Speak No Evil

[ Everlast ]

Yo yo yo yo yo yo yo

I'm in the studio with my brother, the Half Asiatic

You know, the Fraction of Black Skin and the Smite of White

It's my brother Kool Nick

We about to drop some science on this track about God and what not

You know, the world

So watch me get busy

[ VERSE 1: Everlast ]

Step up, bow your head and be greatful

You hunger for knowledge? I'm serving a plate full

A 12 course meal on a black plate of wax

So MC to feed (then sit back and relax)

And try and digest the data I fed you

I act and react this way cause I'm bred to

The color of my skin something I take pride in

Still my people insist on hidin

Behind the aAerican dream and its lies

(Like the Home of the Free and mom's apple pie

I thought this was a melting pot) I guess not

King stood up up for his rights and he got shot

I speak no evil

Yo Nick, do me a favor, man

Step in

[ VERSE 2: Kool Nick ]

This world is crazy, it must be sick

Be like Nick and get righteous real quick

Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Baptists

Protestants, Hare Krishnas, Catholics

Seek salvation and repentance

This rhyme is from the heart and I meant this

Jesus - shedded his blood for me

He hung on a cross (yo, you know the story)

Nowadays a lot of people are tryin

To worship satan, but you're gonna fry in

Hell, imagine burnin up forever

The forecast is heat, there's no change of weather

Damn, the devil will never twist this

Mind with the mark of the beast or the 666

To God there no one equal

That's why I speak no evil

I speak no evil

[ VERSE 3: Everlast ]

Listen to the story of my Savior

And how he gave up

Life so you could live

That's a hell of a gift to give

(Kick it, E)

Now as I take a look around

I don't see many people down

With my cause, huh, that's scary

Tryin to diss the Son of Mary

You're bein lured, so take the bait and

Fall into the trap of satan

Then your life is over without no sequel

That's why I speak no evil

I speak no evil

(This style is terrific) --] KRS-One

[ VERSE 4: Kool Nick ]

E (yo) this environment's strange

Brothers gettin shanked on the streets for gold chains

Some smoke crack, cocaine and jumbo

Brains so fried, when they talk they mumble

How could this be society

A ( ? ) place (where none of us wanna be)

People gettin judged by the color of skin tone

It wasn't like this way back with the Flinstones

It's odd, sometimes I get kept back

Because I'm half black, people can't accept that

Yo, accept me for what I am

But what can I do? Cause none of em give a damn

All they want is to drive a Mercedes

Have a million dollars (and live like the Brady's)

But anyways, time is windin, not rewindin

Look in your heart and start findin

Peace and love, no matter what your creed is

(Understand the knowledge at hand) and believe this

I speak no evil
