Nighttrain

[Verse 1]

Land of the free, but the skin I'm in identifies me

So the people around me energize me

Callin' all aboard this train ride

Talkin' 'bout raw hardcore, leavin' frauds on the outside

But the bad thing is anyone can ride the train

And the reason for that is cause we look the same

Lookin' all around at my so called friend

Light skin to the brown, the black, here we go again

Homey over there knows Keith an, but he be thiefin'

I don't trust him, rather bust 'em up

Out goes his hand and I cough

He once stole from me, yeah I wanna cut it off

The black thing is a ride I call the nighttrain

It rides the good and the bad, we call the monkey trained

Trained to attack the black and it's true

Cause some of them lookin' just like you

[Verse 2]

Stayin' on the scene, sittin' on the train

See all the faces look about the same

There go the sellout who's takin' a ride like Cargo

Cause he deal the keys from Key Largo

Runnin' Nat narcotic, by George he got it

Takin' makin' the Gs erotic

And the fiends they scheme, so he can put 'em down

But his method is wreck 'em, I put 'em in the ground

Got the nerve as hell to yell brother man

He ain't black man better yet he's Pac Man

Known to murder his own, traitor on the phone

Ridin' the train, self-hater trained to sell pain

The master's toy, his little boy

Hard to avoid he look wit' it but he null 'n' void

Cause he ridin' the train you think he down for the cause

Cause his face lookin' just like yours

[Verse 3]

More of the same, insane who sayin'

I'm flowin' like nighttrain, runnin' the pain of the black reign

You look, you laugh, you doubt and go out

And I'm gone, but the bass goes on

To talk the talk, but walk the walk, the king of New York

Crack a lack, attack the black, to crack the back

Once again I test a friend with sincerity

Or consider him an enemy

Who am I to tell a lie, rather push the Bush

Hope the cracker gets crushed, I'm rollin' with Rush

Leader of the bum rush

Russian I ain't! Spreadin' like paint!

Lookin' at the pot I got and it's kickin'

But it ain't chicken, but it's livin' for a city, so sick 'n' tired

Of a scene buckwild

Piled in a file, senile or child

They said it never been no worser than this

I'm on the nighttrain, they hope ya don't miss it

Give ya what they got to give you, just go

You musn't just put your trust in every brother, yo

Some don't give a damn, cause they the other man

Worse than a bomb, posin' as Uncle Toms

Disgracin' the race, and blowin' up the whole crew

With some of them lookin' just like you
