they beefing over bullshit belief and religion
They fighting over skin yeah these devils really tripping
They tell me turn the cheek in the name of the Lord
But it look like only a few benefitting from that word
Ya heard
